’ s Laws" NASA Education Series uses aircraft to stimulate the student’ s interest in the physical sciences and mathematics. The main emphasis lies in showing how Newton’ s three laws of motion apply to flight testing an aircraft. However, complementary areas of trigonometry, vector addition, weight and balance, along with resolution of forces are also employed. Following a brief review in the first video of Newton ’ s Three Laws and the four basic forces of flight, the presentation follows the typical sequence employed by test pilots and engineers preparing for a test flight. Aircraft weight and balance, determining takeoff distance, cruise performance, and landing distance are addressed in turn. Each lesson guide is presented in the format of a Flight Instructor ’ s Manual used by aircraft manufactures and pilots. This Manual contains certain areas where the teacher should direct the student’ s attention. Each of these areas are identified by their relative importance according to the following criteria: NOTE: Sidelight information which may add to ensuing discussions but which is not considered essential to the material content. Caution: Should the student fail to consider a particular aspect of the topic of discussion, the result may be the wrong answer to the example problem. Warning: This block will identify background information the student should already possess. Knowledge of identified concepts is essential to understanding the material being presented. The material is not given during this session but is identified to thei nstructor in order to permit discussion of the material prior to undertaking the current lesson. By way of example, consider the following: NOTE: In an actual Pilot ’ s Flight Manual, the Notes, Cautions, and Warnings are defined as follows: NOTE: An operating procedures, techniques, etc., which is considered essential to emphasize. Caution: Operating procedures, techniques, etc., which could result in damage to equipment if not carefully followed. Warning: Operating procedures, techniques, etc., which could result in personal injury or loss of life if not carefully followed. Often information that is not critical to flight safety, but which enhances the pilot’ s understanding, is provided in the form of an Operational Supplement. Throughout this manual, Operational Supplements are provided at the end of the session to enhance the understanding of the material. When appropriate, a note is added to direct the reader's attention to the end of session Operational Supplement. All units in the Flight Instructor ’ s Manual are presented in the English system.

  • Drag Force Calculation
    DRAG FORCE CALCULATION “Drag is the component of force on a body acting parallel to the direction of relative motion.” [1] This can occur between two differing fluids or between a fluid and a solid. In this lab, the drag force will be explored between a fluid, air, and a solid shape. Drag force is a function of shape geometry, velocity of the moving fluid over a stationary shape, and the fluid properties density and viscosity. It can be calculated using the following equation, ퟏ 푭 = 흆푨푪 푽ퟐ 푫 ퟐ 푫 Equation 1: Drag force equation using total profile where ρ is density determined from Table A.9 or A.10 in your textbook A is the frontal area of the submerged object CD is the drag coefficient determined from Table 1 V is the free-stream velocity measured during the lab Table 1: Known drag coefficients for various shapes Body Status Shape CD Square Rod Sharp Corner 2.2 Circular Rod 0.3 Concave Face 1.2 Semicircular Rod Flat Face 1.7 The drag force of an object can also be calculated by applying the conservation of momentum equation for your stationary object. 휕 퐹⃗ = ∫ 푉⃗⃗ 휌푑∀ + ∫ 푉⃗⃗휌푉⃗⃗ ∙ 푑퐴⃗ 휕푡 퐶푉 퐶푆 Assuming steady flow, the equation reduces to 퐹⃗ = ∫ 푉⃗⃗휌푉⃗⃗ ∙ 푑퐴⃗ 퐶푆 The following frontal view of the duct is shown below. Integrating the velocity profile after the shape will allow calculation of drag force per unit span. Figure 1: Velocity profile after an inserted shape. Combining the previous equation with Figure 1, the following equation is obtained: 푊 퐷푓 = ∫ 휌푈푖(푈∞ − 푈푖)퐿푑푦 0 Simplifying the equation, you get: 20 퐷푓 = 휌퐿 ∑ 푈푖(푈∞ − 푈푖)훥푦 푖=1 Equation 2: Drag force equation using wake profile The pressure measurements can be converted into velocity using the Bernoulli’s equation as follows: 2Δ푃푖 푈푖 = √ 휌퐴푖푟 Be sure to remember that the manometers used are in W.C.

