NACA Research Memorandums

An investigation was conducted to evaluate the operational characteristics of a 3000 pound thrust axial flow turbojet engine over a range of simulated altitudes from 2000 to 50,000 feet and simulated flight Mach numbers from 0 to 1.04 throughout the operable range of engine speeds. Engine operating range, acceleration, deceleration, starting, altitude, and flight Mach number compensation of the fuel control system, and operation of the lubrication system at high and low ambient air temperatures were evaluated
