Testing was conducting to evaluate the effects of support interference on the drag characteristics of two bodies of revolution at zero angle of attack at Mach number 1.5. Drag and base-pressure measurements are made for a variety of Reynolds numbers to determine the effect of varying the length or diameter of the rear support.

Description of the standards used by the electrical power industry for the measurement of the electrical quantities.

As part of a general investigation of propellers at high forward speeds, tests of two-blade propellers having the NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 and NACA 4-(10)(08)-03 blade designs were made in the Langley 8-foot high-speed tunnel through a range of blade angle from 20 degrees to 60 degrees for forward Mach numbers from 0.165 to 0.70 to determine the effect of camber and compressibility on propeller characteristics. Results previously reported for similar tests of a two-blade propeller having the NACA 4-(3)(08)-03 blade design are included for comparison.

Powered models of three different flying boats were landed in oncoming wave of various heights and lengths. The resulting motions and acceleration were recorded to survey the effects of varying the trim at landing, the deceleration after landing, and the size of the waves. One of the models had an unusually long afterbody. The data for landing with normal rates of deceleration indicated that the most severe motions and accelerations were likely to occur at some period of the landing run subsequent to the initial impact.

Report presenting a test-stand investigation conducted on a rectangular ramjet engine design for installation in an aircraft wing. The engine operated without excessive engine noise or vibration over the entire range of operating conditions. Results regarding inlet velocity, exhaust flame characteristics, fuel-air ratio, and total-temperature rise are provided.
