    Description: The transition of laminar flows into turbulent flows in a boundary layer is discussed. The individual aspects of the transition process, observed under controllable model conditions are examined. The aspect of this problem, namely the development or excitation of the natural oscillations in the boundary layer, the so-called Tollmin-Schlichting waves is covered. Three types of excitation of these waves are considered: (1) distributed generation throughout the boundary layer; (2) generation in the vicinity of the forward edge of a model, having either a sharp edge or an edge with a large radius or curvature, and (3) generation in a developed boundary layer by means of a focused effect.

    Description: A method for visualizing the three-dimensional flow around models of various shapes in a wind tunnel at a Mach number of 5 is described. A laser provides a planar light flux such that any plane through the model can be selectively illuminated. The shape of shock waves and separation regions is then determined by the intensity of light scattered by soot particles in the flow.

    Description: A low-turbulence subsonic wind tunnel was used to study the influence of acoustic disturbances on the development of small sinusoidal oscillations (Tollmien-Schlichting waves) which constitute the initial phase of turbulent transition. It is found that acoustic waves propagating opposite to the flow generate vibrations of the model (plate) in the flow. Neither the plate vibrations nor the acoustic field itself have any appreciable influence on the stability of the laminar boundary layer. The influence of an acoustic field on laminar boundary layer disturbances is limited to the generation of Tollmien-Schlichting waves at the leading-edge of the plate.

    Description: The equations determining the linear growth rate omega characterizing a convectively unstable fluid with Rayleigh number R(u) bounded below by an impenetrable free boundary and above by a convectively stable fluid with Rayleigh number R(s), are solved numerically. Using the analytical Rayleigh-Benard growth rate omega (RB) as a convenient functional form, it is possible to fit the numerical values for omega if the vertical wave number k(z) = n(pi) and the Rayleigh number R(RB) are taken to be functions of R(s), R(u), and the horizontal wave number k-perpendicular rather than n = integer as in the Rayleigh-Benard case. In addition, contrary to Rayleigh-Benard convection, in which the critical Rayleigh number is fixed, it is found that R super (cr) sub u is variable in the presence of a stable layer, (i.e., it depends on R(s)).

    Description: Results are presented from three experiments in which direct, local measurements of the skin friction reduction due to flat-plate turbulence manipulators for overall viscous drag reduction were obtained. The results suggest that only a very small overall net drag reduction will be possible for such devices at moderate momentum thickness-derived Reynolds number values, since maximum skin friction drag is neither large nor sustained.

    Description: A reciprocating gadolinium core in a regeneration fluid column in the warm bore of a superconducting solenoidal magnet is considered for magnetic refrigeration in 3.517 MW (1000 ton) applications. A procedure is presented to minimize the amount of superconducting cable needed in the magnet design. Estimated system capital costs for an ideal magnetic refrigerator of this type become comparable to conventional chillers as the frequency of reciprocation approaches 10 Hertz. A 1-D finite difference analysis of a regenerator cycling at 0.027 Hertz is presented which exhibits some of the features seen in the experiments of G. V. Brown.

    Description: The unsteady, two-dimensional flowfield resulting from the interaction of a moving planar shock wave with a compression corner is determined using a second-order, discontinuity-fitting, finite-difference approach. The time-dependent Euler equations are transformed to normalize the distance between the body and peripheral shock and to include the existing self-similar property of the flow. The resulting set of partial differential equations in conservation-law form is then solved in a time-dependent fashion using MacCormack's scheme. The vortical singularity, which lies on the body surface, and the single reflected shock are both treated as discontinuities in the numerical procedure. The results of the numerical simulation compare quite favorably with existing experimental interferograms and yield better flowfield resolution than previous first-order, shock-capturing, numerical solutions.

    Description: The conceptual design selected for detailed system analysis and optimization is the reciprocating gadolinium core in a regenerative fluid column within the bore of a superconducting magnet. The thermodynamic properties of gadolinium are given. A computerized literature search for relevant papers was conducted and is being analyzed. Contact was made with suppliers of superconducting magnets and accessories, magnetic materials, and various types of hardware. A description of the model for the thermal analysis of the core and regenerator fluids is included.

    Description: The distribution of squamae on the fish body and that of the deposits in the bed of the river can be described by the same equation. The curves reflecting the relative elongation and stability of the body shape of the fish continue the curves showing the elongation of bank spit and stability of the bed of the river.

    Description: Data in the literature on heat transfer in the case of nucleate boiling of various liquids in the wicks of heat pipes are reviewed. It is shown that none of the known analytical relationships can be used to generalize, with sufficient accuracy, the experimental data found in the literature. It is further shown that the exponent of the specific heat flux in the heat transfer law changes as a function of the liquid and wick properties. A relationship is obtained which generalizes experimental data for heat transfer agents of moderate temperatures (water, acetone, ethanol, and R-11 and R-113 coolants) and ammonia.
