Chapter 4: Immersed Body Flow [Pp
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. -

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. -
Aerodynamics of High-Performance Wing Sails
Aerodynamics of High-Performance Wing Sails J. otto Scherer^ Some of tfie primary requirements for tiie design of wing sails are discussed. In particular, ttie requirements for maximizing thrust when sailing to windward and tacking downwind are presented. The results of water channel tests on six sail section shapes are also presented. These test results Include the data for the double-slotted flapped wing sail designed by David Hubbard for A. F. Dl Mauro's lYRU "C" class catamaran Patient Lady II. Introduction The propulsion system is probably the single most neglect ed area of yacht design. The conventional triangular "soft" sails, while simple, practical, and traditional, are a long way from being aerodynamically desirable. The aerodynamic driving force of the sails is, of course, just as large and just as important as the hydrodynamic resistance of the hull. Yet, designers will go to great lengths to fair hull lines and tank test hull shapes, while simply drawing a triangle on the plans to define the sails. There is no question in my mind that the application of the wealth of available airfoil technology will yield enormous gains in yacht performance when applied to sail design. Re cent years have seen the application of some of this technolo gy in the form of wing sails on the lYRU "C" class catamar ans. In this paper, I will review some of the aerodynamic re quirements of yacht sails which have led to the development of the wing sails. For purposes of discussion, we can divide sail require ments into three points of sailing: • Upwind and close reaching. -

Formula 1 Race Car Performance Improvement by Optimization of the Aerodynamic Relationship Between the Front and Rear Wings
The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Engineering FORMULA 1 RACE CAR PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT BY OPTIMIZATION OF THE AERODYNAMIC RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE FRONT AND REAR WINGS A Thesis in Aerospace Engineering by Unmukt Rajeev Bhatnagar © 2014 Unmukt Rajeev Bhatnagar Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science December 2014 The thesis of Unmukt R. Bhatnagar was reviewed and approved* by the following: Mark D. Maughmer Professor of Aerospace Engineering Thesis Adviser Sven Schmitz Assistant Professor of Aerospace Engineering George A. Lesieutre Professor of Aerospace Engineering Head of the Department of Aerospace Engineering *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii Abstract The sport of Formula 1 (F1) has been a proving ground for race fanatics and engineers for more than half a century. With every driver wanting to go faster and beat the previous best time, research and innovation in engineering of the car is really essential. Although higher speeds are the main criterion for determining the Formula 1 car’s aerodynamic setup, post the San Marino Grand Prix of 1994, the engineering research and development has also targeted for driver’s safety. The governing body of Formula 1, i.e. Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) has made significant rule changes since this time, primarily targeting car safety and speed. Aerodynamic performance of a F1 car is currently one of the vital aspects of performance gain, as marginal gains are obtained due to engine and mechanical changes to the car. Thus, it has become the key to success in this sport, resulting in teams spending millions of dollars on research and development in this sector each year. -

Anderson and Richard S. Bray SUMMARY Flight measurements of the longitudinal stability and control characteristics were made on a swept-wing jet aircraft to determine the origin of the pitch-up encountered in maneuvering flight at transonic speeds. The results showed that the pitch-up. encountered in a wind-up turn at constant Mach number was caused principally by an unstable break in the wing pitching moment with increasing lift. This unstable break in pitching moment, which was associated with flow separation near the wing tips, was not present beyond approximately 0.93 Mach number over the lift range covered in these tests. The pitch-up encountered in a high Mach number dive-recovery maneuver was due chiefly to a reduction in the wing- fuselage stability with decreasing Mach number. -

Wing Load and Angle of Attack Identification by Integrating Optical
applied sciences Article Wing Load and Angle of Attack Identification by Integrating Optical Fiber Sensing and Neural Network Approach in Wind Tunnel Test Daichi Wada * and Masato Tamayama Aeronautical Technology Directorate, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, 6-13-1 Osawa, Mitaka-shi, Tokyo 181-0015, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-50-3362-5566 Received: 18 March 2019; Accepted: 2 April 2019; Published: 8 April 2019 Abstract: The load and angle of attack (AoA) for wing structures are critical parameters to be monitored for efficient operation of an aircraft. This study presents wing load and AoA identification techniques by integrating an optical fiber sensing technique and a neural network approach. We developed a 3.6-m semi-spanned wing model with eight flaps and bonded two optical fibers with 30 fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) each along the main and aft spars. Using this model in a wind tunnel test, we demonstrate load and AoA identification through a neural network approach. We input the FBG data and the eight flap angles to a neural network and output estimated load distributions on the eight wing segments. Thereafter, we identify the AoA by using the estimated load distributions and the flap angles through another neural network. This multi-neural-network process requires only the FBG and flap angle data to be measured. We successfully identified the load distributions with an error range of −1.5–1.4 N and a standard deviation of 0.57 N. The AoA was also successfully identified with error ranges of −1.03–0.46◦ and a standard deviation of 0.38◦. -
CAP High Ground 18.03
The High Ground A Newsletter From Wyoming Wing Standards/Evaluation 15 March, 2018 Hot Topics Pilot Proficiency Profiles… The New Reality! With the implementation of CAPR 70-1 Flight Management, the Air Force came out with new requirements for documentation of training sorties. The AF now requires us to document what is planned, and what we actually accomplished during that sortie, per the Pilot Prof iciency Profile. We are required to accomplish all of the REQUIRED items listed in the PPP Checklist. We have to document each item and upload/note supporting documentation, or document why we did not accomplish the required item. Please review the preamble of the Pilot Proficiency Profiles (first page) and the specific Profile which you are planning on flying. Unfortunately, we can’t “just wing it” anymore. (Sigh) This ain’t my idea, this is from “On High”. Pilot Proficiency Profiles To review, the Pilot Proficiency Profiles, dated 01 January 2018, have changes. Best to print out a copy and keep it handy while operating under any one of these Profiles. And the Profiles are now to be documented in the “Profile Used” in WMIRS as P#, i.e. Profile number 1 would be entered as “P1”. Note that each Profile has a header which dictates the PIC qualifications to operate under that Profile. Read these before you attempt to fly the Profile. Now the BIG CHANGE is in the details of each Profile, what we are expected to do, and what we have to document for each Pilot Proficiency Profile sortie. Each PPP has in its description “Routine” and “Required” Items.
