Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report concerns the making and evaluation of a towing test of a seaplane float system. Some of the topics considered are: 1) the influence of the wing cell and power plant on the take-off performance; 2) the determination of the resistance curve for the take-off free to trim; 3) the resistance curves with elevator control (at fixed trims); 4) take-off time and take-off run.
Download or read book General Aviation Aircraft Design written by Snorri Gudmundsson and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2021-10-31 with total page 1146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General Aviation Aircraft Design, Second Edition, continues to be the engineer's best source for answers to realistic aircraft design questions. The book has been expanded to provide design guidance for additional classes of aircraft, including seaplanes, biplanes, UAS, high-speed business jets, and electric airplanes. In addition to conventional powerplants, design guidance for battery systems, electric motors, and complete electric powertrains is offered. The second edition contains new chapters: - Thrust Modeling for Gas Turbines - Longitudinal Stability and Control - Lateral and Directional Stability and Control These new chapters offer multiple practical methods to simplify the estimation of stability derivatives and introduce hinge moments and basic control system design. Furthermore, all chapters have been reorganized and feature updated material with additional analysis methods. This edition also provides an introduction to design optimization using a wing optimization as an example for the beginner. Written by an engineer with more than 25 years of design experience, professional engineers, aircraft designers, aerodynamicists, structural analysts, performance analysts, researchers, and aerospace engineering students will value the book as the classic go-to for aircraft design. - The printed book is now in color, with 1011 figures and illustrations! - Presents the most common methods for conceptual aircraft design - Clear presentation splits text into shaded regions, separating engineering topics from mathematical derivations and examples - Design topics range from the "new" 14 CFR Part 23 to analysis of ducted fans. All chapters feature updated material with additional analysis methods. Many chapters have been reorganized for further help. Introduction to design optimization is provided using a wing optimization as an example for the beginner - Three new chapters are offered, two of which focus on stability and control. These offer multiple practical methods to simplify the estimation of stability derivatives. The chapters introduce hinge moments and basic control system design - Real-world examples using aircraft such as the Cirrus SR-22 and Learjet 45
Download or read book Seaplanes written by Erlend Vaage and published by Erlend Vaage. This book was released on 2024-07-03 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the fun things one can do in flying, seaplane flying is high on most pilots’ favourite lists! From taking off from a sandy beach in the summer heat, avoiding all the traffic on the road and then landing up in the somewhat cooler mountainous regions for lunch, seaplane flying gives us amazing opportunities and freedoms. Seaplane flying never gets boring. The water is never the same as the last time you landed there. Changes in wind direction, wind speed, wave heights, currents, lighting conditions, and boat traffic are some of the factors that are constantly changing and require vigilance from a seaplane pilot. This book is written from a practical (and Europeean) point of view, and most of it is taken from the recommendations of experienced seaplane pilots under specific conditions. The book was originally written in Norwegian in 1977 and 1983 by Reinert C. Barratt and Tor B. Kirkvaag. It has since been revised in 1995 by Tor B. Kirkvaag and Arnfinn Halland and then revised in 2002, 2015, and 2022 by Erlend Vaage. Translated to English in 2024 by Erlend Vaage.

Download or read book General Aviation Aircraft Design written by Snorri Gudmundsson and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 1058 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find the right answer the first time with this useful handbook of preliminary aircraft design. Written by an engineer with close to 20 years of design experience, General Aviation Aircraft Design: Applied Methods and Procedures provides the practicing engineer with a versatile handbook that serves as the first source for finding answers to realistic aircraft design questions. The book is structured in an "equation/derivation/solved example" format for easy access to content. Readers will find it a valuable guide to topics such as sizing of horizontal and vertical tails to minimize drag, sizing of lifting surfaces to ensure proper dynamic stability, numerical performance methods, and common faults and fixes in aircraft design. In most cases, numerical examples involve actual aircraft specs. Concepts are visually depicted by a number of useful black-and-white figures, photos, and graphs (with full-color images included in the eBook only). Broad and deep in coverage, it is intended for practicing engineers, aerospace engineering students, mathematically astute amateur aircraft designers, and anyone interested in aircraft design. - Organized by articles and structured in an "equation/derivation/solved example" format for easy access to the content you need - Numerical examples involve actual aircraft specs - Contains high-interest topics not found in other texts, including sizing of horizontal and vertical tails to minimize drag, sizing of lifting surfaces to ensure proper dynamic stability, numerical performance methods, and common faults and fixes in aircraft design - Provides a unique safety-oriented design checklist based on industry experience - Discusses advantages and disadvantages of using computational tools during the design process - Features detailed summaries of design options detailing the pros and cons of each aerodynamic solution - Includes three case studies showing applications to business jets, general aviation aircraft, and UAVs - Numerous high-quality graphics clearly illustrate the book's concepts (note: images are full-color in eBook only)