    MECH 3492 Fluid Mechanics and Applications Univ. of Manitoba Fall Term, 2017 Chapter 4: Immersed Body Flow [pp. 445-459 (8e), or 374-386 (9e)] Dr. Bing-Chen Wang Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Univ. of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 5V6 When a viscous fluid flow passes a solid body (fully-immersed in the fluid), the body experiences a net force, F, which can be decomposed into two components: a drag force F , which is parallel to the flow direction, and • D a lift force F , which is perpendicular to the flow direction. • L The drag coefficient CD and lift coefficient CL are defined as follows: FD FL CD = 1 2 and CL = 1 2 , (112) 2 ρU A 2 ρU Ap respectively. Here, U is the free-stream velocity, A is the “wetted area” (total surface area in contact with fluid), and Ap is the “planform area” (maximum projected area of an object such as a wing). In the remainder of this section, we focus our attention on the drag forces. As discussed previously, there are two types of drag forces acting on a solid body immersed in a viscous flow: friction drag (also called “viscous drag”), due to the wall friction shear stress exerted on the • surface of a solid body; pressure drag (also called “form drag”), due to the difference in the pressure exerted on the front • and rear surfaces of a solid body. The friction drag and pressure drag on a finite immersed body are defined as FD,vis = τwdA and FD, pres = pdA , (113) ZA ZA Streamwise component respectively.

Johns, Flight Operations Engineer, Flight Operations Engineering This article is the third in a series exploring fuel conservation strategies. Every takeoff is an opportunity to save fuel. If each takeoff and climb is performed efficiently, an airline can realize significant savings over time. But what constitutes an efficient takeoff? How should a climb be executed for maximum fuel savings? The most efficient flights actually begin long before the airplane is cleared for takeoff.

A class of body exists, However for which the component of the resultant force normal to the direction to the motion is many time greater than the component resisting the motion, and the possibility of the flight of an airplane depends on the use of the body of this class for wing structure. Airfoil is such an aerodynamic shape that when it moves through air, the air is split and passes above and below the wing. The wing’s upper surface is shaped so the air rushing over the top speeds up and stretches out. This decreases the air pressure above the wing. The air flowing below the wing moves in a comparatively straighter line, so its speed and air pressure remain the same.

  • No Acoustical Change” for Propeller-Driven Small Airplanes and Commuter Category Airplanes
    4/15/03 AC 36-4C Appendix 4 Appendix 4 EQUIVALENT PROCEDURES AND DEMONSTRATING "NO ACOUSTICAL CHANGE” FOR PROPELLER-DRIVEN SMALL AIRPLANES AND COMMUTER CATEGORY AIRPLANES 1. Equivalent Procedures Equivalent Procedures, as referred to in this AC, are aircraft measurement, flight test, analytical or evaluation methods that differ from the methods specified in the text of part 36 Appendices A and B, but yield essentially the same noise levels. Equivalent procedures must be approved by the FAA. Equivalent procedures provide some flexibility for the applicant in conducting noise certification, and may be approved for the convenience of an applicant in conducting measurements that are not strictly in accordance with the 14 CFR part 36 procedures, or when a departure from the specifics of part 36 is necessitated by field conditions. The FAA’s Office of Environment and Energy (AEE) must approve all new equivalent procedures. Subsequent use of previously approved equivalent procedures such as flight intercept typically do not need FAA approval. 2. Acoustical Changes An acoustical change in the type design of an airplane is defined in 14 CFR section 21.93(b) as any voluntary change in the type design of an airplane which may increase its noise level; note that a change in design that decreases its noise level is not an acoustical change in terms of the rule. This definition in section 21.93(b) differs from an earlier definition that applied to propeller-driven small airplanes certificated under 14 CFR part 36 Appendix F. In the earlier definition, acoustical changes were restricted to (i) any change or removal of a muffler or other component of an exhaust system designed for noise control, or (ii) any change to an engine or propeller installation which would increase maximum continuous power or propeller tip speed.

