A detailed description is given of the development of a computer program for analysing the flow through axial, radial and mixed-flow turbomachines. The theory is based on the through-flow analysis given by Wu 1,2 and the ...
An integral equation is derived for the velocity on the surface of a given body of revolution or a given symmetrical profile in longitudinal flow, using the generation of a body by a vortex layer on its surface. The ...
The discrete element displacement method is applied to the prediction of the natural frequencies of lateral vibration of rectangular plates which may be subjected to arbitrary systems of in-plane loading. Numerical results ...
A calculation method is described for unsteady, subsonic flow through an infinite, two-dimensional cascade of flat plate blades at zero mean incidence. The unsteady blade lift and moment, generated acoustic waves and shed ...
The report describes experiments devised to investigate some of the previously unexplained peculiarities of normal types of pitot-static tube. Revised basic calibration factors for various instruments are recorded. In the ...
Some of the characteristics of jet-lift V/STOL aircraft are discussed in terms of their effect on the ability of these aircraft to operate from small, semi-prepared sites, without the usual airfield facilities, in both ...
The paper presents a review of recent experimental and theoretical research on two-dimensional base flows. The main object is to illustrate the extent to which the basic properties of the flow are understood in each of the ...
The function of the manometer is to enable small pressure differences to be measured at a distance. The instrument will measure either the difference of two pressures or a single pressure relative to atmosphere. The accurate ...
Undertaken to obtain data upon which to base nose-stiffening calculations on new airship. Distribution of pressure was measured over the whole length of the airship model at zero angle of incidence, with wind speed varying ...
