Recovery and Time-response Characteristics of Six Thermocouple Probes in Subsonic and Supersonic Flow

Experimental data obtained from three shielded and three unshielded thermocouple probes are presented. Data taken in air at room temperature over the ranges 0.2 to 2.2 Mach number and 0.2 to 2.2 atmospheres total pressure show reproducible systematic variations of recovery with Mach number, ambient pressure, flow angle, and probe design. Time-constant data determined at Mach 0.2 and room temperature and pressure indicate that unshielded probes are several times faster in response to temperature changes than shielded probes.

An analytical study of the comparative performance of six air-induction systems for turbojet-powered airplanes designed to operate at Mach numbers up to 2.0

A study is presented of inlet designs and aerodynamic characteristics of air-induction systems intended for operation with a turbojet engine operating with a constant-volume air-flow process. Two-dimensional inlet designs similar to those discussed in NACA RM A52C14, plus a fixed-geometry inlet with a convergent-divergent diffuser, and an additional variable-geometry inlet are considered for Mach numbers from 0.85 to 2.0 from sea level to the stratosphere. For best performance throughout this range of Mach numbers and altitudes, it was shown that the geometry of the inlet must be such as to insure a high pressure recovery, as well as to provide for a variable entrance area. The inlets are compared on the basis of a drag evaluation neglecting viscosity.
