As the conditions were conducive to the formation of carburettor icing, with a temperature of +5°C and a dew point of +1.6°C, particular attention was paid to the use of carburettor heat during the run-up and immediately prior to take off. The engine reportedly performed normally and carburettor heat was used during the pre-landing downwind checks and again on base leg, with its selection maintained until after the glide approach and landing, in accordance with the normal operating procedure for this aircraft.

  • Glider Handbook, Chapter 2: Components and Systems
    Chapter 2 Components and Systems Introduction Although gliders come in an array of shapes and sizes, the basic design features of most gliders are fundamentally the same. All gliders conform to the aerodynamic principles that make flight possible. When air flows over the wings of a glider, the wings produce a force called lift that allows the aircraft to stay aloft. Glider wings are designed to produce maximum lift with minimum drag. 2-1 Glider Design With each generation of new materials and development and improvements in aerodynamics, the performance of gliders The earlier gliders were made mainly of wood with metal has increased. One measure of performance is glide ratio. A fastenings, stays, and control cables. Subsequent designs glide ratio of 30:1 means that in smooth air a glider can travel led to a fuselage made of fabric-covered steel tubing forward 30 feet while only losing 1 foot of altitude. Glide glued to wood and fabric wings for lightness and strength. ratio is discussed further in Chapter 5, Glider Performance. New materials, such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, glass reinforced plastic (GRP), and Kevlar® are now being used Due to the critical role that aerodynamic efficiency plays in to developed stronger and lighter gliders. Modern gliders the performance of a glider, gliders often have aerodynamic are usually designed by computer-aided software to increase features seldom found in other aircraft. The wings of a modern performance. The first glider to use fiberglass extensively racing glider have a specially designed low-drag laminar flow was the Akaflieg Stuttgart FS-24 Phönix, which first flew airfoil.

  • USE of ELECTRIC MOTORS in the CONTEXT of GLIDER AVIATION Zastosowanie Silników Elektrycznych W Szybownictwie
    Journal of KONBiN 2021 Volume 51, Issue 2 DOI 10.2478/jok-2021-0025 Jarosław KOZUBA, Tomasz WOJNAR, Magda MROZIK, Bartosz STOŁTNY The Silesian University of Technology (Politechnika Śląska) USE OF ELECTRIC MOTORS IN THE CONTEXT OF GLIDER AVIATION Zastosowanie silników elektrycznych w szybownictwie Abstract: In sailplane aviation, I attach great importance to the achieved aerodynamic parameters due to the main idea of sailplane flights, which is the flight of a sailplane without external energy supply for staying in the air and only in favourable weather conditions, e.g. increasing thermal movements of the air. Only during take-off, external devices, such as a winch or a towing plane, can be used. Therefore, the use of a propulsion installed in sailplanes and operating only during take-off is a very convenient solution. This is a step towards facilitating the access to flying for a wider group of people due to the reduction of costs related to the take-off processes, and also increases the level of safety of sailplane flights by enabling the use of propulsion at critical moments of the flight. The study presents the current trends in the development of gliding, in particular motor gliders. Additionally, as a result of research works, the energy storage system was shown, which is the weakest element of the system, and at the same time the one with the greatest development potential.

  • MAGNUS DESIGN DEFINITIONS MA-P-02 Valid As Of: 2009, Dec
    AMS – Flight, d.o.o. Kavciceva 4 SI-1000 Ljubljana Slovenia Tel.: +386 45 35 14 00 www.ams-flight.si Fax: +386 45 35 14 05 E-mail: [email protected] MAGNUS DESIGN DEFINITIONS MA-P-02 Valid as of: 2009, Dec. Magnus is a two seat, side-by-side advanced light-weight airplane family. The Magnus, with its custom designed wing profile is a unique multi functional and multi purpose single engine aircraft for primary and advanced flying. The Magnus combines the unequalled advantages of a high performance motor-glider with unparalleled efficiency during powered long-range cruise flight. Because it is equipped with high-tech features such as flaperons, wing upper side effective airbrakes and a ground adjustable or variable-pitch propeller the Magnus can excel at every task pilots put it to. Magnus exploitation and handling costs are low due to the simple design solutions and high aerodynamic performances. Advanced design engineering concepts, gliders designs advantages, excellent aerodynamics and unique safety features make it the performance future orientated choice of Ultra Light- and Advanced Light Aircraft categories. Magnus and Mingus load measurements, structural dimensions, calculations and proofs of compliance are being completed by the Magnus family experienced design team. This will result in certification in category UL LTF in Germany (MTOM 472.5 kg) and in ULA categories of many European countries (MTOM 450 kg) and with no technical changes in category LSA for US of America and in coming ELSA for Europe as well (MTOM 590 kg). Magnus (13,35 m / 43,8 ft span, 80 hp engine) deliveries will start first, Mingus (10,6 m / 34.8 ft span, 100 hp engine) deliveries will continue and Maxus with its 17 m + / 55,8 ft + wing span (wing candidates: custom design, LS6-18w modified, LS4-b modified) will make first flights in the second half of the year 2011.

  • A Note on Glider Electric Propulsion Francisco Leme
    A Note on Glider Electric Propulsion Francisco Leme Galv˜ao Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (retired) Sao˜ Jose´ dos Campos, SP, 12242-840 Brasil [email protected] Abstract This work presents the aerodynamic effects of installing a non-retractable electric regenerative propulsion system in a typical Standard Class glider. The propulsion system, including the weight for batteries and power available are estimated using a comparison with existing electric propelled gliders. The thrust available, the additional drag during free-wind milling, and the possible power extraction are estimated. This data is used to determine the performance of a glider during gliding flight, powered flight, and while regenerating electrical power. The conclusion is that a Standard Class glider with a 1.9 meter diameter two-bladed variable pitch propeller that is driven by an electrical 25 kW motor mounted in a fixed pylon, leads to a quite interesting, safe and reliable electric motor glider that is suitable for club and cross country flight training.
