This book was released on 1974 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the winter operations, from 1967 to 1971, of Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) research at Wallops Island, Virginia, the Weater Radar Branch of Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories observed eighteen cases of significant turbulence, defined as cases of light-to-moderate or moderate intensity. The report presents the meteorological data for each of these cases, consisting of synoptic sea level and upper air charts and rawinsonde data, observations of clear air echoes with powerful radars, and aircraft data which are used to indicate the present location and intensity of the turbulence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clear air turbulence encounters can occur unexpectedly without any visual evidence or warning. As operations of higher altitude aircraft increase, the phenomenon is encountered more often. Clear air turbulence is defined as 'all turbulence in the free atmosphere of interest in aerospace operations that is not in or adjacent to visible convective activity (this includes turbulence found in cirrus clouds not in or adjacent to visible convective activity).' This bibliography consists of 578 references to technical reports, articles in periodicals, and books published during the past 17 years. References about other forms of turbulence such as that occurring with storms and airplane wake vortices are not included. (Author).

Download or read book Air Turbulence and its Methods of Detection written by Leonardo Di G. Sigalotti and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-02-24 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a concise guide dealing with the subject of air turbulence and its methods of detection with particular applications to aviation turbulence. It begins with a general description of turbulence and provides a background into the nature and causes of atmospheric turbulence that affect aircraft motion, giving updates on the state-of-the-art research on clear air turbulence (CAT). Important physical processes leading to the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, a primary producer of CAT, are also explained. The several categories of CAT along with its impact on commercial aviation are also presented in a separate chapter, with particular emphasis on the structural damages to planes and injuries. The central theme of the book deals with both the earlier and the latest CAT detecting methods and techniques for remote and in situ sensing and forecasting. A concise presentation of new technologies for reducing aviation weather-related accidents is also offered. A chapter on the weather accident prevention project of the NASA aviation safety program is also included. Additionally, the book ends with a full description of the recent research activities on CAT and future challenges in turbulence detection, prediction and avoidance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The program was initiated to explore the possibility that characteristic optical radar echoes might actually be correlated with clear air turbulence. A light twin engine airplane was equipped with a laser radar and ancillary equipment for monitoring acceleration, temperature variations, and relevant meteorlogical data. The design of this equipment and the development of the flight programs was predicated on theoretical considerations of optical scattering from particulate matter. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the detection and display of weather avoidance information to commercial airline, business aircraft, and general aviation aircraft cockpits from the perspective of the professional pilot. A flight campaign was conducted over a period of three years. Convective weather detection was attempted utilizing an experimental airborne weather radar installed on NASA's Airborne Research Integrated Experiments Systems (ARIES) Boeing 757. Additionally ground-based Next Generation Radar (NEXRAD) information and textual data was linked to the aircraft for correlation. It was determined after encountering several heavy turbulence events that radar detection and conventional displays alone were inadequate to provide the types of data needed by the professional flight crew in order to make informed decisions concerning weather avoidance. The NASA King Air B200 and Cessna 206 were also used to evaluate the human factors issues concerning cockpit displays for these classes of aircraft, which are also flown by some professional pilots. In addition to convective weather avoidance associated with thunderstorms or frontal activity, the study also explored clear air turbulence detection techniques. The detection of these events and the communication of this information to other aircraft in an automated Pilot Report format are being used to display danger areas to other pilots.
