Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report evaluates the feasibility and desirability of a fluidic Automatic Flight Control System. The study is carried out in four parts: (1) a description of the basic flight control system and fluidic components; (2) the definition and requirements for an automatic flight control; (3) a proposed fluidic system; and (4) an evaluation of the proposed system with a comparison with an existing Automatic Flight Control System. The Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) to be implemented consists of open loop damping (OLD) systems, stability augmentation systems (SAS) and an autopilot. Each mode of control - pitch, yaw, roll, and translation - is similar in function. The portion of the complete AFCS chosen for implementation is the pitch axis of a fly-by-wire system. For the Fluidic system under consideration in this report, a fluid signal transmission system is the equivalent of the conventional fly-by-wire system. The proposed fluidic control has hydraulic OLD and SAS, and a pneumatic autopilot. These fluids were chosen primarily for compatibility with the power drive and response, respectively. The reliability comparison, which for the fluidic components was based on estimated failure rates, shows better performance for the fluidic system.

Book excerpt: Since its discovery at Harry Diamond Lab. in 1959, fluidics has gradually been developed into a viable technology. This report describes fluidic components and systems now in use or ready for use in many applications. The fluidic technology provides sensing, computing, and controlling functions with fluid power through interaction of fluid streams. Since fluidics can perform these functions without mechanical moving parts that will wear out, it has the advantages of simplicity and reliability. Other advantages are the low cost, environmental insensitivity, and safety of fluidic systems. Commercial applications of fluidics in the aerospace industry, include medicine, and personal-use items. The first aerospace application in production in the United States was for the thrust-reverser control for a DC-10 airplane. In industry, fluidics has been applied to air-conditioning controls, machine controls, process controls, and production-line controls. One of the first commercial applications of fluidics was for life-support medical equipment. For military use, fluidics has been successfully applied to a fluidic generator to convert pneumatic energy into electrical energy, a fluidic stability augmentation system for helicopters, and a pressure-regulating system for aircraft. Under development are rate sensing circuits for roll rate control of cannon-launched guided projectiles and missiles, and a fluidic capillary pyrometer for continuous temperature measurements in high-temperature process control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progress in Aeronautical Sciences, Volume 10 provides information pertinent to the development in aeronautical sciences. This book discusses a variety of topics, including thermoelasticity, turbulent boundary, as well as the manufacturing methods, reliability, problem areas, and applications under development in fluidic systems. Organized into six chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the theoretical problems of elasticity. This text then discusses the state of research in the complex fields of turbulent boundary layers with fluid injections. Other chapters consider as well the problems of supersonic flow past wings and bodies. This book discusses as well the flow in hypersonic wakes in ionized gases. The reader is also introduced to the possible applications of the compressible turbulent boundary layer with fluid injection. The final chapter discusses the components used in fluidic systems, which are described with emphasis on their general system of operation and general properties. This book is a valuable resource for engineers.
