Pressure available for cooling with cowling flaps (open access)

Pressure available for cooling with cowling flaps

Report presents the results of a full-scale investigation conducted in the NACA 20-foot tunnel to determine the pressure difference available for cooling with cowling flaps. The flaps were applied to an exit slot of smooth contour at 0 degree flap angle. Flap angles of 0 degree, 15 degrees, and 30 degrees were tested. Two propellers were used; propeller c which has conventional round blade shanks and propeller f which has airfoil sections extending closer to the hub. The pressure available for cooling is shown to be a direct function of the thrust disk-loading coefficient of the propeller.

High-altitude flight cooling investigation of a radial air-cooled engine (open access)

High-altitude flight cooling investigation of a radial air-cooled engine

"An investigation of the cooling of an 18-cylinder, twin-row, radial, air-cooled engine in a high-performance pursuit airplane has been conducted for variable engine and flight conditions at altitudes ranging from 5000 to 35,000 feet in order to provide a basis for predicting high-altitude cooling performance from sea-level or low altitude experimental results. The engine cooling data obtained were analyzed by the usual NACA cooling-correlation method wherein cylinder-head and cylinder-barrel temperatures are related to the pertinent engine and cooling-air variables. A theoretical analysis was made of the effect on engine cooling of the change of density of the cooling air across the engine (the compressibility effect), which becomes of increasing importance as altitude is increased" (p. 267).

Free-Spinning Tunnel Tests of a 1/24-Scale Model of the Grumman XTB3F-1 Airplane, TED No. NACA DE304

In accordance with a request of the Bureau of Aeronautics, Navy Department, tests were performed in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel to determine the spin and recovery characteristics of a 1/24 scale model of the Grumman XTB3F-1 airplane. The airplane is a two-place, midwing torpedo bomber equipped with a tractor propeller and an auxiliary jet engine. The effect of control setting and movement on the erect and inverted spin and recovery characteristics of the model were determined for the normal loading.

Theoretical motions of hydrofoil systems (open access)

Theoretical motions of hydrofoil systems

"Results are presented of an investigation that has been undertaken to develop theoretical methods of treating the motions of hydrofoil systems and to determine some of the important parameters. Variations of parameters include three distributions of area between the hydrofoils, two rates of change of downwash angle with angle of attack, three depths of immersion, two dihedral angles, two rates of change of lift with immersion, three longitudinal hydrofoil spacings, two radii of gyration in pitching, and various horizontal and vertical locations of the center of gravity. Graphs are presented to show locations of the center of gravity for stable motion, values of the stability roots, and motions following the sudden application of a vertical force or a pitching moment to the hydrofoil system for numerous sets of values of the parameters" (p. 1).

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.

Report discusses the results of testing to determine the low-speed longitudinal stability characteristics and spanwise distribution of load of a wing model with the leading edge swept back 63 degrees, an aspect ratio of 3.5, and a large amount of twist and camber. The results are compared to tests of a model of an untwisted and uncambered wing of identical plan form. Measurements of force, pressure-distribution, and comparison of theoretical and experimental span loading are described.

Mixing in a river (open access)

Mixing in a river

Many rivers are burdened with tributary streams of warm water and/or liquid wastes containing dissolved or suspended matter. The warm water and waste matter mix thoroughly with the river water some distance downstream from the point of entry of the tributary, but near the point of entry there may be high local temperatures or concentrations of waste. It is often necessary to know the local temperatures or concentrations of waste. The authors have used a formula for computing the turbulent mixing that takes place in such a situation; this formula fits quite well in the case of one Southern river.

Temperature Calculations For UO₂ Fit Tolerance Experiment (open access)

Temperature Calculations For UO₂ Fit Tolerance Experiment

Prevailing dimensional tolerance for sintered UO₂ reactor fuel components to be enclosed in metal jackets are expensively small. For instance, the PWR fuel pellet, as of November, 1955, consisted of a centerless ground UO₂ cylinder 0.3560" (+0.0005", -0.000") in diameter and 0.3527" (±0.0008") long. This pellet was designed to fit in a Zircaloy tube 0.3585" (+0.0005", -0.0000") inside diameter. The use of UO₂ shapes as pressed, or extruded, and sintered with diameter variations controlled to a tolerance of ±0.003" to ±0.005" would represent a fabrication cost saving worth considering. It is reasonable to assume that the annulus between a sintered UO₂ shape and its container will vary as a function of time of irradiation. Shrinkage from the can walls occurs with relatively low density (i.e., 85% of theoretical) sintered irradiation (cf. MTR Test GEH-4-3C). Contrary to this effect, the thermal expansion coefficient of UO₂ is about twice that of Zircaloy. Of possibly greater significance is the inevitable fractuce of dense UO₂ due to thermal stress. Such cracking effectively relocates the annular heat transfer gap to the interior of the oxide where the higher temperatures enhance the heat transfer coefficient. Thus, possibly the worst condition, with respect to heat transfer, is …
