From Summary: "Curves are presented that show the theoretical performance of the augmentation method for various amounts of water injected and the effects of varying flight Mach number, altitude, ambient-air temperature, ambient relative humidity, compressor pressure ratio, and inlet-diffuser efficiency. Numerical examples, illustrating the use of the psychrometric chart and the Mollier diagram in calculating both compressor-inlet and compressor-outlet conditions when water is injected at the compressor inlet, are presented."

Report presenting flight testing at high-subsonic and supersonic speeds at high Reynolds numbers to determine the zero-lift drag of a fin-stabilized body and a wing-body combination. The body was parabolic in profile, had a fineness ratio of 10, and a ratio of body frontal area to wing area to 0.306.

Report presenting an investigation to determine the longitudinal control characteristics of deflectable wing-tip elevators on a low-aspect-ratio, untapered, 45 degree sweptback semispan wing. The elevators had triangular and parallelogrammic plan forms and flat-plate profiles. Results include the elevator effectiveness and comparison of the elevator effectiveness of deflectable wing-tip controls and trailing-edge flap-type controls.

The Metal Conversion Process described herein is designed to handle the combined output of decontaminated uranium from both the Redox and T.B.P. processes. Thus the design rate is 13-1/8 short tons per day. The bulk of the equipment is to be installed in the presently unused 224-U Building. The process has been divided into three steps: (1) acid recovery and uranyl nitrate concentration; (2) uranyl nitrate conversion; (3) waste metal recovery product receivers. The major items of equipment and flows thru the plant are shown on the attached Engineers` Flow Sketches, numbered SK-2-50005, SK-2-50006, and SK-2-50047.
