Effect of swirl on turbulent jets in ducted streams
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Gas Turbine Laboratory, [1968], 1968)
An experimental and theoretical program of research has been carried out to determine the effect of swirl on the mixing of a turbulent jet in a ducted stream. The term swirl is used to describe a flow pattern within the ...
Experiments on turbulent boundary layers along a circular cylinder with and without separation
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1967], 1967)
Summary: Experiments were conducted in a turbulent boundary-layer near separation along a circular cylinder with the flow in the axial direction. The pressure gradient along the axis of the cylinder could be varied such ...
Unconventional blade design for compressors
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1969], 1969)
One of the factors causing the low efficiency of axial flow compressors operating at decreased flow rates is the flow separation at blade extremities. To postpone this tendency to separate to lower flow rates, compressor ...
A light scattering investigation of droplet growth in nozzle condensation
(Cambridge, Mass., Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1969, 1969)
An experimental and theoretical study has been made of the condensation of water vapor (with air carrier) in a supersonic nozzle in order to investigate the possible existence of condensate droplets which are substantially ...
Boundary layer separation ; preliminary report
(Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1962], 1962)
The phenomenon of incompressible boundary layer separation and the existing methods of predicting it are discussed. The failure of these theories in many cases clearly indicates a need for further investigation. A program ...
Airline competition analysis
([Cambridge, Mass.] : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1968], 1968)
Introduction: The purpose of this study is to investigate how airlines share the passengers, attracted to air transportation. The percentage of these passengers, that one airline will carry in any given market, where it ...
Thin airfoils in rotational flow
(Cambridge, Mass : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1965], 1965)
The problem of rotational or shear flow about thin airfoils has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. The theoretical approach is based on the concept of a lifting line in a bounded shear flow whose primary ...
Computerized schedule construction for an airbus transportation system
([Cambridge, Mass.] : Massachusetts Institute of Technology Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1966], 1966)
As part of a continuing study of the application of V/STOL aircraft to the transportation problems of the Northeast Corridor, the U.S. Department of Commerce has requested that detailed data be developed on schedules, ...
A simulation study of dynamic scheduling of a VTOL airport feeder system
([Cambridge, Mass.] : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1969], 1969)
Introduction: In considering ultra short haul, high density transportation systems, it may become feasible to use short term, real time decision making in operating the system. Here the dispatch of vehicles would be based ...
A systems analysis of short haul air transportation
(Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Flight Transportation Laboratory, [1965], 1965)
