The Use of Two-Dimensional Section Data to Estimate the Low-Speed Wing Lift Coefficient at Which Section Stall First Appears on a Swept Wing (open access)

The Use of Two-Dimensional Section Data to Estimate the Low-Speed Wing Lift Coefficient at Which Section Stall First Appears on a Swept Wing

Report discusses a procedure for estimating the wing lift coefficient for and spanwise location of the first occurrence of section stall on a swept wing. It has been modified from a method used to calculate the same information for unswept wings. The effects of split flaps, leading-edge modifications, and fences are described.

Vaporization rates and heat-transfer coefficients for pure liquid drops (open access)

Vaporization rates and heat-transfer coefficients for pure liquid drops

Report presenting an investigation to determine the vaporization rates of pure liquid drops vaporizing under conditions similar to those encountered in aircraft combustion systems using a heat-balance equation. Results regarding the analysis and experimental results are provided.

Velocity and temperature fields in circular jet expanding from choked nozzle into quiescent air (open access)

Velocity and temperature fields in circular jet expanding from choked nozzle into quiescent air

The Mach number and temperature profiles in jets expanding from convergent and convergent-divergent nozzles are presented for several values of nozzle-exit pressure ratio. The effects of jet temperature, Reynolds number, and humidity on jet spreading are briefly evaluated. The results indicated that the downstream Mach number profiles for a heated jet are slightly narrower than those for a unheated jet, whereas the downstream temperature profiles were unaffected by nozzle temperature change, and that the effects of Reynolds number and humidity were negligible.
