Zalovcik and published by . This book was released on 1950 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method is described for calibrating airspeed installations on airplanes at transonic and supersonic speeds in vertical-plane maneuvers in which use is made of measurements of normal and longitudinal accelerations and attitude angle. The required instrumentation is carried within the airplane. The various sources of error are also discussed.

This book was released on 1958 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A theoretical analysis was made to investigate the performance and acceleration-restriction capabilities of a normal-acceleration command control system in a fighter airplane. Several combinations of pitching velocity and pitching acceleration were investigated as feedback quantities in combination with normal acceleration.

Wiggins and published by . This book was released on 1956 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation was conducted in the Langley high-speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel to determine the horizontal- and vertical-tail contributions to the static lateral stability of a complete-model swept-wing configuration at high subsonic speeds. The results indicate that, in a general, Mach number effects within the range studied and wing effects on the tail contribution were small and the overall trends of the data of the present investigation agreed with those which have been established at low speeds.

Download or read book Instrumentation Systems written by Enoch J. Durbin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flight Testing, Volume IV: Instrumentation Systems serves as a guide to flight test instrumentation systems for establishing flight test programs. This book provides aircraft flight testers with the information required to appreciate the capabilities and limitations of the instrumentation techniques, indicating some of the many alternatives possible in flight instrumentation. It considers the systems concept in planning flight test instrumentation and functional organization of the component parts of an instrumentation system, followed by a discussion of the components of a flight data acquisition and reduction system that are organized into functional categories. Within these categories, a comparison is made between the various data collection systems and data reducing systems. The similarities, advantages, and limitations of each type of system component and significance of the fundamental properties of each device are also noted in this volume. This compilation is written primarily for persons not well-trained in electronics with special emphasis toward promoting the systems point of view in considering the problems of measurement in flight.

Download or read book Comparison of Airspeed Calibrations Evaluated by the Accelerometer and Radar Methods written by Lindsay J. Lina and published by . This book was released on 1952 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Airspeed calibration of the pitot-static installation on a jet fighter airplane was made to compare the accelerometer method of determining the static-pressure error with the radar method. The tests included shallow dives up to a Mach number of about 0.80 with pull-ups of about 4, 3, and 2g normal acceleration. The results of the test indicated that, for vertical plane maneuvers, the accelerometer method may be used as an alternate to the radar method.

Download or read book A Nonlinear Theory for Predicting the Effects of Unsteady Laminar Turbulent Or Transitional Boundary Layers on the Attenuation of Shock Waves in a Shock Tube with Experimental Comparison written by Robert L. Trimpi and published by . This book was released on 1958 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The linearized attenuation theory of NACA Technical Note 3375 is modified in the following manner: (a) an unsteady compressible local skin-friction coefficient is employed rather than the equivalent steady-flow incompressible coefficient; (b) a nonlinear approach is used to permit application of the theory to large attenuations; and (c) transition effects are considered. Curves are presented for predicting attenuation for shock pressure ratios up to 20 and a range of shock-tube Reynolds numbers. Comparison of theory and experimental data for shock wave strengths between 1.5 and 10 over a wide range of Reynolds numbers shows good agreement with the nonlinear theory evaluated for a transition Reynolds nuniber of 2.5 million.
