Investigations on Reductions of Friction on Wings, in Particular by Means of Boundary Layer Suction (open access)

Investigations on Reductions of Friction on Wings, in Particular by Means of Boundary Layer Suction

Memorandum presenting investigation on reductions of friction on wings, especially by means of boundary-layer suction. The report is broken up into several sections, including: causes of transition, laminar profiles with the transition taking place, laminar boundary-layer suction, investigation of the laminar pressure increase, investigation of the slot flow for laminar boundary-layer suction with single slots, tests about keeping a boundary layer for high Reynolds laminar with the aid of boundary-layer suction, and an investigation of a slightly-cambered laminar suction profile of 10.5-percent thickness.

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of Icing of an Engine Cooling-Fan Installation (open access)

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of Icing of an Engine Cooling-Fan Installation

Note presenting an investigation of the icing characteristics and means of ice protection of a typical radial-engine cooling-fan installation. The icing of the unprotected cooling-fan installation was found to present a serious operational problem. Results regarding icing, steam heat de-icing, alcohol de-icing, and electrical heat de-icing are provided.

A Flight Investigation of the Thermal Performance of Air Heated Propeller (open access)

A Flight Investigation of the Thermal Performance of Air Heated Propeller

Note presenting the thermal performance of an air-heated propeller, installed on a test airplane, as evaluated by observations of the ice-prevention properties of the propeller during flight in natural icing conditions and by the collection of thermal data on the propeller during flight in clear air and in clouds at temperatures above freezing. The results indicated that the air-heated-propeller installation tested would offer little or no protection to the leading-edge regions of the propeller during flight in severe natural-icing conditions.

The Calculation of the Heat Required for Wing Thermal Ice Prevention in Specified Icing Conditions (open access)

The Calculation of the Heat Required for Wing Thermal Ice Prevention in Specified Icing Conditions

Note presenting a verification of previously derived equations for calculating the rate of heat transfer from airfoils in icing conditions, which have come about as a result of an investigation of the meteorological conditions conducive to the formation of ice on aircraft and a study of the process of airfoil thermal ice prevention. The results indicated that knowledge of these components has increased to a point where the design of heated wings on a fundamental, wet-air basis can now be undertaken with reasonable certainty.

A Method for Numerically Calculating the Area and Distribution of Water Impingement on the Leading Edge of an Airfoil in a Cloud (open access)

A Method for Numerically Calculating the Area and Distribution of Water Impingement on the Leading Edge of an Airfoil in a Cloud

Note presenting a method for determining, by step-by-step integration, the trajectories of water drops around any body in two-dimensional flow for which the streamline velocity components are known or can be computed. The equations are presented in general form and then, to illustrate the procedure, water-drop trajectories are calculated about a 12-percent-thick symmetrical Joukowski profile chosen to simulate an NACA 0012 section. The method provides a means for the relatively rapid calculation of the trajectory of a single drop without the utilization of a differential analyzer.
