A calculation method has been developed which uses the compressible forms of the boundary-layer momentum integral and entrainment equations in a general, curvilinear surface coordinate system in which the axes are not ...
A comprehensive review of the work at the National Physical Laboratory on shock-wave--boundary-layer interaction has recently been published. The experiments reported below were designed to investigate a further case of ...
A theory, involving a simple new method for turbulent boundary layers, is presented for interactions between normal shocks and turbulent boundary layers on flat surfaces. Experiments in a pipe confirm the theory's general ...
The problem of tunnel interference on a complete lifting wing fitted with ailerons is considered in relation to aerodynamic measurements on a six-component balance. Asymmetric loading introduces corrections to the incidence ...
The classical theory of wind-tunnel interference is extended to cover interference on the effectiveness of a full-span jet flap issuing from the trailing edge of a high aspect ratio unswept wing. It is shown that, for small ...
Some interference effects between fuselage and wing are studied for two classes of configurations. The fuselage is an infinite cylinder of circular cross section with the axis parallel to the main stream. The wings have ...
A method is developed of calculating the performance of a pair of contra-rotating airscrews, closely analogous to that described in R. & M. 2035 a for a single airscrew. The assumptions made are considered to be theoretically ...
V-g records have been obtained during the past year on Hoverfly I helicopters. Some data have also been obtained on a Hoverfly II and a Sikorsky S.51. The V-g records on these aircraft were obtained mainly during test ...
