NACA Technical Notes

From Introduction: "The development of the measuring apparatus and techniques is presented herein. The application of the analogy to flows through nozzles and about circular cylinders at subsonic velocities extending into supercritical range is also presented.

NACA Technical Reports

"The theory of the hydraulic analogy -- that is, the analogy between water flow with a free surface and two-dimensional compressible gas flow -- and the limitations and conditions of the analogy are discussed. A test was run using the hydraulic analogy as applied to the flow about circular cylinders of various diameters at subsonic velocities extending into the supercritical range. The apparatus and techniques used in this application are described and criticized" (p. 311)

Rapport quadriennal 1995-1998

The aim of our paper is to show the importance of geomagnetic data to the knowledge of the main geomagnetic field and its secular variation, and also of the temporal, in order to survey the Earth's environment. Firstly, we recall the results obtained on the high-resolution secular variation of the geomagnetic field in two sites situated in Western Europe (London and Paris) over the last four centuries. The declination data are remarkably well correlated between the two sites and can be used to construct a more complete and accurate synthetic series, in which many gaps or times with scattered or uncertain data can be amended. The built declination synthetic series is believed to be valid for much Western Europe, and information about the secular variation in this area are obtained. But, to characterise the geomagnetic field, the spatial variations are also important. To monitor the field variations, an international program has been developed since 1988. Under the INTERMAGNET program, high quality data from a global network of geomagnetic observatories are sent in near real time via satellite and computer links to world-wide collection and disseminatin points called "Geomagnetic Information Nodes" or GINs. All INTERMAGNET observatories operate with the same common specifications (resolution, filtering, sampling rate, data formats etc.) Today, the INTERMAGNET observatories data-sets of 1.0 minute values with good baselines are available within minutes and hours from about 60 observatories. Another INTERMAGNET goal is to fill out the global geomagnetic observatory distribution. In fact, a recent study specified the minimum number of equally spaced observatories needed to do a degree and order 10 spherical harmonic model of the main field. The model required a minimum of 92 observatories on about a 2,000 km spacing. Eight sites would require ocean bottom observatories... (D'après résumé d'auteur

The temporal and spatial variations of low frequency geomagnetic pulsations at polar cusp and cap latitudes

Geomagnetic field measurements at two Antarctic stations are compared during two weeks in the local summer (January 1-15, 1992). Low frequency (0.6-6 mHz) pulsations are observed at each station near local magnetic noon. The same wave packets appear in some cases also at the other station, although with a significant attenuation, more clearly in the morning sector; the waves show a near noon reversal of the polarization sense from counter-clockwise in the morning to clockwise in the afternoon indicating a westward and an eastward propagation, respectively
