The results are presented of a glass bead test conducted with a JPL P/N 71 x 12400 etched disk filter assembly to determine the largest diameter spherical glass bead that would transmit through the filter assembly. It was found that the largest glass bead transmitted was 16 microns in diameter.
The results are presented of tests conducted on a series of 13 foot rotors with various blade twists during the time period from 1969 to 1972. The tests were accomplished at AFAPL Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio and the ONERA 8-meter tunnel at Modane, France. Both static and cruise performance data are presented.

The first shock reflection within truncated plug nozzle propulsive jets is investigated experimentally using a free jet blow-down facility. The locations and sizes of these reflections in axisymmetric plug nozzles, with cylindrical shrouds and conical truncated plugs, are presented. Data are presented for a range of ambient to nozzle total pressure ratios. The effects of Mach disk location and size resulting from changing plug length and from varying amounts of base bleed are documented.
Techniques were developed for presenting an analytical and graphical means for selecting an optimum flywheel system design, based on system requirements, geometric constraints, and weight limitations. The techniques for creating an analytical solution are formulated from energy and structural principals. The resulting flywheel design relates stress and strain pattern distribution, operating speeds, geometry, and specific energy levels. The design techniques incorporate the lowest stressed flywheel for any particular application and achieve the highest specific energy per unit flywheel weight possible. Stress and strain contour mapping and sectional profile plotting reflect the results of the structural behavior manifested under rotating conditions. This approach toward flywheel design is applicable to any metal flywheel, and permits the selection of the flywheel design to be based solely on the criteria of the system requirements that must be met, those that must be optimized, and those system parameters that may be permitted to vary.
