A frequency division multiplex technique for transmitting commands

Reliable random access multiplexer is controlled and operated over two twisted-pair telephone lines at distances of 5.6 to 8.0 km with control signals of less than 10 volts rms. Technique adapts to any process or environmental control system where data source is necessary.

Space Shuttle: Static pressure distribution on Chrysler Corporation Space Division SERV booster configuration

A dual purpose test was conducted in the propulsion wind tunnel (PWT) to evaluate the performance of an aerospike engine, in the presence of a booster, and obtain forebody and base pressure distributions on the booster in which it is installed. The test item was a 2.5 percent scaled replica of the SERV booster employing a 5 percent spike length aerospike engine installed in the base region of the model. Cold flow air was used to simulate engine jet operation. Two booster configurations were investigated, one on which reentry aerospike engine thermal protection doors were installed, and another where the doors were removed. The data presented are representative of the latter configuration for a Mach number range of 0 to 1.25 at angles of attack of 0 and 8 degrees and 0 degrees angle of sideslip.

Evaluation program for secondary spacecraft cells: Acceptance test of McDonnell-Douglas, Astropower division, 40.0 ampere hour silver-zinc cells

The development of an inorganic separator material for use in construction of 40 ampere-hour silver zinc cells is discussed. Acceptance tests were conducted to determine real quality, physical defects and ampere-hour capacity. All acceptance tests were performed at an ambient temperature of 23 to 27 C at existing relative humidity and atmospheric pressure. Of the 63 cells tested, only one failed to meet the equipment specifications.
