The air resistance of racing cyclists Open
Tests in the closed-section wind-tunnel on three different cyclists mounted on a racing bicycle are described, and figures quoted for the recorded air resistance. Some comments are also included on the implications of the results concernin…
The man-propelled aircraft: a preliminary assessment Open
1. Introduction \nIt is the intention of this note to set down a few \ntentative, but (it is hoped) realistic, assessments of \nthe problems involved in the design of an aircraft \nwhich by the crew's own muscular efforts shall take off \n…
Incompressible flow past bodies of revolution Open
In this paper we shall attempt to review the existing \ninformation, both theoretical and experimental, which relates to \nsame of the more important aerodynamic problems arising in the \nstudy of the flaw over bodies of revolution. Many o…
The wave drag of highly-swept wings: a comparison of linear theory and slender body theory Open
This note comments on the comparison between the \nanswer obtained by linear theory for the wave drag of \nslender-wings (as interpreted by the limit and that value for the drag obtained by Slender-Body Theory. \nIt is shown that for fully…
A resume of maximum lift data for symmetrical wings, with various high-lift aids Open
We shall attempt here to summarise the existing \ndata on the values of the low-speed CLmax of wings, \nin the absence of a fuselage, and without including \ninformation on stalling incidence or pitching moment. \nThe summary is limited to…
The theoretical wave drag at zero lift of fully tapered swept wings of arbitrary section Open
An expression is deduced for the wave drag of a fully tapered swept wing of arbitrary section in the convenient form of a double integral involving the variation of wing-surface slope. It is concluded, in the general case, that the drag ma…
The two-dimensional laminar boundary layer at hypersonic speeds Open
A numerical solution is found for the equations governing the motion of a two-dimensional laminar boundary layer, in the absence of a pressure gradient, which would be valid if the flight Mach number is very high (i.e. M2>>1). The effects …
The Laminar Boundary Layer in Slip Flow Open
This report discusses the effects of the existence of a small, but finite, molecular mean-free-path on the steady air flow in the laminar boundary later. The boundary conditions at the exposed surface are modified by the existence of a sli…
Surface conduction of the heat transferred from a boundary layer Open
This note considers the effect of thermal conductivity upon the temperature distribution in the skin of a body (moving through air) due to the heat transferred from the boundary layer. It is found that the effects are of importance only ve…
