AERADE Reports Archive
The Aerade Reports Archive incorporates more than ten thousand, historically significant, digitised reports from:
The Aeronautical Research Council (ARC) - the principal agency in Great Britain with a major output of reports on matters aeronautical, which existed from 1909-1979, and published reports until 1980.
The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) - chartered in 1915 and operational from 1917-1958. The National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 created NASA from NACA.

Holloway, W. G.; Kumar, P. E.; Osbourn, W. (College of Aeronautics, )
This note covers the development of two strain-gauge balances for use
on the Whirling Arm Facility of the College. The main requirements for
this balance were:- (a) to withstand 700 lbs of sideload without it
interfering ...

Taylor, A. F. (College of Aeronautics, )
Comparatively little has been published on ‘heavy current’ fluidic
devices yet their advantages suggest that they have a place in aircraft
fluid systems. As a first brief step towards assessing their value to
the aircraft ...

Ashill, P. R.; Osbourn, E. W. (College of Aeronautics, )
The calibration of the flow in the channel of the Whirling Arm is
described and results for pitch yaw and wind speed are presented. These
indicate that the flow is quite acceptable for the type of model tests
envisaged.

Introduction and Summary
Perhaps the most important and, at the same time, most difficult
Problem in the design and development of gas turbine combustion chambers,
is that of achieving a satisfactory and consistent ...

Gaster, M. (College of Aeronautics, )
Flight tests on the Handley Page suction wing showed that turbulence,
generated at the wing root, can propagate along the leading edge and
cause the whole flow to be turbulent. The flow on the attachment line of
a swept ...
