Book Influence of Forebody Geometry on Aerodynamic Characteristics and a Design Guide for Defining Departure spin Resistant Forebody Configurations

Download or read book Influence of Forebody Geometry on Aerodynamic Characteristics and a Design Guide for Defining Departure spin Resistant Forebody Configurations written by William Bihrle (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of airplanes and occupants attributable to departures from controlled flight and ensuing spins has been a problem since the earliest days of aviation. These losses have plagued both the military and general aviation communities. The phenomena responsible for such losses take on added significance because, in the past ten years, high angle-of-attack capability in the post-stall region has been shown to significantly enhance the air combat maneuvering effectiveness of fighter airplanes and, therefore, this is not a region to be avoided, but rather exploited, if possible. Fortunately, the aerodynamic characteristics that produce departures and spins have been identified within the past few years through rotary balance tests, which identify an airplane's aerodynamic characteristics in a steady rotational flow environment. It was demonstrated in the Phase I that the high angle-of-attack aerodynamic characteristics are very configuration dependent and that forebody geometry can have a significant influence on these characteristics. In the extreme case, an aircraft's undesirable aerodynamics can be completely attributable to the forebody. In this instance, autorotative yawing and rolling moments, as well as increasing nose-up pitching moments with increasing rotation rate, are realized.

Download or read book Flight Dynamics written by Robert F. Stengel and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 864 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flight Dynamics takes a new approach to the science and mathematics of aircraft flight, unifying principles of aeronautics with contemporary systems analysis. While presenting traditional material that is critical to understanding aircraft motions, it does so in the context of modern computational tools and multivariable methods. Robert Stengel devotes particular attention to models and techniques that are appropriate for analysis, simulation, evaluation of flying qualities, and control system design. He establishes bridges to classical analysis and results, and explores new territory that was treated only inferentially in earlier books. This book combines a highly accessible style of presentation with contents that will appeal to graduate students and to professionals already familiar with basic flight dynamics. Dynamic analysis has changed dramatically in recent decades, with the introduction of powerful personal computers and scientific programming languages. Analysis programs have become so pervasive that it can be assumed that all students and practicing engineers working on aircraft flight dynamics have access to them. Therefore, this book presents the principles, derivations, and equations of flight dynamics with frequent reference to MATLAB functions and examples. By using common notation and not assuming a strong background in aeronautics, Flight Dynamics will engage a wide variety of readers. Introductions to aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, flying qualities, flight control, and the atmospheric and gravitational environment accompany the development of the aircraft's dynamic equations.

Book Reynolds Number Effects at High Angles of Attack

Download or read book Reynolds Number Effects at High Angles of Attack written by David F. Fisher and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lessons learned from comparision between ground-based tests and flight measurements for the high-angle-of-attack programs on the F-18 High Alpha Research Vehicle (HARV), the X-29 forward-swept wing aircraft, and the X-31 enhanced fighter maneuverability aircraft are presented. On all three vehicles, Reynolds number effects were evident on the forebodies at high angles of attack. The correlation between flight and wind tunnel forebody pressure distributions for the F-18 HARV were improved by using twin longitudinal grit strips on the forebody of the wind-tunnel model. Pressure distributions obtained on the X-29 wind-tunnel model at flight Reynolds numbers showed excellent correlation with the flight data up to [alpha]=50 deg. Above [alpha]=50 deg. the pressure distributions for both flight and wind tunnel became asymmetric and showed poorer agreement, possibly because of the different surface finish of the model and aircraft. The detrimental effect of a very sharp nose apex was demonstrated on the X-31 aircraft. Grit strips on the forebody of the X-31 reduced the randomness but increased the magnitude of the asymmetry. Nose strakes were required to reduce the forebody yawing moment asymmetries and the grit strips on the flight test noseboom improved the aircraft.
