Inlet gas flow rate analyses in determination of liquid surface profile in cryogenic tank during gas injection
Effects of projectile size, material, and impact velocity on metal wall fracture of liquid filled tank
Liquid surface profile in cryogenic tank during gas injection
Saturn S-IV and S-IVB liquid hydrogen tank internal insulation, using polyurethane foam reinforced with fiberglass threads
Liquid instability of vibrating partially filled elastic tank, emphasizing resonant breathing mode and frequency response
Liquid hydrogen tank insulation constructed of honeycomb core containing polyurethane foam for S-ii booster
Rigidly controlled shot peening retards the incompatibility between titanium alloys and nitrogen tetroxide in rocket-propellant storage tanks. This sets up a residual compressive stress in the surface of a material which reduces tensile stresses in the material fibers, alleviating stress corrosion.
Mechanized X ray equipment provides nondestructive inspection of structural weldments at various positions on very large tanks. It mechanizes the placement of the film, automates the identification process, adheres to safety requirements, and eliminates all the usual time-consuming manual operations in industrial radiography.
Computer program for the analysis of a single propellant tank pressurization system includes many pertinent physical phenomena previously ignored in other mathematical models. This program can be used for analysis, simulation, and design of propellant pressurization systems.
Transonic aerodynamic characteristics of supersonic fighter-bomber aircraft model with external fuel tanks and other modifications
Behavior of propellant liquid-vapor interface outflow from cylindrical space vehicle tanks in weightlessness
Hazards monitoring sensors selection and locations for Apollo fuel transfer and tanking system - hypergolic and cryogenic fuel and oxidizer systems
Diffusion bonding of titanium sandwich structure for Saturn tank wall application
Carbon dioxide purge and thermal protection system for liquid hydrogen tanks of hypersonic aircraft, comparing with helium purge system
Similarity parameters of gravity and pressure driven liquid discharge from propellant tanks obtained by dimensional analysis
Equipment measures the roundness and concentricity of large, massive tanks. The equipment includes a 34-foot rotary table, a variable reluctance displacement transducer, an electronics console, a digital computer, and a 5-foot plotter used for final data display.
Stress analysis of semitoroidal and ogival tanks
Design and fabrication of aluminum alloy propellant tank shells for Apollo oxidizer reaction control system
