Download or read book Flow Control Over Swept Sharp Edged Wings at Low and Moderate Angles of Attack written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Active control of fully-separated flow over symmetric sharp-edged wings at high angles of attack is investigated. Experiments were carried out in a low-speed, open circuit wind tunnel, as well as a Mach 0.2, 6'x6' wind tunnel. Angles of attack from 30 to 210 were tested. Low-power input, unsteady excitation was applied to the leading edge of the wings. The actuation was introduced by the periodic oscillation of a 4-percent-chord flap placed on the suction side of the airfoil and facing the sharp edge. We also carried out experiments with pulsing jets and larger models at Reynolds numbers the order of one million. Our results indicate that blowing practically at the leading edge of a sharp airfoil is as effective as oscillating mini-flaps. Pressure measurements over all models show that the control increases the normal force coefficient by up to 40% to 70%. The application of flow control on sharp-edged aircraft wings could lead to improved maneuverability, short take-off and landing, innovative flight controls and weight reduction.

Book excerpt: Wings swept by 30 to 40 degrees with sharp leading edges are today very common on flghter aircraft. There is very little work devoted to the understanding of the aerodynamics of such wings. The problem is that such wings may be able to sustain attached flow, even if their tip vortices are broken down, or stall like two-dimensional wings. The aerodynamics of such wings were studied and investigated experimentally. Pressure distributions and velocity fields were obtained in a wind tunnel and a water tunnel. The effectiveness of leading-edge control of the flow over such wings was explored. Oscillating mini-flaps and pulsed jets along the leading edge were employed. The results indicate that two-D-like vortices are periodically generated and shed. It was also discovered that an underline feature of the flow, a streamwise vortex is periodically activated, penetrating the separated flow, eventually emerging downstream of the trailing edge of the wing. The results indicate that significant increases in tilt can be achieved in the average, by managing the development of streamwise and spanwise vortices. The technique is effective in the range of angles of attack of 10 to 20 degrees, for which the uncontrolled flow is stalled.

Download or read book Aerodynamics for Engineers written by John J. Bertin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 843 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now reissued by Cambridge University Press, this sixth edition covers the fundamentals of aerodynamics using clear explanations and real-world examples. Aerodynamics concept boxes throughout showcase real-world applications, chapter objectives provide readers with a better understanding of the goal of each chapter and highlight the key 'take-home' concepts, and example problems aid understanding of how to apply core concepts. Coverage also includes the importance of aerodynamics to aircraft performance, applications of potential flow theory to aerodynamics, high-lift military airfoils, subsonic compressible transformations, and the distinguishing characteristics of hypersonic flow. Supported online by a solutions manual for instructors, MATLAB® files for example problems, and lecture slides for most chapters, this is an ideal textbook for undergraduates taking introductory courses in aerodynamics, and for graduates taking preparatory courses in aerodynamics before progressing to more advanced study.
Download or read book High Angle of Attack Aerodynamics written by Josef Rom and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aerodynamics of aircraft at high angles of attack is a subject which is being pursued diligently, because the modern agile fighter aircraft and many of the current generation of missiles must perform well at very high incidence, near and beyond stall. However, a comprehensive presentation of the methods and results applicable to the studies of the complex aerodynamics at high angle of attack has not been covered in monographs or textbooks. This book is not the usual textbook in that it goes beyond just presenting the basic theoretical and experimental know-how, since it contains reference material to practical calculation methods and technical and experimental results which can be useful to the practicing aerospace engineers and scientists. It can certainly be used as a text and reference book for graduate courses on subjects related to high angles of attack aerodynamics and for topics related to three-dimensional separation in viscous flow courses. In addition, the book is addressed to the aerodynamicist interested in a comprehensive reference to methods of analysis and computations of high angle of attack flow phenomena and is written for the aerospace scientist and engineer who is familiar with the basic concepts of viscous and inviscid flows and with computational methods used in fluid dynamics.