  • UNIT – 4 FORCES on IMMERSED BODIES Lecture-01
    1 UNIT – 4 FORCES ON IMMERSED BODIES Lecture-01 Forces on immersed bodies When a body is immersed in a real fluid, which is flowing at a uniform velocity U, the fluid will exert a force on the body. The total force (FR) can be resolved in two components: 1. Drag (FD): Component of the total force in the direction of motion of fluid. 2. Lift (FL): Component of the total force in the perpendicular direction of the motion of fluid. It occurs only when the axis of the body is inclined to the direction of fluid flow. If the axis of the body is parallel to the fluid flow, lift force will be zero. Expression for Drag & Lift Forces acting on the small elemental area dA are: i. Pressure force acting perpendicular to the surface i.e. p dA ii. Shear force acting along the tangential direction to the surface i.e. τ0dA (a) Drag force (FD) : Drag force on elemental area = p dAcosθ + τ0 dAcos(90 – θ = p dAosθ + τ0dAsinθ Hence Total drag (or profile drag) is given by, Where �� = ∫ � cos � �� + ∫�0 sin � �� = pressure drag or form drag, and ∫ � cos � �� = shear drag or friction drag or skin drag (b) Lift0 force (F ) : ∫ � sin � ��L Lift force on the elemental area = − p dAsinθ + τ0 dA sin(90 – θ = − p dAsiθ + τ0dAcosθ Hence, total lift is given by http://www.rgpvonline.com �� = ∫�0 cos � �� − ∫ p sin � �� 2 The drag & lift for a body moving in a fluid of density at a uniform velocity U are calculated mathematically as 2 � And �� = � � � 2 � Where A = projected area of the body or�� largest= � project� � area of the immersed body.

  • 16.00 Introduction to Aerospace and Design Problem Set #3 AIRCRAFT
    16.00 Introduction to Aerospace and Design Problem Set #3 AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE FLIGHT SIMULATION LAB Note: You may work with one partner while actually flying the flight simulator and collecting data. Your write-up must be done individually. You can do this problem set at home or using one of the simulator computers. There are only a few simulator computers in the lab area, so not leave this problem to the last minute. To save time, please read through this handout completely before coming to the lab to fly the simulator. Objectives At the end of this problem set, you should be able to: • Take off and fly basic maneuvers using the flight simulator, and describe the relationships between the control yoke and the control surface movements on the aircraft. • Describe pitch - airspeed - vertical speed relationships in gliding performance. • Explain the difference between indicated and true airspeed. • Record and plot airspeed and vertical speed data from steady-state flight conditions. • Derive lift and drag coefficients based on empirical aircraft performance data. Discussion In this lab exercise, you will use Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000/2002 to become more familiar with aircraft control and performance. Also, you will use the flight simulator to collect aircraft performance data just as it is done for a real aircraft. From your data you will be able to deduce performance parameters such as the parasite drag coefficient and L/D ratio. Aircraft performance depends on the interplay of several variables: airspeed, power setting from the engine, pitch angle, vertical speed, angle of attack, and flight path angle.

PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC) provides ways for pilots and airplane operators to identify, understand, and mitigate risks associated with runway overruns during the landing phase of flight. It also provides operators with detailed information that operators may use to develop company standard operating procedures (SOP) to mitigate those risks. 2. PRINCIPAL CHANGES. This change to the AC aligns the runway condition reported by airports with the runway condition reported to the pilots per the Runway Condition Assessment Matrix (RCAM) in Appendix 1. It also includes updates to Appendix 3, Tables 3-2 and 3-3 that provide an accurate mathematical process that yields the depicted values, clarifies in the table titles what the tables present, and deletes the Table 3-3 Note to remove redundancy. Additional minor corrections were made to the AC.
