Report presenting the aerodynamic characteristics of several wing-fuselage combinations measured at a Mach number of 0.25. Each combination consisted of a triangular wing with an aspect ratio of 2.0 and body of revolution with a fineness ratio of 12.5. Results regarding wings in the presence of bodies, wing-body combinations, and dorsal fins are provided.

Report presenting an investigation in the high-speed tunnel to determine the effects on the chordwise pressure distributions of deflecting a flap-type aileron on a swept wing. The semispan 35 degree sweptback wing had an NACA 65A006 airfoil section, an aspect ratio of 4, and a taper ratio of 0.6.

Report discussing an investigation to determine the effect of wing leading-edge chord-extensions and drooped leading-edge flaps on the spin and spin-recovery characteristics of models of two swept-wing fighter airplanes. The investigation included chord-extensions in the plane of the wing and chord-extensions deflected in combination with drooped leading-edge flaps. The chord extensions were not found to have an appreciable effect on spin or spin-recovery characteristics when installed in the plane of the wing.

Report presenting an investigation in the transonic tunnel on a submerged inlet with a divergent-walled approach ramp to determine flow phenomena, pressure recovery, and external forces to provide correlation with available data obtained on similar inlets. Results regarding the pressure characteristics, aerodynamic forces, and performance comparisons are provided.

The intercycle evaporators in the Chemical Processing Plant are controlled by density-measuring instruments. Because of difficulties in controlling these evaporators in a satisfactory manner, a series of investigations was begun to measure the boiling points at the elevation of the CPP, and densities near boiling temperatures of a number of solutions in the uranyl nitrate-nitric acid-water system. From these data it was hoped to evaluate temperature sensitve devices as controllers for the evaporators.

"These notes are intended to serve as a summary of the current knowledge of properties of materials. In the future some need may exist for related information on methods od testing, design and fabrication. This issue presents information on thorium with subdivisions..."

Through the efforts of the Hanford Engineer Works a quantity of neptunium-237 was separated from uranium waste solutions by a modification of the standard plutonium precipitation process, This material, as concentrates, was shipped to Argonne for final isolation and purification of the neptunium.
