"An analytical method is presented for calculating the hydrodynamic impact loads and motions experienced by seaplane floats and hulls with scalloped (fluted) bottoms. The analysis treats vertical impact at zero trim in addition to the more general problem of the step impact of a seaplane at positive trim where the flight path is oblique to the keel and to the water surface. Also considered are the transformations required to represent impacts into waves" (p. 109).

It was desired to investigate the precipitation of UO{sub 4} in acid solution, in order to determine the suitability of this reaction for use in the purification of uranium. A series of tests was performed to establish the conditions for precipitation of UO{sub 4}. It was found that uranium could be completely precipitated from pure uranyl sulfate solution at a pH of 2.5 to 3.5, with only silght excess of H{sub 2}O{sub 2}. The presence of sodium sulfate interferred with complete precipitation. It was established that vanadium was preferentially oxidized, when present.

Report presenting testing on a prismatic float model to determine the relationship between the vertical landing acceleration and flight-path angle for seaplanes landing in smooth water. Results regarding the maximum load factor, maximum impact normal acceleration, pressures, and stability of landings are provided.

Description of a velocity analyzer (with diagrams) is given. It is a device for measuring the velocities of charged particles which comprises pairs of spaced electrodes, a collector for charged particles, and means for propelling charged particles in a direction so as to pass between the pairs of electrodes. The pairs of electrodes and the collector are so arranged to permit passage of the charged particles between them to the collector plate. Means are provided for applying an alternating substantially square wave potential of known frequency to the pairs of electrodes so that adjacent pairs are opposite in phase and so that one half-cycle of the wave appears as zero potential between the pairs of electrodes.

The conformal-mapping method of the Cartesian mapping function is applied to the determination of the velocity distribution on arbitrary two-dimensional duct-inlet shapes such as are used in wing installations. An idealized form of the actual wing-duct inlet is analyzed. The effects of leading edge stagger, inlet-velocity ratio, and section lift coefficients on the velocity distribution are included in the analysis. Numerical examples are given and, in part, compared with experimental data.

"Strain-gage measurements were taken under operating conditions from blades of various stages of the 19XB axial-flow compressor in an effort to determine the reason for failures in the seventh and tenth stages. First bending-mode vibrations were detected in the first five stages of the compressor caused by each integral multiple of rotor speed from three through ten. Lead-wire failures in the last five stages resulted in incomplete data" (p. 1).

Report presenting an investigation in the two-dimensional low-turbulence tunnels to develop optimum double-slotted-flap configurations for seven thin NACA airfoil sections. Each was equipped with the same flaps and measured at the same Reynolds numbers. Results regarding the lift characteristics and pitching moment are provided.

Report presenting an investigation at low speed and high Reynolds number to determine the air loads over a double slotted flap on the NACA 65(216)-215, a = 0.8 airfoil section. Results indicated that the loads on the flap change slowly with variation of angle of attack but quickly with the flap deflected. The main effect of the double-slotted flap is that it causes the airfoil to carry a greater load without stalling.

Report presenting force tests in the 4 by 6 foot vertical tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of an NACA 0009 tapered semispan wing equipped with a plain and a balanced flap with three different included angles on the trailing edge. Results regarding lift, hinge moment, drag, pitching moment, and a comparison of calculated values with experimental values of finite-wing characteristics are provided.

Note presenting an investigation of the icing characteristics and means of ice protection of a typical radial-engine cooling-fan installation. The investigation was made at various icing and performance conditions in the icing research tunnel of the NACA Cleveland laboratory. The icing of the unprotected cooling-fan installation was found to present a serious operation problem.

Note presenting an investigation of the icing characteristics and means of ice protection of a typical radial-engine cooling-fan installation. The icing of the unprotected cooling-fan installation was found to present a serious operational problem. Results regarding icing, steam heat de-icing, alcohol de-icing, and electrical heat de-icing are provided.

Note presenting testing to determine the longitudinal stability characteristics with and without power of a typical low-wing, single-engine airplane model with flaps neutral, with a full-span single slotted flap, and with a full-span double slotted flap. With flaps deflected, lift increments were increased by 0.16 for the single slotted flap and 0.42 for the double slotted flap when power was applied. Results regarding lift characteristics, landing characteristics, longitudinal stability, and longitudinal control and trim are provided.
