The NACA Apparatus for Studying the Formation and Combustion of Fuel Sprays and the Results from Preliminary Tests
A 1933 NACA technical report from the NASA Technical Reports Server, describing an apparatus for studying how fuel sprays form and burn, written for engineers and researchers in engine combustion. Its pictures are black-and-white engineering drawings and photographs: cross-section diagrams of fuel injection parts, a wiring schematic with a rotary distributor and parabolic reflector, a photographed test rig on a wooden frame, and a row of timed sequence frames showing flame and fuel ignition, useful to a designer for technical line diagrams and the look of early laboratory equipment.
