This book was released on 1999 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variable-porosity suction glove has been flown on the F-16XL-2 aircraft to demonstrate the feasibility of this technology for the proposed High-Speed Civil Transport (HSCT). Boundary-layer transition data have been obtained on the titanium glove primarily at Mach 2.0 and altitudes of 53,000-55,000 ft. The objectives of this supersonic laminar flow control flight experiment have been to achieve 50- to 60-percent-chord laminar flow on a highly swept wing at supersonic speeds and to provide data to validate codes and suction design. The most successful laminar flow results have not been obtained at the glove design point (Mach 1.9 at an altitude of 50,000 ft). At Mach 2.0 and an altitude of 53,000 ft, which corresponds to a Reynolds number of 22.7 multiplied by 10[factor 6], optimum suction levels have allowed long runs of a minimum of 46-percent-chord laminar flow to be achieved. This paper discusses research variables that directly impact the ability to obtain laminar flow and techniques to correct for these variables.

Download or read book Flight Wind Tunnel and Computational Fluid Dynamics Comparison for Cranked Arrow Wing F 16XL 1 at Subsonic and Transonic Speeds written by John E. Lamar and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geometrical, flight, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and wind-tunnel studies for the F-16XL-1 airplane are summarized over a wide range of test conditions. Details are as follows: (1) For geometry, the upper surface of the airplane and the numerical surface description compare reasonably well. (2) For flight, CFD, and wind-tunnel surface pressures, the comparisons are generally good at low angles of attack at both subsonic and transonic speeds; however, local differences are present. In addition, the shock location at transonic speeds from wind-tunnel presure contours is near the aileron hinge line and generally is in correlative agreement with flight results.

This book was released on 1964 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At subsonic speeds, full length laminar flow and low drags were obtained up to high length Reynolds numbers on a thin straight, on a swept laminar suction wing and on a suction body of revolution. Moderately increased suction rates in the most critical region of a straight and a swept laminar suction wing enabled full chord laminar flow in the presence of external sound. Theoretical investigatiions are concerned with nonlinear boundary layer oscillations and stability investigations (assuming small disturbances) of a supersonic laminar boundary layer on a flat plate up to high supersonic speeds as well as on a highly swept supersonic low drag suction wing of low wave drag. On a supersonic flat laminar suction plate with and without weak incident shock waves, extensive laminar flow and low equivalent drags were obtained at M = 3 up to length Reynolds numbers of 26 x 1000000. Further supersonic low drag suction experiments on a suction body of revolution, on a 36 degree supersonic yawing wing, as well as on a 72 degree supersonic yawing wing (swept behind the Mach cone) of low wave drag, are described. The latter wing showed full chord laminar flow with a subsonic type pressure distribution at M = 2 and R sub C approximately equal to 1000000. (Author).
