An ingestible temperature-transmitter

Pill-sized transmitter measures deep body temperature in studies of circadian rhythm and indicates general health. Ingestible device is a compromise between accuracy, circuit complexity, size and transmission range.

Preliminary investigation of inlet ingestion of a wing tip vortex

An inlet-coldpipe assembly was placed in a Mach 0.4 stream to ingest the tip vortex of a forward mounted wing. The strongest vortex was produced by a wing angle of attack of 11 degrees. The vortex displayed a tangential velocity of 57 percent of local stream velocity prior to entering the inlet, and a tangential velocity of 25 percent of local velocity at the simulated compressor-face. The total-pressure profiles measured by standard compressor-face rakes were changed by the presence of the vortex only at the highest tested inlet mass-flow ratios.
