Building Aircraft for the Competitive World Market
THE Eighth Conference on Problems of Aircraft Production, organized by The Institution of Production Engineers, was held this year at the College of Aeronautics, Cranfield, with…
Engine Design Trends—I: A Paper Delivered at the Eighth Aircraft Production Conference Organized By the Institution of Production Engineers and Held at the College of Aeronautics, Cranfield, on April 5–7, 1962
F.W.W. MorleyIN this Paper an endeavour is made to indicate the way in which design has progressed from the complex military piston engine, through the elegant simplicity of a new prime mover…
Engine Design Trends—II: A Paper Delivered at the Eighth Aircraft Production Conference Organized By the Institution of Production Engineers and Held at the College of Aeronautics, Cranfield, on April 5–7, 1962
S.G. HookerTHE paper by Mr Morley has illustrated in excellent fashion how the continued requirements for better fuel consumption, more thrust or power per unit of engine weight, more thrust…
Aircraft Design Trends: A Paper Delivered at the Eighth Aircraft Production Conference Organized by the Institution of Production Engineers and Held at the College of Aeronautics, Cranfield, on April 5–7, 1962
A.F. Newell, D. HoweMUCH has been written about possible developments in the next decade, but any forecasting must of necessity be conjectural. As far as the next generation of military aircraft is…
Fracture Phenomena in Metal Plates: Theoretical and Experimental Analysis of Crack Propagation in Metallic Alloys
S. YusuffBy comparing data obtained from tensile tests at room temperature on plates containing cracks of various lengths, it has been found that alloys of metal can be classified into…
The de Havilland DH 121 Trident: Description of the Historical Background, Configuration, Aerodynamic and Structural Features, Testing and Systems
D. R. NewmanTHE earliest origins of the Trident may be said to lie as far back as 1944 when we made some preliminary studies of the ways in which the newly arrived turbojet engine could be…
Research and Test Apparatus
New equipment for automatically measuring the proof stress of a metal removes the need for the lengthy plotting of load/extension curves previously required for determining proof…
Auxiliary Equipment
It is well known that in aircraft high‐pressure pneumatic systems it is frequently necessary to control the flow of gas by using a solenoid valve. However, with the increasing…
