Micarta Propellers III : General Description of the Design

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) · 1924 · 4 pictures

This is a 1924 NACA technical memorandum by NASA Technical Reports Server records, describing the design of Micarta propellers for aircraft engineers and researchers. The pictures include line diagrams of wing-section air pressure and centre-of-gravity positions, a performance chart comparing Micarta and wooden propellers on a Curtiss OX-4 engine, and photographs of propeller blades and a biplane nose with propeller. A designer might take from them the clean line-drawing style of technical diagrams and the sleek airfoil silhouettes.
