Adaptive Airfoils for Drag Reduction at Transonic Speeds
Adaptive airfoils and wings can provide superior performance at the expense of increased cost and complexity. In this paper, an aerodynamic optimization algorithm is used to assess an adaptive airfoil concept for drag reduction at transonic speeds. The objective is to quantify both the improvements in drag that can be achieved and the magnitude of the shape changes needed. In an initial study, ...
متن کاملMeasurements of Zero-Lift Drag at Supersonic Speeds for a Symmetrical Slender Wing Model with Different Roughness Bands
Thw paper gives the results of tests in the A.R.A. 30" x 27" SupersonIc !l!wnel on a slender ogee wing (p = 0'45) to determine the drag at zem lift for the model fitted with vsx~ous alternatwe mughness bands. Tests were made at Mach numbers from M = I.6 to M = 2.4 over a wide range of Reynolds number from about R = 2.5 x IO= to R = 7rlOs,based on the wmg root chord of 2 ft. The results show tha...
متن کاملComparison of Lift and Drag Forces for Some Conical Bodies in Supersonic Flow Using Perturbation Techniques
Numerical methods are not always convergent especially in higher velocities when shock waves are involved. A comparison analysis is performed to study the supersonic flow over conical bodies of three different cross sections circular, elliptic and squircle (square with rounded corners) shaped using Perturbation techniques to find flow variables analytically. In order to find lift and drag forc...
متن کاملElastomeric Actuators on Airfoils for Aerodynamic Control of Lift and Drag
This paper investigates and characterizes the aerodynamic performance of a unique platform of airfoils with inflatable, elastomeric actuators. By controlling the inflation of stretchable and tough pneumatic bladders of silicone at specific locations of threedimensionally printed airfoils, experiments demonstrate it is possible to manipulate aerodynamic lift and drag. Measurements on morphable a...
متن کاملLift and drag in intruders moving through hydrostatic granular media at high speeds.
Recently, experiments showed that forces on intruders dragged horizontally through dense, hydrostatic granular packings mainly depend on the local surface orientation and can be seen as the sum of the forces exerted on small surface elements. In order to understand such forces more deeply, we perform a two-dimensional soft-sphere molecular dynamics simulation, on a similar setup, of an intruder...
