Book Description
A comprehensive experimental program was conducted to provide nozzle-afterbody data with a minimum interference support system on a 1/9-scale F-16 model and to determine the interference induced on the afterbody-nozzle region by a sting, a wingtip, and a strut model support system. The investigation was conducted over the Mach number range from 0.6 to 1.5 and at angles of attack from 0 to 9 deg. Interference was evaluated by comparison of nozzle-afterboy axial and normal forces obtained from integrating pressure data. The results include parametric studies of the efects of various components of the wingtip support system (i.e., the support blade axial position, wingtip boom diameter, boom spacing, and boom-tip axial location). High-pressure air at ambient temperature was utilized for exhaust plume simulation. The results indicate that a sting support passing through the nozzle with the jet effects simulated by an annular jet appears to offer a minimum interference support system for the type of nozzle-afterbody test described in this report.

Book Description
An experimental program was conducted to parametrically study the interference on an afterbody model that would be produced by the aft-support blade used with a wingtip support system. Geometric variables included the blade axial location, thickness, span, chord, and leading- and trailing-edge contours. Data were obtained over the Mach number range from 0.6 to 1.2 with the model at zero angle of attack. Interference was evaluated by comparing afterbody drag from a reference configuration, which had the aft-support blade removed, to the various configurations with a blade installed. A reasonable correlation of the blade interference effects on the afterbody drag coefficient was obtained, which included the influence of support blade axial position and blockage. Decreasing blade leading-edge bluntness by a factor of two resulted in a significant reduction of interference in the Mach number range from 0.9 to 1.1. Significantly greater interference was measured without jet flow than with jet flow. It is shown that a Euler equation computer code is a useful tool for the design of minimum interference support systems. (Author).

Book Description
Liquid helium has been studied for its intrinsic interest through much of the 20th century. In the past decade, much has been learned about heat transfer in liquid helium because of the need to cool superconducting magnets and other devices. The topic of the Seventh Oregon Conference on Low Temperature Physics was an applied one, namely the use of liquid and gaseous helium to generate high Reynolds number flows. The low kinematic viscosity of liquid helium automatically makes high Reynolds numbers accessible and the question addressed in this conference was to explore various possibilities to see what practical devices might be built using liquid or gaseous helium. There are a number of possibilities: construction of a wind tunnel using critical helium gas, free surface testing, low speed flow facilities using helium I and helium ll. At the time of the conference, most consideration had been given to the last possibility because it seemed both possible and useful to build a flow facility which could reach unprecedented Reynolds numbers. Such a device could be useful in pure research for studying turbulence, and in applied research for testing models much as is done in a water tunnel. In order to examine these possibilities in detail, we invited a wide range of experts to Eugene in October 1989 to present papers on their own specialties and to listen to presentations on the liquid helium proposals.
