Sterility Produced in Mice by Deuterium Oxide

Sterility in C{sub 57} and Swiss mice has been produced by substituting D{sub 2}O for a part of the drinking water. The effective range lies between 5% and 30% D{sub 2}O. It appears that the effect is greater in C{sub 57} males than females and that the size and viability of the litter is affected.

Fabrication of Dispersed Uranium Fuel Elements Using Powder-Metallurgy Techniques (open access)

Fabrication of Dispersed Uranium Fuel Elements Using Powder-Metallurgy Techniques

Abstract: "Fabrication techniques for producing dispersion fuel elements with cores of 30 volume per cost of UC, U2Tl, U3Si, or U6Ni dispersed in Zircology 2 and 30 volume per cent of UC or UN dispersed in Type 18-8 stainless steel have been investigated. Roll-clad plate-type elements of all these compositions may be fabricated by powder-metallurgy methods in such a manner that good core-to-cladding bonds and cores with uniform dispersions of discrete uranium-composed particles are obtained. From the standpoint of fabricability, elements containing UC is Zircology 2, UC in stainless steel, and UN in stainless steel are the most promising. The UN in stainless steel has the best corrosion resistance in 680 F degassed water; however, UC in stainless steel has the best resistance to corrosion in 700 F NaK."

Two-dimensional airfoil characteristics of four NACA 6A-series airfoils at transonic Mach numbers up to 1.25 (open access)

Two-dimensional airfoil characteristics of four NACA 6A-series airfoils at transonic Mach numbers up to 1.25

"A two-dimensional wind-tunnel investigation of the flow and force characteristics of four NACA 6A-series airfoils with thickness ratios of 4, 6, and 9 percent has been conducted in the Langley airfoil test apparatus at at transonic Mach numbers between 0.8 and 1.25. The Reynolds number range for these tests varied from 2.6 x 10(6) to 2.8 x 10(6). As was expected, the airfoils exhibited a smooth transition in force coefficients from a Mach number of 1.0 to the values obtained at the higher speeds. Lift-curve slope and maximum lift-drag ratio correlated very well on a basis of the transonic similarity laws at Mach numbers above 1.0, but below that value the correlation was not good" (p. 1).

Aerodynamic heating of a thin, unswept, untapered, multiweb, aluminum-alloy wing at Mach numbers up to 2.67 as determined from a free-flight investigation of a rocket-propelled model (open access)

Aerodynamic heating of a thin, unswept, untapered, multiweb, aluminum-alloy wing at Mach numbers up to 2.67 as determined from a free-flight investigation of a rocket-propelled model

From Introduction: "The heat-transfer data calculated from measured temperatures are compared with values calculated by the theory of Van Driest for a flat plate with laminar and turbulent boundary layers. In addition, the heat-transfer data from the flight tests are compared with data obtained from the Langley Structures Research Division of ground tests of an identical wing at a Mach number approximately equal to 1.99 in the pre-flight jet of the Langley Pilotless Aircraft Research Station at Wallops Island, Va. The stream static pressure is maintained at about 1 atmosphere, the free-stream temperature at about 75^o F, and the stagnation temperature at approximately 500 ^o F (ref.1)."

A Brief Analog Investigation of Inertia Coupling in Rolling Maneuvers of an Airplane Configuration Using a Variable-Incidence Wing as the Longitudinal Control (open access)

A Brief Analog Investigation of Inertia Coupling in Rolling Maneuvers of an Airplane Configuration Using a Variable-Incidence Wing as the Longitudinal Control

"An analog computer study was made in order to investigate the inertia coupling in rolling maneuvers of an airplane configuration utilizing a variable-incidence wing for longitudinal control. A five-degree-of-freedom system of equations was used, and only one set of flight conditions was included in this study. The results, when compared to those for a conventional tail-control airplane, indicated significant advantages for the variable-incidence-wing type of control in reducing undesired dynamic effects during rolling maneuvers" (p. 1).

Drop burning rates of hydrocarbon and nonhydrocarbon fuels (open access)

Drop burning rates of hydrocarbon and nonhydrocarbon fuels

An investigation of the burning rates of single drops of 15 hydrocarbon and nonhydrocarbon fuels in quiescent air at room temperature and pressure. The drop burning rates were found to be proportional to drop diameter. The experimentally determined drop burning rates were in orderly agreement with those predicted by theoretical analysis, but the absolute values differed significantly.

A Fuselage Addition to Delay Drag-Rise Mach Number of Subsonic Airplanes at Lifting Conditions (open access)

A Fuselage Addition to Delay Drag-Rise Mach Number of Subsonic Airplanes at Lifting Conditions

"The addition of fuselage volume, concentrated on top of the forward portion of the fuselage, for the purpose of delaying the drag-rise Mach number of subsonic airplanes at lifting conditions is investigated. The additions have been designed on the basis of the area rule and other important considerations to provide greater practicability of application compared with shapings previously investigated. The addition delayed the drag-rise Mach number by an increment of approximately 0.03 for a configuration having a wing with moderate thickness and 35 deg of sweepback at a lift coefficient of 0.3. A lesser delay was obtained for a configuration with a thicker wing. The additions increase the nonlinearities of the variations of pitching moment with lift" (Abstract).

Inert Atmospheres in Non-Vacuum Chambers for Welding Applications (open access)

Inert Atmospheres in Non-Vacuum Chambers for Welding Applications

In the HRP Welding program, a major part of the welding and fabrication, and some of the testing, is performed using an inert atmosphere. the use of the inert gas consumable arc welding process and dry box welding or other work in a dry box comes within this category. Since much of the work in the project make use of, or requires, inert atmospheres, a general discussion follows of the methods used, description of equipment, processes, quality of atmospheres, purity requirements, kinetics of metal-gas reactions, and the proper application of the equipment and methods use din obtaining the desired results.
