โฆ Synopsis
This report is a compilation of test data on airplane fuselages, nacelles, airship cars, seaplane floats, and seaplane hulls, prepared by the Bureau of Aeronautics, at the request of the Committee. The discussion of the data includes the derivation of a scale correction curve to be used in obtaining the full-scale drag. Composite curves of drag and L/D for floats and hulls are also given.
Report 238 , The Effect of Flight Path Inclination on Airplane Velocity. By Walter S. Diehl, Bureau of Aeronautics. IO pages, illustrations, quarto. Washington, Government Printing Office, 1926. Price, five cents.
This report was prepared at the request of the Committee in order to supply a systematic study of the relations between the flight velocity V and its horizontal component [7tt , in power glides. Curves of V and VII plotted against the inclination of the flight path 0 are given, together with curves which show the maximum values of V H and the corresponding values of e. Curves are also given showing the effect of small departures from the horizontal in high-speed performance testing.
