Book Description
A New Edition of the Most Effective Text/Reference in the Field! Aerodynamics, Aeronautics, and Flight Mechanics, Second Edition Barnes W. McCormick, Pennsylvania State University 57506-2 When the first edition of Aerodynamics, Aeronautics, and Flight Mechanics was published, it quickly became one of the most important teaching and reference tools in the field. Not only did generations of students learn from it, they continue to use it on the job-the first edition remains one of the most well-thumbed guides you'll find in an airplane company. Now this classic text/reference is available in a bold new edition. All new material and the interweaving of the computer throughout make the Second Edition even more practical and current than before! A New Edition as Complete and Applied as the First Both analytical and applied in nature, Aerodynamics, Aeronautics, and Flight Mechanics presents all necessary derivations to understand basic principles and then applies this material to specific examples. You'll find complete coverage of the full range of topics, from aerodynamics to propulsion to performance to stability and control. Plus, the new Second Edition boasts the same careful integration of concepts that was an acclaimed feature of the previous edition. For example, Chapters 9, 10, and 11 give a fully integrated presentation of static, dynamic, and automatic stability and control. These three chapters form the basis of a complete course on stability and control. New Features You'll Find in the Second Edition * A new chapter on helicopter and V/STOL aircraft- introduces a phase of aerodynamics not covered in most current texts * Even more material than the previous edition, including coverage of stealth airplanes and delta wings * Extensive use of the computer throughout- each chapter now contains several computer exercises * A computer disk with programs written by the author is available

X-15
Author: Dennis R. Jenkins
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781470025854
Category : Aerodynamics, Hypersonic
Languages : en
Pages : 704
Book Description
The X-15 was the ultimate "X" vehicle. Built in the 1950s, she became the fastest and highest-flying winged aircraft of its time. During 199 flights from 1959 through 1968, she collected data about hypersonic flight that was invaluable to aeronautics and to developers of the space shuttle. This book describes the genesis of the program, the design and construction of the aircraft, years of research flights and the experiments that flew aboard them.-publisher description.

An Evaluation of Proposed Reference Fuel Scales for Knock Rating
Author: Henry C. Barnett
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Fuel
Languages : en
Pages : 62
Book Description
This paper presents the results showing the antiknock performance characteristics of proposed reference fuels (triptane, n-heptane, isooctane) in current fuel knock-rating engines. The proposed reference-fuel scales are compared with the octane-number scale and the performance-number scale now in use.

Surface Properties of Oils
Author: J. W. McBain
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Lubrication and lubricants
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
The surface properties of oils were studied in a short series of experiments on their film viscosities and surface tensions. Information about film formation in general was obtained from the behavior of single bubbles on the surface and from the coalesence of pairs of bubbles below the surface of various pure and binary liquids.
