Calculations of Laminar Heat Transfer Around Cylinders of Arbitrary Cross Section and Transpiration-Cooled Walls With Application to Turbine Blade Cooling

"An approximate method for the development of flow and thermal boundary layers in the laminar region on cylinders with arbitrary cross section and transpiration-cooled walls is obtained by the use of Karman's integrated momentum equation and an analogous heat-flow equation. Incompressible flow with constant property values throughout the boundary layer is assumed. The velocity and temperature profiles within the boundary layer are approximated by expressions composed of trigonometric functions" (p. 339).

Some Effects of Spanwise Aileron Location and Wing Structural Rigidity on the Rolling Effectiveness of 0.3-Chord Flap-Type Ailerons on a Tapered Wing Having 63 Degrees Sweepback at the Leading Edge and Naca 64A005 Airfoil Sections (open access)

Some Effects of Spanwise Aileron Location and Wing Structural Rigidity on the Rolling Effectiveness of 0.3-Chord Flap-Type Ailerons on a Tapered Wing Having 63 Degrees Sweepback at the Leading Edge and Naca 64A005 Airfoil Sections

Report presenting an investigation of some effects of aileron spanwise location and wing structural rigidity on the rolling power of 0.3-chord plain, flap-type ailerons on a wing with a taper ratio of 0.25, an aspect ratio of 3.5, and swept back 63 degrees at the leading edge. Results regarding the aeroelastic effects and aileron span and spanwise location are provided.

The torsional deflections of several propellers under operating conditions (open access)

The torsional deflections of several propellers under operating conditions

Report presenting propeller-blade torsional-deflection data obtained during an investigation of the pressure distribution on constant-chord solid aluminum-alloy blades differing only in camber and thickness. Testing indicated that thinner blades were able to produce greater amounts of deflection. Results regarding torsional deflections are also provided.
