¥ o POLIGEMAN FOUND DRUNK SUSPENDED Board Lays Dombrauskas O for Three Month Period Officer Stanley Dombrauskas, who | was found intoxicated on Farming- | ton avenue by Sergeant T. J. Feeney | on January 21, was suspended from | duty for a period of three months from that date, at a meeting of the | board of police commissioners last | night. The officer appeared before the discipline committee, as did Ser- | geant Feeney, and later was called | before the board and informed of | the sentence. He pleaded guilty and } Chairman Chamberlain told him the commissioners would make a mental note of his expressed determination to leave drink alone. “When the three months period is up, you will | be welcomed back to the force,” the | chairman said.

Carmody) Just as the automobile has fts | proving ground, so has the airplane |its wind tunnel. While the functions |of the two are similar, there is one significant difference between them. | At the proving ground, the complete automobile is sent through various Itests but in the wind tunnel, dim- |inutive models, instead of the full- Isized airplanes, are tested far var- lious qualities, capacities, and per- | formance. | Despite the fact that the wind |tunnel has not yet reached perfec- |tion in one or two important feat- lures, it has been even more indis- | | ! pensable to aviation than the prov- ling ground has been to motordom. {As a matter of fact, the Wright |brothers credit their original flight {in 1903 to the light that their first {small, crude, wind tunnel threw up- ‘on one of the most important fund- amentals of aeronautical science, the proper shape of the airplane wing. Not Generally Known Since that time the wind tunnel ihas come along splendidly, and in the wake of its development has {come the airplane. But, in spite |of its prominence in aviation pro- |gress, the wind tunnel has pretty {well escaped public attention, ex- cept as a name. Flying has had so {tic aspects than . this laboratory feature that it was inevitable thaf the wind tunnel <hould fail to ap- peal to anyone save the engineer. Technically, a wind tunnel s wich more than a large conical- [shaped tube through which air is { passed at a terrific speed, but if the |layman gets this picture of it, he has (enough to understand the layout of ithe airplanc’s “proving ground.” Huge dynamo-driven fans located |at the large end of the tube force lair through at ‘any desired rate of | flow-up to 300 miles an hour against [the stationary model. This descrip- ftion of a wind tunnel is so simple that it belies the tremendous com- plication of its equipment. Of great lover-all size, requiring countless | delicate features and accessories, a !wind tunnel that is at all accurate {and valuable is an expensive propo- |sition, The new tunnel at Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio, the Army Air crvice experiment station, for ine stance, will be the n single unit of the layout. | Heavy expense, naturally, pre- vents a majority of aircraft manu- facturers from crecting their own | wind tunnels. At present, there are | {about 25 such devices in the United connection with acronautical engin- cering courses offerd by various uni- versities, A majority of these neces- sarily are restricted in their opera- tions by inadequate budgets, because in addition to being expensive 1o build they are costly to eperate, Tests Out Theories | The wind tunnel has made it pos. |sible for the aeronautical engineer safely to test out any theories of de- | greater importance there. are built especially opera many more fascinating and roman- st expensive | States, a majority of them estab- lished in connection with govern- ment experiment stations, or in iHas Been Crucible in Which Most Important Features |07 standardizcd scule correction fac- With Since 1902. sign he may have without going to | the expense of building a full-scale plane and putting it through its | paces in the air, with the possibility of loss of life as well as loss of the plane in case it failed to measure {uP to anticipated performance. Ac- tual flying conditions can be simu- lated in the wind tunnel. Whatever one wants to know about a plane—its flying, crulsing, | stalling or landing speed, its rate of | climb, propeller thrust, wing lift, | resistance, stability, or other char- | acteristic—is deducible trom the re- |sults of & wind tunnel test. That | | these performance aspects are de- | ducibl: from, instead of chown by, | tunnnel test results is due to the {fact that allowance must be made for “scale effect,” the difference in | siz> between the test model and the |actual plane, or part thereof. ! - For instance, the performance of {a model one-twentieth the size of | the actual ship is not obtained simp- ly by multiplying thé model's per- | formance by 20. There are correc- tion factors to be applied, but they have been fairly definitely estab- |lished and are known to the tunnel loperator. With this knowledge, | “scaling-up” the tunnel model's | performance is not difficult, at |least, to the technician. The process of preparing for a |tunnel test is one requiring the | highest accuracy. Models made for | tunnel tests must be absolute repro- | ductions of the full scale plane, that | has been designed. For every curve in the shape of the full-sized ma- chine, regarless of how insignificant it may seem superficlally, there !must be an identical curve in the 1model. In this respect, it makes no difference whether the product to he tunnel tested is a complete plane, a wing, propeller, engine, or some | other feature. If it is not an exact | duplicate in form, full-scale flight will not be approximated in the test. 'he materials of which the models e made, however, need not be dentical with those of the full-sized | ship. involving actual planes or parts, the mind tunnel is especially valuable as an agency of research in the |more abstract phases of aviation, such as studies in the calibration of peed indicators, dirigible shapes, slotted wings and mony other feat- eres. ‘Wing Radiator One of the recent important tests | of the latter character involved the wing-radiator which is used on sev- eral army pursuit ships powered with water-cooled engines, This test made at McCook Iield, now desert- ¢d but the scene of many of the ar- my's splendid contributions to avia- wment. When the radiator was tested in actual service, it was found that heat dissipation was much less than when used in the tunnel. rther tunnel tests revealed that, {in actual flight, air collected in the cooling system, limiting water cir- | Yellow | Cab Not Ordinary Cab Service | Getting to your destination is one consid- | eration when you hire a taxicah. of is HOW you get The “HOW” of YELLOW CAB service accounts in large part for its popularity | in this city.
