Charts of Pressure Rise Obtainable with Airfoil-type Axial-flow Cooling Fans


Book Description

Charts are presented to show the pressure rise that is obtainable in an engine-cooling installation with a typical airfoil-type propeller-speed fan. The charts cover fans of the stator-rotor, rotor-stator, and rotor alone configurations, with blades incorporating both the highly cambered 65-series blower-blade sections and the conventional low-cambered airfoil sections. The effects of operation of a geared fan with rotational speeds limited by compressibility considerations and the effects of initial rotational inflow are indicated. Use of the charts to predict the pressure rise obtainable with any fan of the types considered is illustrated in a sample calculation.

Standard Procedures for Rating and Testing Multistage Axial-flow Compressors


Book Description

In order to establish a standard procedure for rating and testing multistage axial-flow compressors, the NACA Subcommittee on Compressors appointed a panel to write such a procedure. This panel made recommendations for standardization of test setups, instrumentation, test procedure, data to be taken, and the presentation of the data. These recommendations are presented.
