    Transonic-Wind-Tunnel Tests of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 0.15-Scale Model of the North American Aviation 255-Inch Fin-Stabilized External Store, Coord No. AF-AM-4 (1958)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-11
    Description: An investigation has been made in the Langley 8-foot transonic tunnels on the aerodynamic characteristics of a 0.15-scale model of the North American Aviation 255-inch fin-stabilized external store over a maximum Mach number range of 0.60 to 1.2 and on the effects of mounting lugs, of fin orientation, of fin aspect ratio, and of fixed-transition. The Reynolds number (based on a body length of 37.50 inches) varied from 9.8 x 10(exp 6) to 13.1 x 10(exp 6). The results indicate that the static margin of the finned store at low lift coefficients was only 9 percent of body length at subsonic Mach numbers and was reduced to zero at a Mach number of 1.0, Increasing the fin aspect ratio from 1.82 to 2.41 increased the subsonic static margin to 18 percent and provided a minimum margin of 9 percent near a Mach number of l.O. Store mounting lugs or fin orientation had only small effects on the aerodynamic characteristics of the basic store.

    Flight Investigation to Determine the Effect of Jet Exhaust on Drag, Trim Characteristics, and Afterbody Pressures of a 0.125-Scale Rocket Model of the Mcdonnell F-101A Airplane (1956)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: A flight investigation was conducted to determine the effect of jet exhaust on the drag, trim characteristics, and afterbody pressures on a 0.125-scale rocket model of the McDonnell F-101A airplance. Power-off data were obtained over a Mach number range of 1.04 to 1.9 and power-on data were obtained at a Mach number of about 1.5. The data indicated that with power-on the change in external drag coefficient was within the data accuracy and there was a decrease in trim angle of attack of 1.27 degrees with a corresponding decrease of 0.07 in lift coefficient. Correspondingly, pressure coefficients on the side and bottom of the fuselage indicated a positive increment near the jet exit. As the distance downstream of the jet exit increased, the increment on the bottom of the fuselage increased, whereas the increments on the side decreased to a negative peak.

    Experimental Investigation of Expanded Duct Sections and Screens for Reducing FLow Distortions at Subsonic Flows (1959)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-17
    Description: An investigation of expanded duct sections and the effect of their design parameters on flow distortion over a duct Mach number range of 0.19 to 0.67 was conducted in the small tunnel facility of the Lewis Research Center. The parameters investigated were: (1) entrance angle of expanded section, (2) length of expanded section, (3) area ratio of expanded section, (4) location of expanded section relative to the engine face, and (5) the use of screens of varying solidities and mesh. Expansion half-angles of deg, 15 deg, and 30 deg reduced the total-pressure distortions induced in the duct. The larger expansion angles reduced circumferential distortion more effectively than radial distortion. However, the half-angle of 15 deg appeared to be optimum for reducing both radial and circumferential distortions while still maintaining a high total-pressure recovery. Increasing the expanded-section area ratio and increasing the expanded-section lengths with-the 150 expansion half-angle led to less total-pressure distortion with no appreciable loss in pressure recovery. Screens incorporated in the expanded section indicated that 22.2-percent- solidity screens decreased distortion still further.while 37.3-percent- solidity screens generally increased distortion above that of a constant- area duct incorporating the same solidity screen.

    Heat-Transfer and Pressure Measurements on a Flat-Face Cylinder at a Mach Number Range of 2.49 to 4.44 (1959)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-16
    Description: Heat-transfer coefficients and pressure distributions were obtained on a 4-inch-diameter flat-face cylinder in the Langley Unitary Plan wind tunnel. The measured stagnation heat-transfer coefficient agrees well with 55 percent of the theoretical value predicted by the modified Sibulkin method for a hemisphere. Pressure measurements indicated the dimensionless velocity gradient parameter r du\ a(sub t) dx, where x=0 at the stagnation point was approximately 0.3 and invariant throughout the Mach number range from 2.49 to 4.44 and the Reynolds number range from 0.77 x 10(exp 6) to 1.46 x 10(exp 6). The heat-transfer coefficients on the cylindrical afterbody could be predicted with reasonable accuracy by flat-plate theory at an angle of attack of 0 deg. At angles of attack the cylindrical afterbody stagnation-line heat transfer could be computed from swept-cylinder theory for large distances back of the nose when the Reynolds number is based on the distance from the flow reattachment points.

    Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 45 Degree Swept-wing Fighter-Airplane Model and Aerodynamic Loads on Adjacent Stores and Missiles at Mach Numbers of 1.57, 1.87, 2.16, and 2.53 (1958)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-14
    Description: An investigation was performed in the Langley Unitary Plan wind tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a model of a 450 swept-wing fighter airplane, and to determine the loads on attached stores and detached missiles in the presence of the model. Also included was a determination of aileron-spoiler effectiveness, aileron hinge moments, and the effects of wing modifications on model aerodynamic characteristics. Tests were performed at Mach numbers of 1.57, 1.87, 2.16, and 2.53. The Reynolds numbers for the tests, based on the mean aerodynamic chord of the wing, varied from about 0.9 x 10(exp 6) to 5 x 10(exp 6). The results are presented with minimum analysis.

    Characteristics of Five Ejector Configurations at Free-Stream Mach Numbers from 0 to 2.0 (1959)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-15
    Description: Thrust, air-handling, and base-pressure characteristics of five ejector configurations were investigated in the Lewis 8-by 6-foot wind tunnel at free-stream Mach numbers from 0 to 2.0 over ranges of primary-jet pressure ratio up to 24 and corrected secondary weight-flow ratio up to 13 percent. The ejector-shroud geometries varied from convergent to divergent. Base pressure ratio and ejector performance were interrelated by means of an exit-momentum parameter. Correlations, to at least a first approximation, with base pressure ratio, of both internal-ejector-flow separation and external-flow separation over the model boattail were shown. Furthermore, it was shown that magnitudes and exact trends in base pressure ratio depended largely, and in a complicated fashion, on ejector geometry and amount of secondary flow. External-stream effects on ejector jet thrust were determined for a typical schedule of jet-engine pressure ratios. With the exception of the ejector having the largest (1.81) shroud-exit-to primary-diameter ratio, there were no stream effects at Mach numbers from 1.5 to 2.0 and variations from quiescent-air thrust data were less than 2.5 percent at the subsonic speed investigated.

    The Interaction of an Oblique Shock Wave with a Laminar Boundary Layer (1959)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-15
    Description: The results of some experimental and theoretical studies of the interaction of oblique shock waves with laminar boundary layers are presented. Detailed measurements of pressure distribution, shear distribution, and velocity profiles were made during the interaction of oblique shock waves with laminar boundary layers on a flat plate. From these measurements a model was derived to predict the pressure levels characteristic of separation and the length of the separated region.

    Analysis of Turbulent Flow and Heat Transfer on a Flat Plate at High Mach Numbers with Variable Fluid Properties (1959)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-15
    Description: A previous analysis of turbulent heat transfer and flow with variable fluid properties in smooth passages is extended to flow over a flat plate at high Mach numbers, and the results are compared with experimental data. Velocity and temperature distributions are calculated for a boundary layer with appreciative effects of frictional heating and external heat transfer. Viscosity and thermal conductivity are assumed to vary as a power or the temperature, while Prandtl number and specific heat are taken as constant. Skin-friction and heat-transfer coefficients are calculated and compared with the incompressible values. The rate of boundary-layer growth is obtained for various Mach numbers.

    Details of Exact Low Prandtl Number Boundary-Layer Solutions for Forced and For Free Convection (1959)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-15
    Description: A detailed report is given of exact (numerical) solutions of the laminar-boundary-layer equations for the Prandtl number range appropriate to liquid metals (0.003 to 0.03). Consideration is given to the following situations: (1) forced convection over a flat plate for the conditions of uniform wall temperature and uniform wall heat flux, and (2) free convection over an isothermal vertical plate. Tabulations of the new solutions are given in detail. Results are presented for the heat-transfer and shear-stress characteristics; temperature and velocity distributions are also shown. The heat-transfer results are correlated in terms of dimensionless parameters that vary only slightly over the entire liquid-metal range. Previous analytical and experimental work on low Prandtl number boundary layers is surveyed and compared with the new exact solutions.

    Effects of Inlet Modification and Rocket-Rack Extension on the Longitudinal Trim and Low-Lift Drag of the Douglas F5D-1 Airplane as Obtained with a 0.125-Scale Rocket-Boosted Model between Mach Numbers of 0.81 and 1.64, TED No. NACA AD 399 (1957)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-11
    Description: A flight investigation was conducted to determine the effects of an inlet modification and rocket-rack extension on the longitudinal trim and low-lift drag of the Douglas F5D-1 airplane. The investigation was conducted with a 0.125-scale rocket-boosted model which was flight tested at the Langley Pilotless Aircraft Research Station at Wallops Island, Va. Results indicate that the combined effects of the modified inlet and fully extended rocket racks on the trim lift coefficient and trim angle of attack were small between Mach numbers of 0.94 and 1.57. Between Mach numbers of 1.10 and 1.57 there was an average increase in drag coefficient of about o,005 for the model with modified inlet and extended rocket racks. The change in drag coefficient due to the inlet modification alone is small between Mach numbers of 1.59 and 1.64
