The linearized solution for the two-dimensional flow over an inlet of general form has been derived, assuming incompressible potential flow. With this theory suction forces at sharp inlet lips can be estimated and ideal inlets can be designed.

Abstract A method is presented for calculating the efficiency of a diffuser for two-dimensional, steady, incompressible flow without separation. The method involves a combination of organized boundary-layer data and frictionless potential-flow relations. The potential velocity and pressure are found after the boundary-layer growth is determined by a trial-and-check calculation.

On the basis of the assumption of incompressible inviscid fluid, a linearized solution has been derived for the two-dimensional flow over an inlet of general form. The theory can be used to estimate the external drag of the inlets with sharp lips at subsonic speeds.

The conditions for the equilibrium of two vortexes in a two-dimensional flow through a duct or diffuser are derived. Potential-flow considerations and a few basic results from viscous-flow theory are used for the discussion of the role of cusps as separation control and trapping devices for standing vortexes. The investigations are applied to cusp diffusers especially with regard to the wind tunnel of the James Forrestal Research Center of Princeton University.

The effect of the variation of axial velocity in the incompressible flow through a cascade of aerofoils is discussed and it is shown that changes take place in the flow angles and in the blade circulation. A method is proposed by which the effect of axial velocity variation on a known two-dimensional flow or alternatively the two-dimensional equivalent of a flow with axial velocity variation can be calculated. The method is very easy to apply. The deviation may increase or decrease depending on the change in blade circulation and the stagger. An increase in apparent deflection through the cascade can be accompanied by a reduction in the blade force. The method would be particularly useful for the interpretation of cascade wind tunnel data and in the design of impeller stages where three-dimensional flows occur.

SummaryIncompressible flow perpendicular to a flexible, impervious membrane has been studied for two-dimensional conditions. The membrane was mounted on relatively thin supports spaced c apart. Measurements of drag, base pressure and the frequency of membrane oscillation are presented for various lengths ℓ, and for two densities, of membrane. These parameters are related to one another theoretically and in particular Bearman′s universal correlation for Strouhal number agrees with the experimental results. It is found that for values of< 0.50 the drag is independent of membrane density. The drag decreases at larger values ofand this is related to a periodic reattachment of the separated flow to the back of the membrane. For a given ℓ the drag is greatest whenis very small and the membrane is almost flat.
