Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The external wave drag of bodies of revolution moving at supersonic speeds can be expressed either in terms of the geometry of the body, or in terms of the body-simulating axial source distribution. For purposes of deriving optimum bodies under various given condtions, it is found that the second of the methods mentioned is the more tractable. By use of a quasi-cylindrical theory, that is, the boundary conditions are applied on the surface of a cylinder rather than on the body itself, the variational problems of the optimum bodies having prescribed volume or caliber are solved. The streamwise variations of cross-section area and drags of the bodies are exhibited, and some numerical results are given. The solutions are found to depend upon a single parameter involving Mach number and radius-lenght ration of the given cylinder. Variation of this parameter from zero to infinity gives the spectrum of optimum bodies with the given condition from the slender-body result of the two-dimensional. The numerical results show that for increasing values of the parameter, the optimum shapes quickly approach the two-dimensional.

Download or read book General Theory of Wave drag Reduction for Combinations Employing Quasi cylindrical Bodies with an Application to Swept wing and Body Combinations written by Jack N. Nielsen and published by . This book was released on 1955 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wing-body interference theory of NACA TN 2677 applied to symmetrical wings in combination with quasi-cylindrical bodies permits the direct calculation of pressure-distribution changes produced by body shape changes. This theory is used to determine the relative magnitued of the wave-drag reduction produced by changes in cylinder cross-sectional area and that produced changes in cross-sectional shape (without change in area). The body distortion is expressed as a Fourier series, and an integral equation is derived for the body shape for minimum drag for each Fourier component. Thus the wave-drag reductions for the various Fourier harmonics are independent and additive.

Book excerpt: An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the effects of various geometric and flow factors on the discharge coefficients for circular holes having flow parallel to the plane of the hole. The geometric and flow factors considered were hole diameter, wall thickness at the hole, parallel-fllow duct height, boundary-layer thickness, parallel-flow velocity, static-pressure level, and pressure ratio across the test hole.
