This book was released on 1974 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews and evaluates current practices for experimentally determining airplane center of gravity, moments of inertia, and products of inertia. The techniques discussed are applicable to bodies other than airplanes. In pitching- and rolling-moment-of-inertia investigations with the airplane mounted on and pivoted about knife edges, the non-linear spring moments that occur at large amplitudes of oscillation can be eliminated by using the proper spring configuration. The single-point suspension double-pendulum technique for obtaining yawing moments of inertia, products of inertia, and the inclination of the principal axis provides accurate results from yaw-mode oscillation data, provided that the sway-mode effects are minimized by proper suspension rig design. Rocking-mode effects in the data can be isolated. The conduct of the experiments, as well as the test setup used, is a major factor in obtaining accurate results.

Download or read book A Method for Calculating the Subsonic Steady state Loading on an Airplane with a Wing of Arbitrary Plan Form and Stiffness written by W. L. Gray and published by . This book was released on 1953 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method for computing the steady-state span load distribution on an elastic airplane wing for specified airplane weights and load factors is given. The method is based on a modification of the Weissinger L-method and applies at subcritical Mach numbers. It includes the effects of external stores and fuselage on the spanwise loading. Modifications are outlined for treating tail-boom and tailless airplane configurations and for calculating the divergence dynamic pressure of a swept wing with a large external store. A method is also outlined for reducing wind-tunnel data to obtain effective aerodynamic coefficients which are free of model flexibility effects. The effects of Mach number can readily be evaluated from the aerodynamic coefficients thus obtained.
