Proton Angular Distribution for 90 Mev Neutron-proton Scattering (open access)

Proton Angular Distribution for 90 Mev Neutron-proton Scattering

The angular distribution of the recoil protons in neutron-proton scattering at 90 Mev has been measured for angles between 5{sup o} and 65{sup o} from the direction of the neutron beam. The neutrons were produced by stripping 190 Mev deuterons in a 1/2 inch Be target in the 184-inch F.M. cyclotron. R. Serber has calculated the neutron energy distribution; it has a peak at 90 Mev and a half width of 27 Mev. This distributiQn has been checked experimentally for the neutrons by Wilson Powell and by W.Chupp, E.Gardner, and T.B.Taylor for the protons also produced by stripping. The neutrons were collimated by a two-inch hole through 8 feet of concrete. Thin paraffin scatters of known hydrogen and carbon content were used; the number of protons arising from neutron-carbon and neutron-air reactions was determined by using pure carbon scatters and by making blank runs. The scatters were placed in the beam outside of the concrete shielding at a point approximately 52 feet from the cyclotron target. The scattered protons were detected by a telescope of four proportional counters used in coincidence, and set at a constant distance from the scatterer but at a varying angle from the neutron beam.

Analytical determination of effect of water injection on power output of turbine-propeller engine (open access)

Analytical determination of effect of water injection on power output of turbine-propeller engine

From Introduction: "Water injection at the compressor inlet has been successfully used to increase the thrust of turbojet engines. References 1 and 2 indicate that the sea-level static thrust of a centrifugal-flow-type turbojet engine may be increased about 25 percent by use of liquid injection. Reference 3 indicates that greater thrust augmentation is possible at a compressor pressure ratio of 11 than of 4."

Investigation of interaction effects arising from side-wall boundary layers in supersonic wind-tunnel tests of airfoils (open access)

Investigation of interaction effects arising from side-wall boundary layers in supersonic wind-tunnel tests of airfoils

Report presenting an investigation to determine the cause for a discrepancy between theoretical and experimental pressure distributions found during a two-dimensional investigation of flapped airfoils in a 2- by 8-inch supersonic tunnel. The results indicated that a tunnel-boundary-layer and model-flow interaction effect on the flow over models mounted directly from the walls in supersonic wind tunnels exists.

Vibration of loosely mounted turbine blades during service operation of a turbojet engine with centrifugal compressor and straight-flow combustion chambers (open access)

Vibration of loosely mounted turbine blades during service operation of a turbojet engine with centrifugal compressor and straight-flow combustion chambers

Report presenting an experimental investigation to determine the vibration characteristics of loosely mounted turbine blades during service operation of a turbojet engine. High-temperature strain gages were used to measure turbine-blade vibrations. Results regarding oscillograph records, critical speeds and frequencies, vibratory-stress levels, and effect of tightening the blade mount are provided.

Pressure Distributions Over a Wing-Fuselage Model at Mach Numbers of 0.4 to 0.99 and at 1.2

Report presenting pressure distributions over a prolate spheroid of fineness ratio 6 and over a combination of this body with an NACA 65-010 wing section for a range of Mach numbers. Results regarding wall and sting interference, nature of flow over a model in the transonic region, development of supersonic flow from subsonic flow, and a comparison of experimental and theoretical flow at subsonic stream Mach numbers are provided.

Preliminary Correlation of the Effect of Compressibility on the Location of the Section Aerodynamic Center at Subcritical Speeds

Memorandum presenting a correlation of available two-dimensional airfoil data to determine the effects of compressibility on the location of the section aerodynamic center at low lift coefficients. The results indicate that large forward or rearward movements of the aerodynamic center with Mach number are possible.

General Characteristics of a Airspeed System using Fuselage Static Vents on a Swept-Wing Airplane (open access)

General Characteristics of a Airspeed System using Fuselage Static Vents on a Swept-Wing Airplane

"Studies have been made by the NACA wing-flow method of the use of fuselage static orifices between the wing and tail of a swept-wing airplane for possible application to service airspeed installations. The tests were made at zero angle of attack. The results indicate that, although the maximum errors are large, these locations are usable from the consideration that the local Mach numbers at the locations studied are sensitive to variation of the true Mach number within the test Mach number range of 0.7 to 1.2" (p. 1).
