Book Vortex wakes of Aircrafts

Download or read book Vortex wakes of Aircrafts written by A.S. Ginevsky and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-07-07 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigation of vortex wakes behind various aircraft, especially behind wide bodied and heavy cargo ones, is of both scientific and practical in terest. The vortex wakes shed from the wing’s trailing edge are long lived and attenuate only atdistances of10–12kmbehindthe wake generating aircraft. The encounter of other aircraft with the vortex wake of a heavy aircraft is open to catastrophic hazards. For example, air refueling is adangerous operationpartly due to thepossibility of the receiver aircraft’s encountering the trailing wake of the tanker aircraft. It is very important to know the behavior of vortex wakes of aircraft during theirtakeoff andlanding operations whenthe wakes canpropagate over the airport’s ground surface and be a serious hazard to other depart ing or arriving aircraft. This knowledge can help in enhancing safety of aircraft’s movements in the terminal areas of congested airports where the threat of vortex encounters limits passenger throughput. Theoreticalinvestigations of aircraft vortex wakes arebeingintensively performedinthe major aviationnations.Usedforthispurpose are various methods for mathematical modeling of turbulent flows: direct numerical simulation based on the Navier–Stokes equations, large eddy simulation using the Navier–Stokes equations in combination with subrigid scale modeling, simulation based on the Reynolds equations closed with a differential turbulence model. These approaches are widely used in works of Russian and other countries’ scientists. It should be emphasized that the experiments in wind tunnels and studies of natural vortex wakes behind heavy and light aircraft in flight experiments are equally important.

Book Viscous Effects on a Vortex Wake in Ground Effect

Download or read book Viscous Effects on a Vortex Wake in Ground Effect written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-15 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wake vortex trajectories and strengths are altered radically by interactions with the ground plane. Prediction of vortex strength and location is especially important in the vicinity of airports. Simple potential flow methods have been found to yield reasonable estimates of vortex descent rates in an otherwise quiescent ambient background, but those techniques cannot be adjusted for more realistic ambient conditions and they fail to provide satisfactory estimates of ground-coupled behavior. The authors have been involved in a systematic study concerned with including viscous effects in a wake-vortex system which is near the ground plane. The study has employed numerical solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations, as well as perturbation techniques to study ground coupling with a descending vortex pair. Results of a two-dimensional, unsteady numerical-theoretical study are presented in this paper. A time-based perturbation procedure has been developed which permits the use of analytical solutions to an inner and outer flow domain for the initial flow field. Predictions have been compared with previously reported laminar experimental results. In addition, the influence of stratification and turbulence on vortex behavior near the ground plane has been studied. Zheng, Z. and Ash, Robert L. Unspecified Center NAG1-987...

Book The Pressure Field of a Vortex Wake in Ground Effect

Download or read book The Pressure Field of a Vortex Wake in Ground Effect written by Clinton E. Brown and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ground pressures under a descending pair of vortices, such as might be generated by aircraft either landing or taking off are computed. It is found that as the vortices first approach the ground, only positive pressures are produced; however as the descent continues the high velocity field of the vortices makes itself apparent in dips to sub-atmospheric pressure which lie closely beneath the vortex center. Nevertheless, a substantial positive pressure hill precedes the path of the vortex as it moves laterally in the 'ground effect'. The level of pressures produced is dependent only on the flight speed, lift coefficient and aspect ratio while the length scale of the pressure distribution is proportional to the span. These results may be useful in the development of systems to monitor multiple aircraft take-off and/or landing operations.

Book Investigation of Vortex Wake Stability Near the Ground

Download or read book Investigation of Vortex Wake Stability Near the Ground written by I. H. Tombach and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vortex wakes exist in a complicated environment near the ground at airports. Under many situations, factors combine to move a wake sufficiently far from the runway approach corridor that it does not constitute a hazard to following aircraft. Situations exist, however, where a wake can possibly linger at high strength long enough to present operational problems. The sinuous mutual induction instability of a vortex pair has been investigated theoretically and experimentally in atmospheric conditions which prevail near the ground, thereby extending previous work of Crow and Bate for the same instability aloft. Two theoretical models were developed -- one for a vortex pair in the constant stress layer of the atmospheric boundary layer, and the second for a vortex interacting with its image when in ground effect.
