Investigation of the NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 and NACA 4-(10)(08)-03 Two-Blade Propellers at Forward Mach Numbers to 0.725 to Determine the Effects of Camber and Compressibility on Performance

As part of a general investigation of propellers at high forward speeds, tests of two-blade propellers having the NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 and NACA 4-(10)(08)-03 blade designs were made in the Langley 8-foot high-speed tunnel through a range of blade angle from 20 degrees to 60 degrees for forward Mach numbers from 0.165 to 0.70 to determine the effect of camber and compressibility on propeller characteristics. Results previously reported for similar tests of a two-blade propeller having the NACA 4-(3)(08)-03 blade design are included for comparison.

Analysis Report documenting the Assessment of the Solubility of Lead, EDTA and other Organic Ligands in non-Sulfide systems performed under TP 08-02 and under TP 20-01

The objective of this report is to accept or reject the hypothesis that the experiments conducted under TP 08-02 Revision 0 (Ismail et al., 2008) were affected by CO 2 (g) intrusion and sample contamination. The test of the hypothesis is accomplished by comparing the experimental data collected under the protocols of TP 08-02 Revision O and TP 20-01 Revision O (Kirkes and Zhang, 2020). The protocols of TP 20-01 Revision 0 minimize the possibilities of CO 2 (g) intrusion and sample contamination. The experimental data sets obtained under both TPs will be assessed statistically to see if they are identical or not.

Los Alamos National Laboratory Floodplain Assessment for the High Explosive Transfer Facility Blast Radius Fence Project at Technical Area 08

The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), a semi-autonomous agency within the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is proposing to take action at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) within the upper Pajarito Canyon 100-year (yr.) floodplain at Technical Area (TA) 08. This action consists of installation of a 3-strand smooth wire fence to create an operational boundary in a radius of 1250 feet (ft.) from the TA-08 High Explosive (HE) Transfer Facility (Figure 1). The proposed fence is intended to provide a barrier between the public and direct access to the HE Transfer Facility.

The Langley 2,000-horsepower Propeller Dynamometer and Tests at High Speed of an NACA 10-(3)(08)-03 Two-blade Propeller

This paper contains a detailed description of a 2,000-horsepower propeller dynamometer used to make wind-tunnel tests of a two-blade NACA 10-(3)(08)-03 propeller for a range of blade angles from 20 degrees to 55 degrees at airspeeds up to 500 miles per hour. The results of these tests and comparisons with results obtained from a theoretical analysis and from previous tests made in other wind tunnels are presented.

Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Two-blade NACA 10-(3)(062)-045 Propeller and of a Two-blade NACA 10-(3)(08)-045 Propeller

Characteristics are given for the two-blade NACA 10-(3)(062)-045 propeller and for the two-blade NACA 10-(3)(08)-045 propeller over a range of advance ratio from 0.5 to 3.8, through a blade-angle range from 20 degrees to 55 degrees measured at the 0.75 radius. Maximum efficiencies of the order of 91.5 to 92 percent were obtained for the propellers. The propeller with the thinner airfoil sections over the outboard portion of the blades, the NACA 10-(3)(062)-045 propeller, had lower losses at high tip speeds, the difference amounting to about 5 percent at a helical tip Mach number of 1.10.

Preliminary Investigation to Determine Propeller Section Characteristics by Measuring the Pressure Distribution on an NACA 10-(3)(08)-03 Propeller Under Operating Conditions

An investigation has been made in the Langley 16-foot high-speed tunnel to determine the propeller-section characteristics by measuring the pressure distribution on the airfoil sections of a rotating propeller. The pressures were measured at nine radial stations on an NACA 10-(3)(08)-03 design two-blade propeller. This paper presents the results of the pressure measurements in the form of normal-force and moment coefficients and covers a range of nominal angle of attack (simple blade element theory) from 0 degrees to 4 degrees for a section Mach number range of approximately 0.6 to 1.15 for the outboard stations and approximately 0.3 to 0.6 for inboard stations.

Preliminary Modeling of Potential Interstellar Bolide (08 Jan 2014) Suggests Further Examination is Worthwhile

The purpose of this abstract is to share data from preliminary modeling of meteor dynamics of the 08 Jan 2014 bolide which occurred north of Papua New Guinea as reported by US Department of Defense (DoD) sensors. A hypothesis has been proposed that this event was of interstellar origin. DoD data indicate that this bolide was produced by a meteor moving 44.8 km/s at only 18.7 km altitude, which describes a velocity profile that is exceptional in velocity, much less at such a low altitude. The Jörmungandr model developed by the author for dark flight modeling was adapted to estimate the luminous flight profile of this body. While this model has significant limits in use for luminous flight and all results must be viewed as preliminary, analysis indicates there is a compelling need for further investigation. Calculation of ram pressure by this object indicate that an iron or iron-rich meteorite 0.5m in diameter is a possible explanation for the reported DoD data.

Where IMERG Goes Next: Version 08 and Beyond

With the Version 07 (V07) Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) algorithm finalized and production initiated, the focus turns to enhancements for Version 08. These include innovations not included in V07 due to time constraints, plus issues revealed by the initial V07 products. One high priority is to evaluate and revise the schemes in V07 that rectify temporal artifacts caused by the time interpolation that fills the gaps between the various passive microwave (PMW) sensor overpasses. A second priority is to improve the homogeneity between the TRMM and GPM eras by characterizing differences between the two eras, determining the causes of these differences, and applying corrections as feasible, perhaps by enforcing spatial scale consistency (an overarching issue). Certainly, we must account for GPROF and the Combined Radar-Radiometer Algorithm converting to Machine Learning schemes in V08. Other priority topics include additional automated quality control for artifacts in the IR brightness temperatures and PMW precipitation fields, revisions to the specification algorithm for the probability of liquid precipitation, and accommodating new PMW sensors, which include the next generation of small-sats. We also consider the post-V08 landscape; the final GPM reprocessing will be restricted to fixing known code or algorithmic errors. Nonetheless, there are several data sources on the horizon to consider, including more small-sat PMW radiometers, AVHRR-based precipitation estimates (most useful in high latitudes), and the ISCCP-Next Generation and GEO-Ring projects that could provide easy access to multiple geosynchronous satellite channels and enable significantly improved algorithms compared to GEO-IR alone.

Document Traceability Internal Audit of the Analytical Laboratory Report on 08-26-2021

An internal audit was performed in ALAB 8/25/21 to the NELAC 2016 Standard requirements using the NELAC 2016 checklist (TNI 2016 CSDP-Volume1Checklist-Master-2-15-18-v9). The scope of the internal audit was a document traceability of the environmental testing in LRF-00118, LRF00095, and LRF 00133 performed in ALAB. The internal audit resulted in five deficiencies and two comments. The deficiencies were addressed using the ALAB non-conformance reporting system, see ALAB NCRs 10002742-10002746. FRM-5100 Management Observation and NCRs are attached.
