Download or read book A Wind Tunnel Free flight Data reduction Program for Either Spinning Or Non Spinning Models Utilizing Data from a Single Plane written by Charles Eugene Knadler and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes PLANAR, a data-reduction program for wind tunnel free-flight tests which utilizes data from a single plane. The program calculates moment, force and, in the case of a spinning model, Magnus coefficients. The program is written for an IBM 7090 computer operating under the IBSYS monitor. The mathematical formulation of the problem and the computer program are presented. The program description includes a FORTRAN listing and instructions for its use. (Author).

Download or read book Aeroballistic Evaluation and Computer Stability Analysis of the U S Navy 20 millimeter General Purpose Projectile written by Frank J. Regan and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents the results of ballistics range and wind-tunnel measurements of the static force and moment and the pitch-damping, roll-damping and Magnus moments for a General Purpose 20-Millimeter Projectile. Data are presented for a Smooth and Basic configuration. These aerodynamic data are used in a special digital computer program to rapidly assess the stability of the projectiles over various mission profiles. The normal-force and pitching-moment derivatives are evaluated, theoretically, by Wood's method and compared with the measurements.

This book was released on 1968 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents a method for determining the parameters of ordinary differential equations, where it is not necessary that the equation have a closed-form solution. DIFRED, a computer data-reduction program utilizing the method, is also described. The program is written for an IBM 7090 computer operating under the IBSYS monitor. The mathematical formulation of the method is presented, and the FORTRAN listing of DIFRED and instructions for its use are included. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report reviews both theoretical and experimental investigations of the Magnus effect on arbitrary bodies of revolution. The main emphasis is on spinning projectiles at angle of attack, both with and without fins. Flow visualization measurements are used to assess the accuracy of the existing theories. Laminar, turbulent, and mixed boundary layers are considered. (Author).

Download or read book An Analytic Investigation of Accuracy Requirements for Onboard Instrumentation and Film Data for Dynamically Scaled Wind Tunnel Drop Models written by K. S. Keen and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analytic study was conducted to evaluate anticipated ranges and required accuracies for onboard linear acceleration and angular rate (or acceleration) measurement equipment to be mounted within dynamically scaled wind tunnel drop models. Generic simulations of the separation motion of a tumbling fuel tank both at full scale and at 1/15th wind tunnel model scale were generated using an analytic trajectory simulation program coupled with a prescribed aerodynamic database. The simulations provide a basis for sizing the required instrumentation for proof of concept demonstrations of telemetry techniques in the wind tunnel. The simulations were also used as test cases to demonstrate extraction of aerodynamic information from drop data positions and orientations as read from film records via an inverse solution of the store equations of motion. The studies also aid identification and evaluation of inaccuracies associated with the basic dynamic scaling laws and standard film based data reduction techniques.
