Thrust Vectoring And Variable Exhaust Area For Jet Engine

Download or read book A Survey of Methods for Turbojet Thrust Measurement Applicable to Flight Installation written by William A. Fleming and published by . This book was released on 1955 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience accumulated during the past 10 years in measuring turbojet-engine thrust in altitude facilities is summarized herein to indicate the currently best-known techniques applicable for obtaining in-flight thrust measurements. Problems that are encountered in obtaining accurate thrust measurements are illustrated, and the resultant techniques required for measurement of the net thrust of several typical types of turbojet installations are discussed. Techniques for obtaining a performance calibration of the basic engine while it is installed in an airplane are also indicated.
