Memorandum presenting the pressure recovery, mass flow, and drag of a twin-scoop inlet-body combination measured at Mach numbers 1.4 and 1.7 at zero angle of attack. Tests were made of the inlet-body combination with an ogival forebody, an ogival forebody with a small amount of bluntness near the tip, and two forebodies of elliptical longitudinal section. Results regarding the effect of forebody bluntness on pressure recovery, effect of forebody bluntness on mass-flow ratio, and the effects of forebody bluntness on drag are provided.

From Introduction: "The purpose of this report is to present the results of the investigation, to compare the coolant-flow requirements of the two configurations, and to show what advantages an air-cooled internal-strut-supported blade may have over an equivalent shell-supported air-cooled blade."

"The modifications in the pressure distributions and the aerodynamic coefficients associated with additions of heat to the two-dimensional supersonic in viscid flow field adjacent to the lower surface of of a 5-percent-thickness symmetrical circular-arc wing are presented in this report. The pressure distributions are obtained by the use of graphical method which gives the two-dimensional supersonic inviscid flow field obtained with moderate heat addition. The variation is given of the lift-drag ratio and of the aerodynamic coefficients of lift, drag, and moment with free stream Mach number, angle of attack, and parameters defining extent and amount of heat addition" (p. 1).

Report presenting an investigation conducted with a conventional turbojet fuel, MIL-F-5624 (JP-3), and a low-volatility, high-density hydrocarbon, monomethylnaphthalene, in a vaporizing-type combustor to determine the combustion efficiency for variations in inlet-air conditions and fuel flow and to what extent fuel vaporization would minimize differences in combustion efficiency between the two fuels. Results regarding the performance of the combustor, correlation parameter, pressure-drop characteristics, and other miscellaneous observations are provided.
