Summary:

Tests have been conducted in the variable density wind tunnel on two airship models, known as the "N.P.L. Standardization Models, Long and Short." The resistance or shape coefficients were determined for each model through a range of Reynolds numbers from 110,000 to 5,000,000. Comparison is made with previous tests on three models and other airship models.
