    • A light scattering investigation of droplet growth in nozzle condensation 

      Roberts, Richard, Sc. D. Massachusetts Institute of Technology /, by Richard Roberts (Cambridge, Mass., Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1969, 1969)
      An experimental and theoretical study has been made of the condensation of water vapor (with air carrier) in a supersonic nozzle in order to investigate the possible existence of condensate droplets which are substantially ...

    • Boundary layer effects on airfoil lift 

      Schneider, Kurt H. (Kurt Herbert) (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1958], 1958)
      A study of the discrepancy in lift between potential flow calculations and experiments was made. In potential flow the fluid is assumed to follow the contour of the airfoil, forming a stagnation point at the geometric ...

    • The design of axial inducers for turbo-pumps 

      Stenning, Alan H. (Alan Hugh) (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1958], 1958)
      In many turbopump applications it is desirable to run the pump at the highest possible speed to minimise the size and weight of the unit and facilitate matching with a drive turbine. Frequently, a limit on rotational speed ...
