Propulsion System Installation Corrections. Volume 1. Engineers Manual
Abstract
This report presents the results of a research program to develop a procedure for use in calculating propulsion system installation losses. These losses include inlet and nozzle internal losses and external drag losses for a wide variety of subsonic and supersonic aircraft configurations up to Mach 4.5. The calculation procedure, which was largely developed from existing engineering procedures and experimental data, is suitable for preliminary studies of advanced aircraft configurations. Engineering descriptions, equations, and flow charts are provided to help in adapting the calculation procedures to digital computer routines. Many of the calculation procedures have already been programmed on the CDC 6600 computer. Program listings and flow charts are provided for the calculation procedures that have been programmed. The work accomplished during the program is contained in four separate volumes. Volume 1 contains an engineering description of the calculation procedures. Volume 2 is a programmers manual containing flow charts, listings, and subroutine descriptions. Volume 3 contains sample calculations and sample input data. Volume 4 contains bookkeeping definitions and data correlations.
