Summary report on analytical evaluation of air and fuel specific-impulse characteristics of several nonhydrocarbon jet-engine fuels
A Review of NACA Research Through 1954 on Boron Compounds as Fuels for Jet Aircraft (project Zip)
Theoretical Combustion Performance of Several High-Energy Fuels for Ramjet Engines
An analytical evaluation of the air and fuel specific-impulse characteristics of magnesium, magnesium octene-1 slurries, aluminum, aluminum octene-1 slurries, boron, boron octene-1 slurries, carbon, hydrogen, alpha-methylnaphthalene, diborane, pentaborane, and octene-1 is presented. While chemical equilibrium was assumed in the combustion process, the expansion was assumed to occur at fixed composition

Memorandum presenting the beneficial effects on stability limits and combustion efficiency produced by the application of surfaces immersed in the combustion zone to a ram-jet-type burner. Investigations were made with one, two, three, and four rows of wedges at simulated sea-level and altitude subsonic ram-jet flight conditions. The addition of rows of wedges immersed in the combustion zone regularly extended the stability limits of combustion
