Unknown author (His Majesty's Stationery Office, 01/01/1910)
Report of the Advisory Committee for Aeronautics for the Year 1910-11

Unknown author (His Majesty's Stationery Office, 1911)
Report of the Advisory Committee for Aeronautics for the Year 1911-12

Unknown author (His Majesty's Stationery Office, 1912)
Report of the Advisory Committee for Aeronautics for the Year 1912-13

Unknown author (His Majesty's Stationery Office, 1913)
Second report on the twisting of propeller blades. Supplementary to R. & M. 454

Griffith, A.A.; Hague, B. (1918)

The method of investigating the twist of propeller blades, which was developed in R. & M. 454, is interpreted mathematically by making a certain assumption as to the shape of the cross-sections. A general equation expressing ...
The design of a sensitive yawmeter

Pannell, J. R.; Jones, R. (1918)

The investigation was undertaken in response to a request from the Technical Department of the Air Board for information as to the most sensitive form of yawmeter, and for a calibration curve for such an instrument. The ...
The distribution of pressure over the surface of airship model U.721, together with a comparison with the pressure over a spheroid

Jones, R.; Williams, D.H. (1919)

Undertaken to obtain data upon which to base nose-stiffening calculations on new airship. Distribution of pressure was measured over the whole length of the airship model at zero angle of incidence, with wind speed varying ...
Aerodynamic properties of a hemispherical cup with application to the hemispherical cup, windmill and anemometer

F. B. Bradfield (H. M. Stationery Office, 1919)

Windmills of the hemispherical cup anemometer type have been used on aeroplanes for driving auxiliary apparatus, and it therefore appeared desirable to be able to calculate their performance. To do this it was necessary ...
Experiments on balanced control surfaces for rigid airships

Jones, R.; Williams, D.H. (1919)

The experiments were conducted at the request of the Airship Design Department of the Admiralty in order to obtain data to assist in designing balanced control surfaces for airships of the R.38 class. Pitching moments ...
Preliminary experiments on non-rigid airship "S.S.E.3 100,000," with a consideration of the performance data of various types of S.S. Airship

Pannell, J. R. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1920)

The experiments were carried out during a visit to Pulham Air Station when the trials of R.39. were temporarily interrupted. Other reports dealing with full-scale airship experiments are R. & M. 537, R. & M. 674, R. & M, ...
Some notes on the theory of an airscrew working in a wind channel

Wood, R. McK.; Harris, R.G. (1920)

(a) Reasons for enquiry (l) The Momentum Theory of R. E. Fronde leads to equations which require some modification when the airscrew is working in a tunnel of dimensions comparable with the diameter of the screw. (2) Some ...
Account of some experiments on rigid airship r.26

Pannell, J. R.; R. A. Frazer (H. M. Stationery Office, 1920)

The Report gives experimental results obtained on four flights on R.26 during the period November, 1918-January, 1919. The following earlier Reports are quoted in the text :- R. & M. 668 (Airship R.33) ; R. & M. 537 and ...
On the conditions at the boundary of a fluid in turbulent motion

T. E. Stanton; Marshall, Dorothy; C. N. Bryant (H. M. Stationery Office, 1920)

The object of the experiments was to determine the nature of the flow in the neighbourhood of the boundary of a fluid flowing in turbulent motion through a channel with parallel walls. The observations were made on air ...
Experiments on rigid airship R.29

Pannell, J. R.; Bell, A. H. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1920)

Airship R.29. was the last ship of the 27 Class and it was considered desirable that a record of her performance should be obtained before she was placed out of commission. Arrangements were, therefore, made for the ...
Vibrations of rafwires

Harris, R. G. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1921)

This report describes experimental and theoretical investigations of the vibrations of rafwires during "singing." The experimental work was confined to the laboratory. Observations were made on a rafwire in a wind channel ...
The theory of the design of aerofoils with an analysis of the experimental results for the aerofoils R.A.F. 25, 26, 30 to 33

Glauert, H. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1924)

Recently a number of aerofoils have been designed with the object of obtaining (1) a good thick wing, and (2) a racing wing. Experimental results for these aerofoils are contained in reports R.&M. 915, R.&M. 928, and R.&M. ...
A theory of thin aerofoils

Glauert, H. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1924)

The present report develops a theory of thin aerofoils in two dimensional motion and simple integral expressions are obtained for the angle of incidence and moment coefficient at zero lift. A graphical method of integration ...
A generalised type of Jankowski aerofoil

Glauert, H. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1924-01)

The present report gives a short account of a generalised type of Jankowski aerofoil which avoids the difficulty of extreme thinness near the trailing edge associated with the ordinary Jankowski aerofoils. Calculations ...
A general theory of the autogyro

Glauert, H. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1926)

An autogyro obtains remarkably high lift forces from a system of freely rotating blades and it is important to develop a theory which will explain the behaviour of an autogyro and will provide a method of estimating the ...
Theoretical relationships for an aerofoil with hinged flap

Glauert, H. (H. M. Stationery Office, 1927)

The use of an aerofoil with a hinged flap is of very general importance both for control surfaces and for main supporting surfaces, and in particular information is required as to the effect of varying the size of the flap.
