Two rectangular wings of aspect ratio 4 were flutter tested in a supersonic wind tunnel at Mach numbers 1.6 and 2.0 using a technique in which a structural stiffness was varied to give flutter at the Mach number. The results ...
This report surveys and, wherever possible, correlates experimental data available in the united Kingdom up to January 1953 on heat transfer by forced convection to bodies moving through the air at supersonic speeds (or ...
This Paper is intended as an introduction to the study of fluid flow and heat transfer in rotating ducts, and to serve as a basis for discussion of this field of work. The interest in this subject results mainly from the ...
Performance reduction methods will soon be required for routine tests of turbopropeller aircraft. A survey of the types of methods available has therefore been made to find which type seemed likely to be most useful. The ...
A survey of the predominant harmonic components of the alternating pressures is made for three centrifugal compressors, three axial-flow compressors and a single-stage turbine to ascertain the forces exciting vibration in ...
Opinion seems still unsettled on the aerodymamic merit of swept wings in supersonic flight. To elucidate this, Ackeret's theory of two-dimensional wave reaction is here extended to include sweep. The formulae so derived ...
