Further investigation of NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 two-blade propeller at high forward speeds

Report presenting tests of an NACA 4-(5)(08)-03 two-blade propeller in the 8-foot high-speed tunnel for blade angles of 45 and 60 degrees extending the Mach number range from that of previous tests of the propeller up to Mach number 0.913. When the forward speed was increased from a low value to a forward Mach number of 0.90, the loss in peak efficiency was found to be not more than 47 percent.
