Swirl-can combustor segment
Combustor produces uniform circumferential and radial combustor exit temperature profiles and high combustion efficiency at high temperature loads. Absence of diluent air entry ports eliminates stress concentration points, low pressure fuel alleviates nozzle fouling, and abundant air at all burning stages reduces smoke.

Induction torches and low frequency tests
Three induction-coupled plasma torches were operated at 9600 Hz to determine specific operating parameters and supply data for gas core nuclear rocket simulation studies. Two air-cooled torches, one 16 cm in diameter and one 30 cm in diameter, and a water-cooled torch 14 cm in diameter, were tested. Complete energy balances for the operating systems were obtained during operation. A series of operating points, including pressures from 30 torr to 1 atmosphere, power levels up to 343 kw, and gas flows from 1.1 to 35 g/sec, were documented. Complete operating data for approximately thirty runs are presented, along with graphs of significant operating parameters.

Numerical simulation of noise propagation in jet engine ducts
A finite difference formulation is presented which is useful in the study of acoustically treated inlet and exhaust ducts used in turbofan engines. The difference formulation can readily handle acoustic flow field complications, such as axial variations in wall impedance and cross-sectional area, that would occur in a sonic inlet. In formulating the difference solutions, the continuous acoustic field is lumped into a series of grid points spread uniformly throughout the field. At each point, the pressure is separated into its real and imaginary terms. Example solutions are presented for sound propagation in a one-dimensional straight hard-wall duct and in a two-dimensional straight soft-wall duct without steady flow.

Thermodynamic and related properties of parahydrogen from the triple point to 300 K at pressures to 1000 bar
Compressibility measurements and thermodynamic properties data for parahydrogen were extended to higher temperatures and pressures. Results of an experimental program are presented in the form of new pressure, volume and temperature data in the temperature range 23 to 300 K at pressures up to 800 bar. Also given are tables of thermodynamic properties on isobars to 1000 bar including density, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, specific heats at constant volume and constant pressure, velocity of sound, and surface derivatives. The accuracy of the data is discussed and comparisons are made with previous data.

Thermodynamic and related properties of oxygen from the triple point to 300 K at pressures to 1000 bar
The results of an experimental program are presented in the form of PVT data in the temperature range 58 to 300 K at pressures up to 800 bar. Tables of the derived thermodynamic properties on isobars to 1000 bar are given, including density, internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, specific heats at constant volume and constant pressure, velocity of sound, and the surface derivatives (delta P/delta T) sub rho and (delta P/delta Rho) sub T. Auxiliary tables in engineering units are also given. The accuracy of the data is discussed and comparisons are made with previous data.

Flow fields in supersonic inlets
Flow fields in two- and three-dimensional axisymmetric supersonic inlets are calculated with computer program that uses method of characteristics to compute array of points in flow field. At each point, local pressure, local Mach number, local flow angle, and static pressure are calculated. Program can be used to design and analyze supersonic inlets by determining surface compression rates and throat flow properties.

Turbulence measurements in high-speed flows by resonant fluoresence
Both mean flow and turbulence measurements were investigated using the resonant Doppler velocimeter in a Mach 3.2 nitrogen flow. Data are presented showing velocity, temperature and pressure measured point by point across the flow field. This data is compared with conventional pitot and temperature surveys. Turbulence was induced by a small metal tab in the flow and observed by both hot wire and RDV techniques. Photographs of the flow field demonstrate the utility of the RDV for quantitative flow field visualization.

Experimental study of external fuel vaporization
The fuel properties used in the design of a flash vaporization system for aircraft gas turbine engines were evaluated in experiments using a flowing system to determine critical temperature and pressure, boiling points, dew points, heat transfer coefficients, deposit formation rates, and deposit removal. Three fuels were included in the experiments: Jet-A, an experimental referree broad specification fuel, and a premium No. 2 diesel fuel. Engine conditions representing a NASA Energy Efficient Engine at sea-level take-off, cruise, and idle were simulated in the vaporization system and it was found that single phase flow was maintained in the heat exchanger and downstream of the throttle. Deposits encountered in the heat exchanger represented a thermal resistance as high as 1300 sq M K/watt and a deposit formation rate over 1000 gC/sq cm hr.

Measuring Small Leak Holes
Hole sizes deduced from pressure measurements. Measuring apparatus consists of pitot tube attached to water-filled manometer. Compartment tested is pressurized with air. Pitot probe placed at known distance from leak. Dynamic pressure of jet measured at that point and static pressure measured in compartment. Useful in situations in which small leaks are tolerable but large leaks are not.

Predicting Failures of Composite, Spherical Pressure Vessels
Long-term viscoelastic effects computed to predict bursts. Spherical pressure vessels commonly made of filamentary composites for applications they must light in weight. Program developed for predicting failure of such vessel over long time span. Short-term failure pressures (bursting points) predicted, but long-term structual integrity of laminated vessels studied only now.

Covariances and spectra of the kinematics and dynamics of nonlinear waves
Using the Stokes waves as a model of nonlinear waves and considering the linear component as a narrow-band Gaussian process, the covariances and spectra of velocity and acceleration components and pressure for points in the vicinity of still water level were derived taking into consideration the effects of free surface fluctuations. The results are compared with those obtained earlier using linear Gaussian waves.

Comparative verification between GEM model and official aviation terminal forecasts
The Generalized Exponential Markov (GEM) model uses the local standard airways observation (SAO) to predict hour-by-hour the following elements: temperature, pressure, dew point depression, first and second cloud-layer height and amount, ceiling, total cloud amount, visibility, wind, and present weather conditions. GEM is superior to persistence at all projections for all elements in a large independent sample. A minute-by-minute GEM forecasting system utilizing the Automated Weather Observation System (AWOS) is under development.

Method of controlling a resin curing process
An analytical technique for controlling the curing process of fiber-reinforced composite materials that are formed using thermosetting resins. The technique is the percent gel method and involves development of a time-to-gel equation as s function of temperature. From this equation a rate-of-gel equation is then determined, and a percent gel is calculated which is the product of the rate-of-gel times time. Percent gel accounting is used to control the proper pressure application point in an autoclave cure process to achieve desired properties in a production composite part.
