Free-Spinning-Tunnel Tests of a 1/24-Scale Model of the North American XP-86 Airplane (open access)

Free-Spinning-Tunnel Tests of a 1/24-Scale Model of the North American XP-86 Airplane

"A spin investigation has been conducted in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel on a 1/24-scale model of the North American XP-86 airplane. The effects of control settings and movements upon the erect and inverted spin and recovery characteristics of the model were determined for the design gross weight loading. The long-range loading was also investigated and the effects of extending slats and dive flaps were determined" (p. 1).

Turbidity coagulant for Columbia River water (open access)

Turbidity coagulant for Columbia River water

In this document, information about the need for a better compound to for filtering process water from the production reactors. It was found that the natural turbidity in the Columbia River was high enough to necessitate the use of a coagulant to minimize the passage of iron through filters. Tests indicated that Ferrisul was the better of the two compounds tested.
