ALPHA RADIATION HYGROMETER. VOLUME II. FROST-POINT HYGROMETER FOR W-47 AIRCRAFT.

Abstract

A frost-point hygrometer for use on W-47 aircraft has been designed utilizing alpha radiation techniques to measure the condensate thickness on cooled surfaces. A study of the problems associated with making frost-point measurements from high-speed aircraft was made as part of the design program. (Author)
