Download or read book Investigation of the Effects of Gusts on V STOL Craft in Transition and Hover written by Grant Brandford Skelton and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concern in the work reported is the development of statistical models for the gust environment in the earth's boundary layer for use in determining the gust response characteristics of V/STOL aircraft. A general gust model based upon published gust data was developed, and analyses of V/STOL responses with that model were conducted to determine the gust descriptors significant to V/STOL performance. An interim gust model embodying the significant descriptors was then developed for use in V/STOL gust analyses. Suggestions for meteorological experiments to measure the significant descriptors are made. The significant gust descriptors determined from the analyses are the diagonal terms of the gust covariance tensor, gust probability distributions, mean wind probability distributions, and the dependencies of these statistics on thermal stability, surface roughness, and altitude. Less critical descriptors include the off-diagonal components in the gust covariance tensor and the space-time interplay in that tensor. The significant gusts seen by the aircraft are head-on and vertical gusts on the wings; head-on and vertical gust shears across the wings; head-on, side, and vertical gusts on the tail; and head-on and side gusts on the fuselage. Mean airspeed and sideslip angle are important parameters in V/STOL gust responses. The wing-to-tail transport delay of the gusts in forward flight also has a significant effect. V/STOL gust responses at low airspeeds are generally small due to the low dynamic pressures, and the responses are decidedly nonlinear except at low gust amplitudes.

Download or read book Use of Climatology to Predict Maximum Wintertime Wind Speeds at the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Station written by Lisa K. Coleman and published by . This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis uses statistical analysis to forecast the probability of meeting or exceeding the maximum allowable wind speeds for each of the launch pads at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) and Cape Canaveral Air Station (CCAS). Wind data were collected from the Weather Information Network Display System (WINDS), a collection of 47 meteorological towers located throughout KSC and CCAS, over a period of five winters. A Fortran program was written to calculate conditional probabilities of meeting or exceeding a given threshold speed during eight consecutive one-hour periods, using the current wind direction and peak wind speed as inputs. Forecast probabilities were displayed in a table according to time period and wind direction. Accuracy was measured by constructing contingency tables and calculating various measures of accuracy. Results were tested for significance by calculating p-values for the chi-square test. This method was found to have very little skill in forecasting maximum wind speeds. It is not recommended for operational use.
