    Measurements of Atmospheric Turbulence on Seattle-Alaska Airways (1947)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-11
    Description: For about the past year, American Airlines has been engaged in obtaining data on various uses of airborne radar under routine operating conditions. This work is under contract to the Navy Department, Bureau of Ships, and includes the investigation of radar as a navigational aid and terrain collision warning device and its use in icing and turbulence detection. In view of the work of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics on atmospheric turbulence, the NACA was requested to participate in the tests to the extent of obtaining and evaluating the turbulence data for use in the turbulence-detection phase of the work. Gust measurements and airborne radar observations were consequently obtained in February and March 1947 during routine flights of an American Airlines airplane on the Seattle-Alaska airways. Unfortunately, the weather conditions encountered during the flights gave no well-defined radar echoes and no comparison between radar indications end turbulence could be made. The gust data for the route, however, are of interest from an operational standpoint, and are presented herein for the information of the Navy Department in accordance with previous arrangements.

    Some Tests and Calculations Pertaining to the Dive Path and to Wing and Tail Loads in the Accident to Eastern Airlines C54B Airplane, NC-88814, Near Bainbridge, Maryland, May 30, 1947 (1947)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-11
    Description: Several dive paths were calculated for a C54 airplane starting from level flight at an altitude of 4000 feet and from an initial indicated airspeed of 200 miles per hour. The results show that, within the limits of the possible paths permitted by the evidence of the crash at Bainbridge, the speed of impact would be about 370 miles per hour and the time to crash would be between 12 1/2 and 15 1/2 seconds. Tail load calculations indicate that, with moderate negative acceleration of the airplane, the tail would fail near the end of the dive in a manner consistent in several important respects with the evidence. A number of tests were made of the elevator tab control system to determine whether the tab would move by an amount sufficient to have caused the observed dive if the stored energy in the tab control cable were suddenly released. The results of these tests indicated that the probable tab movement is such as to be capable of causing a dive similar to the one observed at Bainbridge.

    A Preliminary Study of Ram-Actuated Cooling Systems for Supersonic Aircraft (1947)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-15
    Description: An analysis has been made of the characteristics of several cooling cycles suitable for cockpit cooling of supersonic aircraft. All the cycles considered utilize the difference between dynamic and ambient static pressure to actuate the cooling system and require no additional power source. The results of the study indicate that as flight speeds become greater, increasingly complex systems are required to reduce the altitudes above approximately 35,000 feet, a system composed of an externally loaded expansion turbine in conjunction with a supersonic diffuser would maintain tolerable ventilating air temperature, at least up to a flight Mach number of 2. The most complex system considered,composed of compressor, intercooler, and expansion turbine with the intercooler cooling air decreased in temperature by expansion through an auxiliary turbine is capable of maintaining a ventilation air temperature less than ambient temperature up to a flight Mach number of 3.7.
