This book was released on 1968 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wind-tunnel test section with closed upper wall, slotted side walls, and open lower boundary was found theoretically to produce zero tunnel-boundary lift interference on a small wing with horizontal wake mounted at the center of the test section. For this test section the variation of the interference with angle of the vortex wake behind a high-lift-coefficient model was not large. Because of the small slot widths required for zero interference and of the effects of boundary layer, the theory is regarded as unreliable for predicting the slot widths required; however, the variation of the interference with the slot width for widths somewhat greater than those needed for zero interference was found to be small. The interference in the region likely to be occupied by the tall of a model was investigated in some detail and was found to change with slot width and with wake angle more strongly than did the interference at the lifting element. A limited investigation of the lift interference in a test section with closed upper wall and slotted side and lower boundaries was made to obtain the theoretically indicated slot width required for zero lift interference at a center-mounted wing with the wake horizontal.

Download or read book Analytical Study of Ventilated Wind Tunnel Boundary Interference on V STOL Models Including Wake Curvature and Decay Effects written by E. M. Kraft and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wind tunnel boundary interference on a V/STOL model is calculated in a rectangular test section with solid vertical walls and ventilated (perforated or slotted) horizontal walls. The interference is found by applying the small perturbation theory of an incompressible fluid to the boundary value problem. The theory uses an image method in addition to Fourier transforms with an equivalent homogeneous boundary condition on the ventilated wall. The mathematical representation of the V/STOL model accounts for the curvature and decay of the wake. The assumption of a constant wake strength produces a paradox in that the maximum value of the interference factors increases as the initial jet velocity decreases. The most significant aspect of the analysis shows that nonlinear cross-flow effects at the tunnel boundary are important in the V/STOL case, and a quasi-linear approximation to these effects is introduced into the solution providing good agreement with experimental data.

This book was released on 1971 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The investigation reported herein is the experimental portion of a unified theoretical and experimental search for a slotted wind tunnel wall configuration with minimal interference for conventional and V/STOL models. It is shown that theory and experiment are in excellent agreement for the classical case provided an appropriate expression is used to relate the wall geometry to the boundary condition. Classical data correction equations are not appropriate for the V/STOL case, however. An additional term, not predicted by theory, is needed to account for changes in the jet wake. Geometric parameters which influence the wall interference quantities are indicated. Wall configurations are shown which will produce interference-free force data to a jet-to-free-stream velocity ratio of 4.5. (Author).

This book was released on 1970 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under sufficiently large wake deflections, the forward portion of the wake is found to flow forward along the floor leading to a vortex pattern which results in Rae's limits (Journal of Aircraft, May-June 1967). Although wind-tunnel data cannot normally be corrected successfully beyond these limits, it may be possible to obtain ground-effect data for conditions more severe than those implied by Rae.

Download or read book Wind Tunnel Interference Factors for High lift Wings in Closed Wind Tunnels written by Robert Glenn Joppa and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A problem associated with the wind tunnel testing of very slow flying aircraft is the correction of observed pitching moments to free air conditions. The most significant effects of such corrections are to be found at moderate downwash angles typical of the landing approach. The wind tunnel walls induce interference velocities at the tail different from those induced at the wing, and these induced velocities also alter the trajectory of the trailing vortex system. The relocated vortex system induces different velocities at the tail from those experienced in free air. The effect of the relocated vortex and the walls is to cause important changes in the measured pitching moments in the wind tunnel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brand-new edition of the classic guide on low-speed wind tunnel testing While great advances in theoretical and computational methods have been made in recent years, low-speed wind tunnel testing remains essential for obtaining the full range of data needed to guide detailed design decisions for many practical engineering problems. This long-awaited Third Edition of William H. Rae, Jr.'s landmark reference brings together essential information on all aspects of low-speed wind tunnel design, analysis, testing, and instrumentation in one easy-to-use resource. Written by authors who are among the most respected wind tunnel engineers in the world, this edition has been updated to address current topics and applications, and includes coverage of digital electronics, new instrumentation, video and photographic methods, pressure-sensitive paint, and liquid crystal-based measurement methods. The book is organized for quick access to topics of interest, and examines basic test techniques and objectives of modeling and testing aircraft designs in low-speed wind tunnels, as well as applications to fluid motion analysis, automobiles, marine vessels, buildings, bridges, and other structures subject to wind loading. Supplemented with real-world examples throughout, Low-Speed Wind Tunnel Testing, Third Edition is an indispensable resource for aerospace engineering students and professionals, engineers and researchers in the automotive industries, wind tunnel designers, architects, and others who need to get the most from low-speed wind tunnel technology and experiments in their work.
Download or read book Analysis of Post support and Wind tunnel Wall Interference on Flow Field about Subsonic High lift High speed Research Configuration written by Wendy B. Lessard and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study was performed to determine how significant the interference effects of the wind-tunnel model support system and tunnel walls can be for a high-speed configuration during takeoff and landing conditions. A 5-percent scale model of the Technology Concept Airplane was recently tested in the Langley 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel. The model was numerically modeled with and without the support and tunnel walls and compared with experimental data. Detailed analysis of the flow provided additional insight concerning what effects the postsupport and tunnel walls had on the flow field. This study revealed that although the overall forces and moments could be experimentally accounted for, the detailed flow features, such as the surface pressure distributions, could not be accurately simulated without including the post in the computations.
