Radiation performance of AlGaAs and InGaAs concentrator cells and expected performance of cascade structures

Aluminum gallium arsenide, GaAs, silicon and InGaAs cells have been irradiated with 1-MeV electrons and 37-MeV protons. These cells are candidates for individual cells in a cascade structure. Data are presented for both electron and proton irradiation studies for one sun and a concentration level of 100X AM0. Results of calculations on the radiation resistance of cascade cell structures based on the individual cell data are also presented. Both series-connected and separately connected structures are investigated.

Altitude-test-chamber Investigation of Performance of a 28-inch Ram-jet Engine I : Combustion and Operational Performance of Four Combustion-chamber Configurations

An altitude-test-chamber investigation of a 28-inch-diameter ram-jet engine at a simulated flight Mach number of approximately 2.0 for altitudes of 40,000 to 50,000 feet was conducted at the NACA Lewis laboratory. Three different flame holders, varying in the number and size of the annular gutters, in conjunction with several fuel-injection systems were investigated. The combustion efficiency for the flame-holder fuel-injection system that provided the best over-all operational fuel-air-ratio range (0.03 to 0.075) was over 0.9 at a fuel-air ratio of about 0.065 for the altitude range investigated.
