| Abstract | This report describes the construction and testing of a jet engine ejector tunnel erected in the Engine Laboratory of the National Research Council in Ottawa.
The tunnel was built for the purpose of simulating flight conditions around the nose of a Jumo 004 jet engine to be used in connection with icing experiments.
Velocity traverses near the nose of the engine indicated that speeds up to about 230 feet per second could be attained, and that a ratio of secondary to primary air flow of about 5.5:1 was reached.
A brief investigation of the flow pattern around the nose of the engine has shown that at the speed attained, the air stream accelerates considerably before reaching the engine intake and that the flow breaks away rather badly from the outer skin of the cowling. |
