Investigation of Internal Film Cooling of 1000-Pound-Thrust Liquid-Ammonia - Liquid-Oxygen Rocket-Engine Combustion Chamber (open access)

Investigation of Internal Film Cooling of 1000-Pound-Thrust Liquid-Ammonia - Liquid-Oxygen Rocket-Engine Combustion Chamber

Memorandum presenting an investigation of internal film cooling of the combustion chamber of a 1000-pound-thrust liquid-ammonia-liquid-oxygen rocket engine. The three coolants studied were water, ethyl alcohol, and liquid ammonia. Results regarding heat-transfer results, liquid film-cooled length, correlation of heat-transfer data, and effect of film cooling on performance are provided.

Subsonic Mach and Reynolds number effects on the surface pressures, gap flow, pressure recovery, and drag of a nonrotating NACA 1-series E-type cowling at an angle of attack of 0 degrees (open access)

Subsonic Mach and Reynolds number effects on the surface pressures, gap flow, pressure recovery, and drag of a nonrotating NACA 1-series E-type cowling at an angle of attack of 0 degrees

Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation to evaluate the effects of Mach and Reynolds number on the characteristics of the internal and external flow about an E-type cowling suitable for a turbine-propeller power-plant installation. Results regarding the pressure-coefficient distributions, critical Mach number, cowl-gap flow, ham recovery, and wake-survey drag are provided.
