The Mechanism of Atomization Accompanying Solid Injection
This is a 1933 NASA technical report on how fuel atomizes when injected as a solid stream, issued through the NACA technical reports series for engineers and researchers. The pictures are grainy, high-contrast photographs of spray and jet fragmentation, with dark backgrounds and bright plume edges, and a designer might take their rhythmic repeated forms and sharp light-dark rhythm as visual texture. The sheet with six small photographs shows fine linear streaks of fuel fracture against a pale ground.
