This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer code for calculating flow about a circulation control airfoil within a wind tunnel test section has been developed. This code is being validated for eventual use as an aid to design such airfoils. The concept of code validation being used is explained. The initial stages of the process have been accomplished. The present code has been applied to a low-subsonic, 2-D flow about a circulation control airfoil for which extensive data exist. Two basic turbulence models and variants thereof have been successfully introduced into the algorithm, the Baldwin-Lomax algebraic and the Jones-Launder two-equation models of turbulence. The variants include adding a history of the jet development for the algebraic model and adding streamwise curvature effects for both models. Numerical difficulties and difficulties in the validation process are discussed. Turbulence model and code improvements to proceed with the validation process are also discussed. Viegas, J.

This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on using and implementing Circulation Control (CC) - an active flow control method used to produce increased lift over the traditionally used systems, like flaps, slats, etc. - to design a new type of fixed-wing unmanned aircraft that are endowed with improved aerodynamic efficiency, enhanced endurance, increased useful payload (fuel capacity, battery cells, on-board sensors) during cruise flight, delayed stall, and reduced runway during takeoff and landing. It presents the foundations of a step-by-step comprehensive methodology from design to implementation and experimental testing of Coandǎ based Circulation Control Wings (CCWs) and CC system, both integral components of the new type of aircraft, called Unmanned Circulation Control Air Vehicle. The methodology is composed of seven coupled phases: theoretical and mathematical analysis, design, simulation, 3-D printing/prototyping, wind tunnel testing, wing implementation and integration, and flight testing. The theoretical analysis focuses on understanding the physics of the flow and on defining the design parameters of the geometry restrictions of the wing and the plenum. The design phase centers on: designs of Coandǎ surfaces based on wing geometry specifications; designing and modifying airfoils from well-known ones (NACA series, Clark-Y, etc.); plenum designs for flow uniformity; dual radius flap designs to delay flow separation and reduce cruise drag. The simulation phase focuses on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis and simulations, and on calculating lift and drag coefficients of the designed CCWs in a simulation environment. 3-D printing and prototyping focuses on the actual construction of the CCWs. Wind tunnel testing centers on experimental studies in a laboratory environment. One step before flight testing is implementation of the qualified CCW and integration on the UAV platform, along with the CC system. Flight testing is the final phase, where design validation is performed. This book is the first of its kind, and it is suitable for students and researchers interested in the design and development of CCWs for small-scale aircraft. Background knowledge on fundamental Aerodynamics is required.

This book was released on 2016-06-25 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers selected contributions presented at the Enzo Levi and XX Annual Meeting of the Fluid Dynamic Division of the Mexican Physical Society in 2014. The individual papers explore recent advances in experimental and theoretical fluid dynamics and are suitable for use in both teaching and research. The fluid dynamics applications covered include multiphase flows, convection, diffusion, heat transfer, rheology, granular materials, viscous flows, porous media flows, geophysics and astrophysics. The contributions, some of which are introductory and avoid the use of complicated mathematics, are suitable for fourth-year undergraduate and graduate students. Accordingly, the book is of immense benefit to these students, as well as to scientists in the fields of physics, chemistry and engineering with an interest in fluid dynamics from experimental and theoretical points of view.

Book excerpt: Current projections for future aircraft concepts call for stringent requirements on high-lift and low cruise-drag. The purpose of this study is to examine the use of circulation control, through trailing edge blowing, to meet both requirements. This study was conducted in two stages: (i) validation of computational fluid dynamic procedures on a general aviation circulation control airfoil and (ii) a study of an adaptive circulation control airfoil for controlling lift coefficients in the low-drag range. In an effort to validate computational fluid dynamics procedures for calculating flows around circulation control airfoils, the commercial flow solver FLUENT was utilized to study the flow around a general aviation circulation control airfoil. The results were compared to experimental and computational fluid dynamics results conducted at the NASA Langley Research Center. This effort was conducted in three stages: (i) a comparison of the results for free-air conditions to those from previously conducted experiments, (ii) a study of wind-tunnel wall effects, and (iii) a study of the stagnation-point behavior. In general, the trends in the results from the current work agreed well with those from experiments, some differences in magnitude were present between computations and experiments. For the cases examined, FLUENT computations showed no noticeable effect on the results due to the presence of wind-tunnel walls. The study also showed that the leading-edge stagnation point moves in a systematic manner with changes to the jet blowing coefficient and angle of attack, indicating that this location can be sensed for use in closed-loop control of such airfoil flows. The focus of the second part of the study was to examine the use of adaptive circulation control on a natural laminar flow airfoil for controlling the lift coefficient of the low-drag range. In this effort, adaptive circulation control was achieved through blowing over a small mechanical flap that can be deflec.
