    • Calculation of a self-consistent, low frequency electrostatic field in the drift-kinetic approximation 

      Beasley, Cloyd Orris, 1933-; Meier, H. K. Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Rij, W. I. van. Oak Ridge National Laboratory; McCune, James E. (James Elliot) (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Gas Turbine and Plasma Dynamics Laboratory, [1977], 1977)
      We derive an asymptotic series in [omega]p -2 , the inverse-square plasma frequency, for the self-consistent, low frequency electrostatic field in tori. The derivation is consistent with the drift-kinetic ordering and may ...

    • Comparison of three dimensional quasi-linear large swirl theory with measured outflow from a high-work compressor rotor 

      Chen, Lee-Tzong; McCune, James E. (James Elliot) (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1975], 1975)
      A three-dimensional perturbation theory for incompressible strongly swirling flow in an annulus is applied to predict the outflow from a high-work compressor rotor (1)(2). A comparison of the analytical result with the ...

    • Lifting-line theory for subsonic axial compressor rotors 

      McCune, James E. (James Elliot); Dharwadkar, Shashikant Prabhakar (Cambridge, Mass. : Gas Turbine Laboratory , Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1972], 1972)
      The three-dimensional compressible vortex theory of an axial compressor rotor or ducted fan is extended by relating blade loading to blade geometry in the lifting-line approximation. The resulting integral equation, which ...
