    Description: Engine tests, together with estimates made at Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory, indicate that a 25-percent increase in take-off power can be obtained with present-day aircraft engines without increasing either the knock limit of the fuel or the external cooling requirements of the engine. This increase in power with present fuels and present external cooling is made possible through the use of an internal coolant inducted through the inlet manifold. Estimates on aircraft indicate that this 25-percent increase in power will permit an approximate usable increase of 8.5 percent in the take-off load of existing military airplanes. This increase in load is equivalent to an increase in the weight of gasoline normally carried of between 30 and 65 percent.

    Description: Report presents the results of investigations conducted on a full-scale air-cooled aircraft-engine cylinder of 202-cubic inch displacement to determine the effects of internal cooling by water induction on the maximum permissible power and output of an internal-combustion engine. For a range of fuel-air and water-fuel ratios, the engine inlet pressure was increased until knock was detected aurally, the power was then decreased 7 percent holding the ratios constant. The data indicated that water was a very effective internal coolant, permitting large increases in engine power as limited by either knock or by cylinder temperatures.

    Description: For a period of ten to fifteen years intensive research and development has been conducted on turbojet propulsion systems for aircraft. During this period much has been learned about the system both from the standpoint of current usage and of future development possibilities. It is the purpose of this report to discuss the current status of the turbojet engine as produced in the United States and to discuss the future possibilities for improvement in the engine and in the fuel. The engine and fuel improvements will be evaluated both from the standpoint of probability of success in obtaining these improvements and from the standpoint of the effects of these improvements on the airplane performance.
