Component and over-all performance evaluation of an axial-flow turbojet engine over a range of engine-inlet Reynolds numbers (open access)

Component and over-all performance evaluation of an axial-flow turbojet engine over a range of engine-inlet Reynolds numbers

Report presenting an investigation in an altitude test chamber to evaluate the performance of an axial-flow turbojet engine over a range of engine-inlet Reynolds numbers. Reducing the engine inlet Reynolds number resulted in a reduction of corrected air flow and compressor efficiency but did not affect the compressor pressure ratio at a given corrected engine speed.

Effect of trailing edge thickness on lift at supersonic velocities (open access)

Effect of trailing edge thickness on lift at supersonic velocities

Report presenting measurements of lift made on various rectangular-plan-form wings differing in trailing-edge thickness, profile shape, maximum thickness ratio, and aspect ratio. Experiments were conducted at a range of Mach numbers, Reynolds numbers, and wings with and without boundary-layer trips. Results regarding a comparison of experimental results with theory at moderate supersonic Mach numbers and calculations for hypersonic Mach numbers are provided.

Survey of some preliminary investigations of supersonic diffusers at high Mach numbers (open access)

Survey of some preliminary investigations of supersonic diffusers at high Mach numbers

From Introduction: "Design studies of long-range supersonic missiles indicate the Mach number range of 3 to 4 to be of considerable promise. Accordingly, the NACA is conducting research on the performance of a wide variety of supersonic diffusers in this range. The initial phase of this research is concerned primarily with the characteristics of conventional axially symmetric diffusers operating at design values of flight Mach number."
