From Summary: "The results of two investigations, one to determine the relative merits of four experimental and two conventional design 75-millimeter-bore (size 215) cylindrical roller bearings and one to determine the relative merits of nodular iron and bronze as cage materials for this size and type of bearing, are presented in this report. Nine test bearings were operated over a range of dn values (product of bearing bore in mm and shaft speed in r.p.m) from 0.3 x 10(6) to 2.3 x 20(6), radial loads for 7 to 1613 pounds, and oil flows from 2 to 8 pounds per minute with a single-jet circulatory oil feed. Of the six bearings used to evaluate designs, four were experimental types with outer-race-riding cages and inner-race-guided rollers, and two were conventional types, one with outer-race-guided rollers and cage and one with inner-race-guided rollers and cage."

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over the motor fuels sold during the winter of 1953-1954. Properties of the fuel samples are presented. This report includes tables, and maps.

Report presenting drag data obtained from flight tests of two scale rocket-powered models of the Chance Vought XF8U-1 airplane. Results regarding the minimum drag coefficient and effect of nose modifications are provided.

Report presenting an investigation with sting-mounted rocket-propelled models in free flight at approximately zero lift to determine the effect of wing flexibility on the damping-in-roll characteristics of a wing-body combination over a range of Mach numbers.

"An investigation at a free-stream Mach number of 2.02 was made to determine the effects of a propulsive jet on a wing surface located in the vicinity of a choked convergent nozzle. Static-pressure surveys were made on a flat surface that was located in the vicinity of the propulsive jet. The nozzle was operated over a range of exit pressure ratios at different fixed vertical distances from the flat surface. Within the scope of this investigation, it was found that shock waves, formed in the external flow because of the presence of the propulsive jet, impinged on the flat surface and greatly altered the pressure distribution" (p. 1).

Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation of a model equipped with a 60 degree delta wing and a 60 degree delta horizontal all-movable canard control surface to determine the stability, control, and canard-surface hinge-moment characteristics at low speeds and at a Reynolds number of 9 x 10(exp 6). Two longitudinal positions of the canard surface were tested. Results regarding lift and pitching moment, drag, and hinge moment are provided.

The carbon cycle of photosynthesis is briefly reviewed in its entirety and the experiments involving it which led to the implication of disulfide rupture in photosynthesis are indicated. A review of the organic, physical and photochemistry of disulfides, with particular reference to the five-membered disulfide rings as they appear in thioctic acid, is given.

Report presenting the total zero-lift drag of a fin-stabilized parabolic body of revolution designated the RM-10 using scale models launched from a gun through still air at a range of Mach and Reynolds numbers. Results indicated that the location of transition had an important effect on the drag of the configuration.

"Data on atmospheric turbulence in the vicinity of thunderstorms obtained during a flight evaluation of an experimental C band (5.5 cm) airborne radar are summarized. The turbulence data were obtained with an NACA VGH recorder installed in a United Air Lines DC-3 airplane" (p. 1).

Discussing the study of uranium deposits in the Wind River District in Wyoming, undertaken to determine the relationships between the mineralogy and uranium equilibrium state and the field geology of the deposits.

Report presenting an investigation of several two-dimensional supersonic inlet configurations at a Mach number of 2.01 and an angle of attack of 0 degrees. Two inlets similar in supersonic diffuser design but one with a subsonic diffusers about half the length of the other one were also investigated. Results regarding the inlet design, pressure recovery, shadowgraphs, and suggestions for inlet improvement are provided.
