| Title: | Structural Substation For Engine Compartment Fire Vertol 42 Helicopter | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Author: | L. Bryant | ||||
| Abstract: | It is required by CAR 6.384 that in the event of fire in the engine compartment, a controlled landing of the rotorcraft can be made. This report has been prepared to show that, in the event of such a fire, the Vertol 42 Helicopter will maintain sufficient structural strength to make a controlled emergency landing. | ||||

| Title: | Evaluation of the Resetting Continuous Fire-Detection System for the B-36 Aircraft Nacelle | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Author: | Lyle E. Tarbell, | ||||
| Abstract: | A continuous type of fire-detection system for the B-36 aircraft nacelle was designed jointly by qualified personnel of the Department of Air Force, Civil Aeronautics Administration, and detector manufacturers. Two manufacturers, using their own equipment, then made similar installation of the system in the B-36 test nacelle at the CAA Technical Development Center. This system was evaluated by fire tests under simulated flight conditions and was found to be effective. Only minor changes were recommended as a result of the tests. Shortly thereafter, the company which submitted the lowest bid was awarded a contract to supply fire-detection equipment for installation on all operational B-36 aircraft. At the time the award was made the forward portion of the nacelle was, for all practical purposes, a portion of the wing. Subsequent modifications to the nacelle, however, crated was new zone in this region. Because the protection afforded by the original detection system was limited to the engine and lower accessory compartments, further tests were conducted to contrive an effective arrangement of the system in the new zone. The system described in this report is recommended for protection of the entire revised B-36 aircraft nacelle. |
