Fruitful Debates
MORE than we ever remember this has been a season of Conferences. Advantage has been taken this year as never before of the incidence of the S.B.A.C. Display to bring together…
Still‐Air Range in the Stratosphere: A Method of Rapid and Accurate Calculation for Jet‐propelled Aeroplanes Operating above the Tropopause
A.J.K. CarlineA method is given for calculating rapidly and accurately, by the use of charts (Figs. 1–3), the still‐air range performance of jet‐propelled aircraft operating completely above…
The Rapid Discharge of Gases from Vessels: An Explanation of Discrepancies Between Calculation and Experiment Explained by the Application of Wave Theory
J. Kestin, J.S. GlassEXPERIMENTS on the rapid discharge of gases from cylinders show marked deviations from the accepted quasi‐steady theory. Agreement between experiment and calculation is obtained…
Critical Flow Through Convergent‐Divergent Nozzles: Further Correspondence on a Highly Controversial Subject of Great Theoretical Importance
DEAR SIR, It is doubtful whether great practical importance can be attached to the precise location of the sonic section in a de Laval nozzle with friction present, under the…
Flow of a Compressible Gas with Friction: A Study of the Effects of Friction in Compressible Flow and the Development of a Correction Factor
V.D. NaylorIT is usual in theory to treat questions on gas‐flow, as if the flow takes place isentropically, i.e. is subject to the law. This is equivalent to assuming the gas is frictionless…
A General Discussion on Heat Transfer
THE problem of the dissipation and transfer of heat is one that is becoming of increasing importance in aircraft with the introduction of gas‐turbines and jet propulsion as well…
Research Reports and Memoranda
Under this heading arc published regularly abstracts of all Reports and Memoranda of the Aeronautical Research Council, Reports and Technical Memoranda of the United States…
Month in the Patent Office
In a folding wing aircraft with a tricycle undercarriage in which the folding of the wings causes the centre of gravity of the aircraft to move behind the rear axle of the…
U.S. Patent Specifications
In a gas turbine power plant including a substantially cylindrical casing structure having an annular air flow passage, and a compressor rotor axially mounted therein for drawing…
