This paper will present work being done to model and simulate a CDMA based Mobile Satellite System architecture for providing all or part of the future Air Traffic Management (ATM) services. Such a system, will help in relieving the dependence on ground based networks, if not eliminate it. Additionally such an architecture can be used in parallel or as a supplementary service along with ground based links to help alleviate any capacity bottlenecks, or in areas where such services are difficult...

Performance characteristics of the turbine of a 4000-pound-thrust axial-flow turbojet engine was determined in investigations of the complete engine in the NACA Cleveland altitude wind tunnel. Characteristics are presented as functions of the total-pressure ratio across the turbine and of turbine speed and gas flow corrected to sea-level conditions. Three turbine nozzles of different areas were used to determine the area that gave optimum performance. Inasmuch as tail-pipe nozzles of different...

The second object is to apply this transformation to the special case of the adiabatic turbulent boundary layer on a smooth wall.

An experimental study of surface pressure distributions on a family of blunt and sharp large angle cones was made in hypersonic flows of helium, air, and tetrafluoromethane. The effective isentropic exponents of these flows were 1.67, 1.40, and 1.12. Thus, the effect of large shock density ratios such as might be encountered during planetary entry because of real-gas effects could be studied by comparing results in tetrafluoromethane with those in air and helium. It was found that shock density...

Past designs of complex aerospace systems involved an environment consisting of collocated design teams with project managers, technical discipline experts, and other experts (e.g. manufacturing and systems operations). These experts were generally qualified only on the basis of past design experience and typically had access to a limited set of integrated analysis tools. These environments provided less than desirable design fidelity, often lead to the inability of assessing critical...

Panel method code ANTARES was developed to compute wall interference corrections in a rectangular wind tunnel. The code uses point doublets to represent blockage effects and line doublets to represent lifting effects of a wind tunnel model. Subsonic compressibility effects are modeled by applying the Prandtl-Glauert transformation. The closed wall, open jet, or perforated wall boundary condition may be assigned to a wall panel centroid. The tunnel walls can be represented by using up to 8000...

A class of conservative difference approximations for the steady full potential equation was presented. They are, in general, easier to program than the usual density biasing algorithms, and in fact, differ only slightly from them. Rigorous proof indicated that these new schemes satisfied a new discrete entropy inequality, which ruled out expansion shocks, and that they have sharp, steady, discrete shocks. A key tool in the analysis is the construction of a new entropy inequality for the full...

Experiments were performed to determine the effect of subsonic inlet Mach number on diffuser performance and flow regimes for a wide range of conical diffuser geometries. As the Mach number is increased, the flow tends more toward separation in all cases. Diffuser performance maps are presented for three different inlet Mach numbers (S sub 1 = 0.25, 0.55, 0.70). There is no significant variation in the location of the line of maximum performance at constant length to inlet radius ratio, line...

This report concerns the problem of constructing solutions for transonic flows over symmetric airfoils. The aspect of the problem emphasized is, of necessity, not how to form a solution for compressible flow but how to simplify the initial phase of the problem, namely, the mapping of the incompressible flow. In the case of the symmetric Joukowski airfoil without circulation, the mapping is relatively simple, but the coefficients in the power series are difficult to evaluate. As a result, the...

We propose a novel method to implicitly two-way couple Eulerian compressible flow to volumetric Lagrangian solids. The method works for both deformable and rigid solids and for arbitrary equations of state. The method exploits the formulation of [11] which solves compressible fluid in a semi-implicit manner, solving for the advection part explicitly and then correcting the intermediate state to time tn+1 using an implicit pressure, obtained by solving a modified Poisson system. Similar to...

The application to the transonic range conforms with, and is carried out within the framework of, the transonic similarity theory. The results include velocity distributions for...

Shock processing plays an important role in the life of a typical interstellar grain. Shocks of 100 km/s-l or greater can destroy about 50% of the grain material under appropriate preshock conditions of density and magnetic field. The destruction occurs by grain-grain collisions and nonthermal sputtering for steady state radiative shocks and by thermal sputtering for fast adiabatic shocks. The evaluation of the lifetime of grains against shock destruction depends on models of the interstellar...

This report describes a numerical method to calculate the flow of a compressible fluid in the presence of shocks. It is related to the method of von Neumann and Richtmyer and, to a lesser extent, to that of P. Lax. This method permits a number of variations which were compared by testing them on some analytically known one-dimensional flow patterns. The calculations were carried out on the Los Alamos MANIAC.

It is established that while it was reasonable to assume that the most important fault behavior modes of primitive components and simple subsystems could be known and predicted, interactions within composite systems reached levels of complexity that precluded the use of traditional rule-based expert system techniques.
