The aerodynamic wall
We study the trajectory of dense projectiles subjected to gravity and drag at large Reynolds number. We show that two types of trajectories can be observed: if the initial velocity is smaller than the terminal velocity of free fall, we observe the classical Galilean parabola: if it is larger, the projectile decelerates with an asymmetric trajectory first drawn by Tartaglia, which ends with a ne...
متن کاملExperiments and simulations of MEMS thermal sensors for wall shear-stress measurements in aerodynamic control applications
MEMS thermal shear-stress sensors exploit heat-transfer effects to measure the shear stress exerted by an air flow on its solid boundary, and have promising applications in aerodynamic control. Classical theory for conventional, macroscale thermal shear-stress sensors states that the rate of heat removed by the flow from the sensor is proportional to the 1/3-power of the shear stress. However, ...
متن کاملThe Aerodynamic Drag of Parafoils
The parafoil is an aerodynamic decelerator that uses the concept of parachute and airfoil aerodynamics. The device has been used as a parachute for high-precision delivering of payload (military and civilian), to recover sounding rockets, for various tethered applications (to carry instrumentation for weather survey, air pollution measurements, radar tracking systems), and as recreational parac...
متن کاملEfficient Aerodynamic Shape Optimization
Since the present author first became involved in computational fluid dynamics, around 1970, the landscape has changed dramatically. At that time, panel methods had just come into use, and the world’s fastest super computer, the Control data 6600, had only 131000 words of memory (about 1 megabyte). Prior to the break-through of Murman and Cole [1970], no viable algorithms for computing transoni...
متن کاملAdvanced Aerodynamic Control Effectors
A 1990 research program that focused on the development of advanced aerodynamic control effectors (AACE) for military aircraft has been reviewed and summarized. Data are presented for advanced planform, flow control, and surface contouring technologies. The data show significant increases in lift, reductions in drag, and increased control power, compared to typical aerodynamic designs. The resu...
