Electrically Heated Composite Leading Edges for Aircraft Anti-Icing Applications”

De Rosa Tutor: Prof. G.P. Russo PhD course in Aerospace, Naval and Quality Engineering XXIII PhD course in Aerospace Engineering, 2008-2010 PhD course coordinator: Prof. A. Moccia ___________________________________________________________________________ Francesco De Rosa - Electrically Heated Composite Leading Edges for Aircraft Anti-Icing Applications 2 Abstract An investigation was conducted in the Aerospace Engineering Department (DIAS) at Federico II University of Naples aiming to evaluate the feasibility and the performance of an electrically heated composite leading edge for anti-icing and de-icing applications. A 283 [mm] chord NACA0012 airfoil prototype was designed, manufactured and equipped with an High Temperature composite leading edge with embedded Ni-Cr heating element. The heating element was fed by a DC power supply unit and the average power densities supplied to the leading edge were ranging 1.0 to 30.0 [kW m-2]. The present investigation focused on thermal tests experimentally performed under fixed icing conditions with zero AOA, Mach=0.2, total temperature of -20 [°C], liquid water content LWC=0.6 [g m-3] and average mean volume droplet diameter MVD=35 [µm]. These fixed conditions represented the top icing performance of the Icing Flow Facility (IFF) available at DIAS and therefore it has represented the “sizing design case” for the tested prototype. -

Aircraft Winglet Design
DEGREE PROJECT IN VEHICLE ENGINEERING, SECOND CYCLE, 15 CREDITS STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2020 Aircraft Winglet Design Increasing the aerodynamic efficiency of a wing HANLIN GONGZHANG ERIC AXTELIUS KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES 1 Abstract Aerodynamic drag can be decreased with respect to a wing’s geometry, and wingtip devices, so called winglets, play a vital role in wing design. The focus has been laid on studying the lift and drag forces generated by merging various winglet designs with a constrained aircraft wing. By using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations alongside wind tunnel testing of scaled down 3D-printed models, one can evaluate such forces and determine each respective winglet’s contribution to the total lift and drag forces of the wing. At last, the efficiency of the wing was furtherly determined by evaluating its lift-to-drag ratios with the obtained lift and drag forces. The result from this study showed that the overall efficiency of the wing varied depending on the winglet design, with some designs noticeable more efficient than others according to the CFD-simulations. The shark fin-alike winglet was overall the most efficient design, followed shortly by the famous blended design found in many mid-sized airliners. The worst performing designs were surprisingly the fenced and spiroid designs, which had efficiencies on par with the wing without winglet. 2 Content Abstract 2 Introduction 4 Background 4 1.2 Purpose and structure of the thesis 4 1.3 Literature review 4 Method 9 2.1 Modelling -

Because size and weight of this model creates a higher degree for potential danger, an added measure of care and responsibility is needed for both building and flying this or any giant-scale model. It’s important that you carefully follow these instructions, especially those regarding hinging and the section on flying. Like all giant-scale aerobatic aircraft, the Hangar 9® TOC Ultimate requires powerful, heavy-duty servos. Servos greatly affect the flight performance, feel and response of the model. To get the most out of your Ultimate, it’s important to use accurate, powerful servos on all control surfaces. In the prototype models, we used JR 8411 digital servos with excellent -

Besides giving the airplanes a distinctive appear- ance, the winglets create more efficient flight characteristics in cruise and during takeoff and climbout, which translate into additional range with the same fuel and payload.

The winglets increase the spread of the vortices along the TE, creating more lift at the wingtips (figs. 2 and 3). The result is a reduction in induced drag (fig. 4). The maximum benefit of the induced drag reduction depends on the spanwise lift distribution on the wing. Theoretically, for a planar wing, induced drag is opti- mized with an elliptical lift distribution that minimizes the change in vorticity along the span. For the same amount of structural material, nonplanar wingtip 737-800 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS devices can achieve a similar induced drag benefit as a planar span increase; however, new Boeing airplane designs Passengers focus on minimizing induced drag with 3-class configuration Not applicable The 737-800 commercial airplane wingspan influenced by additional 2-class configuration 162 is one of four 737s introduced BBJ TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS The Boeing Business Jet design benefits. 1-class configuration 189 in the late 1990s for short- to (BBJ) was launched in 1996 On derivative airplanes, performance Cargo 1,555 ft3 (44 m3) medium-range commercial air- Passengers Not applicable as a joint venture between can be improved by using wingtip Boeing and General Electric. -

AIRCRAFT CIRCULAR NO. 119. THE "AVRO TRAINER" AIRPLANE (BRITIsH)* A Training Biplane. Although the "Trainer" has scarcely a single dimension in common with the "504," the "family likeness" is quite striking. The two most marked changes are: the different shape of the rudder and the different landing gear. This airplane is primarily intended for training purposes and the requirements of -training have quite obviously been kept prominently in view throughout the design. Large, comfortable cockpits, good view, effective windshields, wide track are some of the features (Figs. 1, 3, 4) of the "Trainer." Constructional Features One of the innovations introduced in the "Avro Trainer" is that it is of all-metal construction (with exception of the fabric covering and the wooden fairings of the fuselage) in order to conform to thb requirements of the Air Ministry. In the tt Trainer" fuselage the modern form of Avro welded tube construction is employed (Figs. 5,6). Uniform stress is not easy of attainment in any aIrcraft structure, and the welded tube fuselage is no exception.
