  • The Four Forces of Flight
    1 Aviation For Kids: A Mini Course For Students in Grades 2-5 Adopted from AvKids for use by the EAA The AvKids Program developed by the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) represents what may be the best short course in aviation science for students in grades 2-5. The following pages represents a slightly modified version of the program, with additions and deletions to provide the best activities for the development of the four forces of flight. In addition, follow up activities included involve team work problem solving in geography, writing, and mathematics. In addition, what may be the best aviation glossary for young students has been included. Topics Covered in The Mini-Course 1. The Four Forces of Flight 2. Thrust 3. Weight 4. Drag 5. Lift 6. The Main Parts of a Plane 7. Business Aviation: An Extension of General Aviation 8. Additional Aviation Projects 9. Aviation Terms 2 The Four Forces of Flight An aircraft in straight and level, constant velocity flight is acted upon by four forces: lift, weight, thrust, and drag. The opposing forces balance each other; in the vertical direction, lift opposes weight, in the horizontal direction, thrust opposes drag. Any time one force is greater than the other force along either of these directions, an acceleration will result in the direction of the larger force. This acceleration will occur until the two forces along the direction of interest again become balanced. Drag: The air resistance that tends to slow the forward movement of an airplane due to the collisions of the aircraft with air molecules.

Delft University Of Technology Department Of Flight Performance and Propulsion The undersigned hereby certify that they have read and recommend to the Faculty of Aerospace En- gineering for acceptance a thesis entitled “Wing Shape Multidisciplinary Design Optimization” by Jan Mariens in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Dated: August 2, 2012 Head of Department: Dr. ir. Dries Visser Supervisor: Ali Elham, MSc. Reader one: Prof. dr. ir. Egbert Torenbeek Reader two: Dr. ir. Roelof Vos Summary Multidisciplinary design optimizations have shown great benefits for aerospace applications in the past. Especially in the last decades with the advent of high speed computing. Still computational time limits the desire for models with high level of fidelity cannot be always fulfilled. As a conse- quence, fidelity is often sacrificed in order to keep the computing time of the optimization within limits. There is always a compromise required to select proper tools for an optimization problem. In this final thesis work, the differences between existing weight modeling techniques are investi- gated. Secondly, the results of using different weight modeling techniques in multidisciplinary design optimization of aircraft wings is compared. The aircraft maximum take-off weight was selected as the objective function.

  • Small Gas Turbines Chapter 2 Fuel Systems
    Chapter 2 Fuel Systems A complex part of a typical small gas turbine is the fuel system. Small gas turbines in a similar way to much larger units make high demands on the fuel systems. A typical fuel system is required to start and accelerate the engine, govern or control the engine at one or more running speeds, maintain a given speed under load conditions and in many designs, the engine must be protected against excessive exhaust gas temperatures and compressor surging. All small gas turbines are designed to operate on Jet fuel such as Jet A, Jet A1 and JP4, these fuels are similar to Kerosene. Paraffin is a type of kerosene, as is 28 second heating oil and gas oil. Small engines will run satisfactorily on any of these fuels, tolerance of differing fuels is one of the advantages of the gas turbine engine. As the combustion process is continuous and takes place at constant pressure, there are no problems with detonation or pinking. Detonation or pinking which is associated with piston engines significantly limits their performance. Certain designs of gas turbine intended for specialist stationary applications may be operated on natural gas. Many small engines may be operated on Diesel fuel or Petrol (Gasoline), the basic performance of the engine will be unaffected but prolonged use is not recommended for a number of reasons. Diesel fuel contains sulfur that may deposit itself on components in the fuel system. Certain fuel pump components are often silver-plated which will be damaged by the sulfur content in the fuel.

  • Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee
    Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee Airman Certification System Working Group Interim Recommendation Report August 8, 2018 August 8, 2018 Yvette A. Rose Chair, Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20591 Dear Ms. Rose, On behalf of the Airman Certification System Working Group (ACSWG), we submit the following interim recommendation report to the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC) for consideration and implementation. The FAA and the aviation industry have continued its collaborative effort to improve airman training and testing by establishing an integrated, holistic airman certification system that clearly aligns testing with the certification standards, guidance, and reference materials, and maintains that alignment. As part of its ongoing effort, the ACSWG is presenting feedback on draft standards for the Private Pilot Rotorcraft Pilot Helicopter and Instrument Rating – Powered-Lift. Additionally, we have included recommendations on the Aviation Instructor Handbook (FAA-H-8083-9B) and the Helicopter Flying Handbook (FAA-H-8083-21B). Collectively, we recommend and endorse the committee’s transmittal of the working group recommendations to the FAA for further review, incorporation, and execution. We are confident that, by doing so, the safety of aviation will continue to markedly improve. Sincerely, David Oord Susan Parson Eric Crump ARAC Vice-Chair & ACSWG Chair FAA Representative ACSWG Subgroup Lead Senior Director, Regulatory Affairs Flight Standards Service Federal Aerospace Program Director Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association Aviation Administration Polk State College Janeen Kochan, PhD, FRAeS, John “Mac” McWhinney Jackie Spanitz AMT ACS Subgroup Co-chair ACSWG Subgroup Lead ACSWG Subgroup Lead General Human Factors Scientist/Designated Pilot Examiner/ Senior Course Developer Manager Instructor Pilot King Schools, Inc.
