    Description: The traditional procedure for estimating the performance of slotted walls for airfoil wind tunnels is reviewed, and a modification which improves the accuracy of this procedure is described. Unlike the traditional procedure, the modified procedure indicates that the design of airfoil wind-tunnel walls which induce minimal blockage and streamline-curvature effects is feasible. The design and testing of such a slotted wall is described. It is shown experimentally that the presence of a model can affect the plenum pressure and thus make the use of the plenum pressure as a calibration reference questionable. Finally, an ONERA experiment which shows the effect of the sidewall boundary layer on the measured model normal force is discussed.

    Description: Results from a wind tunnel investigation in which velocity vector measurements were obtained in the near wake of an externally blown flap powered lift configuration were analyzed. These measurements were used to develop spanwise distributions for the momentum strength and location of the engine exhaust stream tube with the results used as input parameters to one jet flap analytical method. It is shown that a comparison of the momentum coefficients obtained from forward speed wake surveys with the predicted values from static force data results in a good correlation, which verifies the use of the flap thrust recovery factor as a means of predicting the momentum strength at the flap trailing edge. Also, when wake survey distributions of momentum strength and direction are used as input parameters to one analytical jet flap method, the results show reasonable agreement between the experimental data and analytical results.

    Description: In response to design requirements of the National Transonic Facility, aerodynamic tests were conducted to determine the pressure-drop, flow-uniformity, and turbulence characteristics of various heat-exchanger configurations as a function of Reynolds number. Data were obtained in air with an indraft flow apparatus operated at ambient temperature and pressure. The unit Reynolds number of the tests varied from about 0.06 x 10 to 6th power to about 1.3 x 10 to 6th power per meter. The test models were designed to represent segments of full-scale tube bundles and included bundles of round tubes with plate fins in both staggered and inline tube arrays, round tubes with spiral fins, elliptical tubes with plate fins, and an inline grouping of tubes with segmented fins.

    Description: An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the effect of bleed on a shock wave-boundary layer interaction in an axisymmetric mixed-compression supersonic inlet. The inlet was designed for a free-stream Mach number of 2.50 with 60-percent supersonic internal area contraction. The experiment was conducted in the NASA Lewis Research Center 10-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel. The effects of bleed amount and bleed geometry on the boundary layer after a shock wave-boundary layer interaction were studied. The effect of bleed on the transformed form factor is such that the full realizable reduction is obtained by bleeding of a mass flow equal to about one-half of the incident boundary layer mass flow. More bleeding does not yield further reduction. Bleeding upstream or downstream of the shock-induced pressure rise is preferable to bleeding across the shock-induced pressure rise.

    Description: The low-speed aerodynamic characteristics are investigated of a general research model - a swept-wing, jet-powered STOL transport with externally blown flaps. The model was tested with four-engine simulators mounted on pylons under the 9.3-percent-thick supercritical airfoil wing. Two sets of air ejectors were used to provide data with large and small engines. Tests were conducted in the Langley V/STOL tunnel over an angle-of-attack range of -4 deg to 22 deg and a thrust-coefficient range from 0 to approximately 4. The effects are described of power, wing leading-edge slat configuration, T-tail and low horizontal-tail positions, and double-slotted flap deflection. Additional untrimmed and trimmed engine-out data and tail-body data are included.

    Description: An investigation was made in the 5.18 m (17 ft) test section of the Langley 300 MPH 7 by 10 foot tunnel on a rectangular, aspect ratio 6 wing which had a slotted supercritical airfoil section and externally blown flaps. The 13 percent thick wing was fitted with two high lift flap systems: single slotted and double slotted. The designations single slotted and double slotted do not include the slot which exists near the trailing edge of the basic slotted supercritical airfoil. Tests were made over an angle of attack range of -6 deg to 20 deg and a thrust-coefficient range up to 1.94 for a free-stream dynamic pressure of 526.7 Pa (11.0 lb/sq ft). The results of the investigation are presented as curves and tabulations of the chordwise pressure distributions at the midsemispan station for the wing and each flap element.

    Description: A wind tunnel investigation was conducted to determine the amplitude and spatial distribution of steady-state and dynamic distortion produced in an inlet with 45 percent of the overall supersonic area contraction occurring internally. It was found that the inlet support strut location and/or the overboard bypass flow rate has a significant effect on the spatial distribution of distortion. Because of this effect the majority of the stall points exhibited four-per-revolution patterns of distortion. Data from this test were used to formulate a simple index that combines steady-state and dynamic distortions. Distortion results obtained with this index correlated well with exhaust nozzle area. It is shown that the exhaust nozzle area of a TF30-P-3, as modified for use in this test, can be controlled in a scheme to avoid engine stall. A considerable increase in engine distortion tolerance can be achieved by opening the 7th-stage bleed. The engine exhibited higher tolerance to distortion for multiple patterns of distortion per-revolution than for a one-per-revolution pattern of distortion.

    Description: This paper describes a generalized dynamic model which has been developed for use in compression component aerodynamic stability studies. The model is a one-dimensional, pitch-line, blade row, lumped volume system. Arbitrary placement of blade free volumes upstream, within, and downstream of the compression component as well as the removal of bleed flow from the exit of any rotor or stator are model options. The model has been applied to a two-stage fan and an eight-stage compressor. The clean inlet pressure ratio/flow maps and the surge line have been reproduced, thereby validating the capability of the dynamic model to reproduce the steady-flow characteristics of the compression component. A method for determining the onset of an aerodynamic instability which is associated with surge is described. Sinusoidally time-varying inlet and exit boundary conditions have been applied to the eight stage compressor as examples of the manner in which this model may be used for stability studies.

    Description: The effect of nozzle spacing on ground interference forces was investigated for a two jet V/STOL aircraft design. The need for information on the effect of jet spacing arises because of the tradeoff between mechanical complexity, which calls for close spacing, and roll control moments, which call for wider spacing. The ground interference forces on a two jet V/STOL aircraft model were measured for a range of nozzle spacings. Interference forces showed a complicated behavior with nozzle spacing, fuselage geometry, and height above ground. For some conditions a slight change in nozzle spacing resulted in a fourfold change in the interference force from 3% to 12% of the basic jet thrust. An understanding of the observed aircraft force behavior was developed using detailed measurements of the upwash flow properties, along with force and pressure measurements on a series of two dimensional fuselage representations.

    Description: Compressor face dynamic total pressures from four F-111 flights were analyzed. Statistics of the nonstationary data were investigated by analyzing the data in a quasi-stationary manner. Changes in the character of the dynamic signal are investigated as functions of flight conditions, time in flight, and location at the compressor face. The results, which are presented in the form of rms values, histograms, and power spectrum plots, show that the shape of the power spectra remains relatively flat while the histograms have an approximate normal distribution.
