Capsule Abort Recontact Simulation
A study is performed to ascertain the validity of the use of inviscid and viscous simulation methods to predict the axial and normal forces during a launch abort scenario for manned space flight vehicles. The proximity drag character of the Apollo launch escape vehicle (LEV) was studied in detail in a wind tunnel during the Apollo program. Simulation results obtained during the present effort a...
متن کاملSupersonic Unsteady Flow around a Capsule-shaped Abort System with Angle of Attack
Supersonic flow over a capsule-shaped abort system with angle of attack (AoA) of α, which is boosted by supersonic aerodynamic interference, is investigated numerically through the 3D simulation. The objective of this study is to examine the effects of AoA on aerodynamic stability. In the previous study, the flowfield around this system at α = 0 is unsteady and has a strong periodic flow oscill...
متن کاملMultiobjective Aerodynamic Optimization of Supersonic Wings Using Navier-Stokes Equations
The design optimization of a wing for supersonic transport by means of Multiobjective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) is presented. The objective function is to minimize the drag for transonic cruise, the drag for supersonic cruise and the bending moment at the wing root for the supersonic condition. The wing shape is defined by planform, thickness distributions and warp shapes, in total of 66 design ...
متن کاملAerodynamic Performance Enhancement of a NACA 66-206 Airfoil Using Supersonic Channel Airfoil Design
Supersonic channel airfoil design techniques have been shown to significantly reduce drag in high-speed flows over diamond shaped airfoils by Ruffin and colleagues. The effect of applying these techniques to a NACA 66-206 airfoil is presented. The design domain entails channel heights of 8-16.6% thickness-to-chord and speeds from Mach 1.5-3.0. Numerical simulations show an increase in the lift-...
متن کاملImprovement of the aerodynamic performance by wing flexibility and elytra--hind wing interaction of a beetle during forward flight.
In this work, the aerodynamic performance of beetle wing in free-forward flight was explored by a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) simulation with measured wing kinematics. It is shown from the CFD results that twist and camber variation, which represent the wing flexibility, are most important when determining the aerodynamic performance. Twisting wing significantly increa...
