An Electric Thrust Meter Suitable for Flight Investigation of Propellers

A lightweight instrument that utilizes resistance-wire electric strain gases to measure propeller-shaft thrust has been developed. A wind-tunnel investigation on a propeller installed, on a single-engine pursuit airplane showed that the instrument gave a reliable indication of propeller-shaft thrust to an accuracy of +/-2 percent within its calibrated range. No attempt was made to determine the relation of indicated shaft thrust to net propeller thrust.

Experimental investigation of liquid diborane - liquid oxygen propellant combination in 100-pound-thrust rocket engine (open access)

Experimental investigation of liquid diborane - liquid oxygen propellant combination in 100-pound-thrust rocket engine

Report presenting the specific impulse of liquid diborane and liquid oxygen over a range of mixture ratios in a 100-pound-thrust rocket engine operating at a combustion-chamber pressure of 300 pounds per square inch absolute. A faired curve through the experimental data had approximately the same shape as the theoretical curve.
