Effects of Some Primary Variables of Rectangular Vortex Generators on the Static-Pressure Rise Through a Short Diffuser
Memorandum presenting an investigation of a 2:1 area ratio conical diffuser of length equal to the inlet diameter with separate variation of several basic parameters for simple nontwisted counterrotating rectangular vortex generators over a considerable range of inlet-boundary-layer thickness. The maximum values of static-pressure rise were determined for angle of attack, spacing, aspect ratio, and span-to-inlet boundary-layer thickness. Results for the diffuser with no vortex generators, effects of selectable vortex-generator variables, effect of inlet-boundary-layer displacement thickness, and use of the maximum indicated vortex-generator design values are provided.

MTA Target Equations
In solving the two-group, two medium equations for neutron diffusion in a finite one-dimensional multiplying system, the equations in each medium can be solved, and the boundary conditions used to determine the coefficients. This direct attack involves eight simultaneous linear equations. The opportunities for error are numerous, and, frequently, a great deal of accuracy is lost by subtractions; hence, it is felt that an alternative method of solution, in which numerical errors would be less likely to occur, would be desirable.

Some Wind-Tunnel Results of an Investigation of the Flutter of Sweptback- and Triangular-Wing Models at Mach Number 1.3
Memorandum presenting flutter tests of untapered, low-aspect-ratio, sweptback-wing models and of triangular-wing models of solid magnesium, aluminum, and steel construction in an intermittent supersonic wind tunnel at Mach number 1.3. Flutter data are presented for 31 sweptback wing models and 24 triangular-wing models. The flutter boundaries are indicated on plots of streamwise thickness ratio and aspect ratio.
