About this book

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930091320: Flow and Drag Formulas for Simple Quadrics

Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Year: 1927

This report gives the pressure distribution and resistance found by theory and experiment for simple quadrics fixed in an infinite uniform stream of practically incompressible fluid. The experimental values pertain to air and some liquids, especially water; the theoretical refer sometimes to perfect, again to viscid fluids. For the cases treated the concordance of theory and measurement is so close as to make a resume of results desirable. Incidentally formulas for the velocity at all points of the flow field are given, some being new forms for ready use derived in a previous paper. (author)
