This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 29 (thesis year 1984) a total of 12,637 theses titles from 23 Canadian and 202 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 29 reports theses submitted in 1984, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer program, the Propeller Nacelle Aerodynamic Performance Prediction Analysis (PANPER), was developed for the prediction and analysis of the performance and airflow of propeller-nacelle configurations operating over a forward speed range inclusive of high speed flight typical of recent propfan designs. A propeller lifting line, wake program was combined with a compressible, viscous center body interaction program, originally developed for diffusers, to compute the propeller-nacelle flow field, blade loading distribution, propeller performance, and the nacelle forebody pressure and viscous drag distributions. The computer analysis is applicable to single and coaxial counterrotating propellers. The blade geometries can include spanwise variations in sweep, droop, taper, thickness, and airfoil section type. In the coaxial mode of operation the analysis can treat both equal and unequal blade number and rotational speeds on the propeller disks. The nacelle portion of the analysis can treat both free air and tunnel wall configurations including wall bleed. The analysis was applied to many different sets of flight conditions using selected aerodynamic modeling options. The influence of different propeller nacelle-tunnel wall configurations was studied. Comparisons with available test data for both single and coaxial propeller configurations are presented along with a discussion of the results. Egolf, T.

This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational analysis of two 1911 Wright brothers 'Bent End' wooden propeller reproductions have been performed and compared with experimental test results from the Langley Full Scale Wind Tunnel. The purpose of the analysis was to check the consistency of the experimental results and to validate the reliability of the tests. This report is one part of the project on the propeller performance research of the Wright 'Bent End' propellers, intend to document the Wright brothers' pioneering propeller design contributions. Two computer codes were used in the computational predictions. The FLO-MG Navier-Stokes code is a CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code based on the Navier-Stokes Equations. It is mainly used to compute the lift coefficient and the drag coefficient at specified angles of attack at different radii. Those calculated data are the intermediate results of the computation and a part of the necessary input for the Propeller Design Analysis Code (based on Adkins and Libeck method), which is a propeller design code used to compute the propeller thrust coefficient, the propeller power coefficient and the propeller propulsive efficiency.Wang, Xiang-Yu and Ash, Robert L. and Bobbitt, Percy J. and Prior, Edwin (Technical Monitor)Langley Research CenterPROPELLER EFFICIENCY; PROPELLER BLADES; COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS; WIND TUNNEL TESTS; NAVIER-STOKES EQUATION; COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION; APPLICATIONS PROGRAMS (COMPUTERS); LIFT; AERODYNAMIC DRAG

This book was released on 2016 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Validation is the essential process of evaluating the precision and reliability of analytical or computational solutions. In this dissertation, a series of comprehensive propeller wind tunnel tests were designed for validation of propeller design and analysis techniques. This work focused primarily on small propellers operating at lower Reynolds numbers in the range of 90,000 to 120,000, which is particularly helpful for unmanned aerial vehicle applications. Extensive propeller and experimental apparatus geometries along with test section spatial dimensionality are described. An open-source computer-aided design (CAD) method was used to create the propeller blades, nacelle, and spinner surface outlines, aiming for easy reproduction. Two different propeller designs were tested: a simple propeller with a constant pitch-to-diameter ratio, chord length, and thickness; and a complex propeller with a pitch-to-diameter ratio and chord length as a function of blade radius. Both propellers with a variable pitch of five degrees increment were tested at several angle settings. Critical test section flow field and geometry information that can be used as boundary conditions are also presented in this study. In addition to classical propeller performance plots of thrust and torque coefficients and efficiency against the advance ratio, nacelle surface pressure distribution in terms of coefficients and propeller wake survey results are provided. Two different wind tunnels were utilized to evaluate the experimental and facility bias. Known errors, uncertainties, and instrumental accuracies are quantified and presented here.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental study was performed to design and analyze a "pusher" propeller for use by a small, expendable, autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) whose mission was to descend from 30,000 feet to sea level at an approximately constant descent rate over a 3-hour mission duration. The entire propeller design process, from airfoil selection to final part generation in the computer-aided drafting program SolidWorks is described. QMIL and QPROP were the programs of choice for producing a propeller design focused on yielding minimum induced losses for optimal aerodynamic efficiency given a conservative aerodynamic design point. The TA22 airfoil defined the propeller cross section and NEU-012-030-4000 DC brushless motor was selected to power the propeller. The initial propeller design was modified to comply with size constraints set by the mission. Wind tunnel tests were conducted to determine the effect of fuselage blanketing on propeller performance. Of particular interest was comparing the power required to propel the aircraft at a given airspeed for a configuration in which the propeller was mounted behind the fuselage, and one in which the propeller was not obstructed by an upstream object and instead isolated in the incoming airstream. It was empirically found that fuselage blanketing had a significantly detrimental impact on each of the 4 propellers used in testing. It was therefore recommended that the hub section of the propeller be redesigned to mitigate drag and propulsive losses resulting from reduced momentum in the blanketed region of the propeller. This recommendation was applied to the included propeller design and propeller betas in the hub region were reduced using qualitative methods.
