Representative operating charts of propellers tested in the NACA 20-foot propeller-research tunnel

Report presents the results of tests of full-scale propellers made in the 20-foot propeller-research tunnel (PRT) at the Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory. The power coefficients of all dual-rotating propellers in the report represent the sum of the power coefficients of the front and rear propellers and are for the test conditions in which blade angles of the front and rear propellers were set to absorb approximately equal power at peak efficiency only.

Use of charts for flow discharge calculations

Various problems in connection with engine design involve flow-discharge calculations which are rendered difficult both on account of the large number of external variables that enter into the computation - i.e., changes in discharge area during the process, change in volume of the cylinder, pressure, etc., and changes in the thermal constants themselves of the flow medium. A fairly accurate solution that does not involve an excessive amount of labor can be obtained only through the extensive use of i-s tables. In the present report, a solution is offered in the form of a different method making use of the I-S table of Lutz and Wolf.
