Efficient Parameterization of Waverider Geometries
This paper summarizes the results of investigations into the development of parametric waverider geometry models, with emphasis on their efficiency, in terms of their ability to cover a large feasible design space with a sufficiently small number of design variables to avoid the ‘curse of dimensionality’. The work presented here is focused on the parameterization of idealized waverider forebody...
متن کاملAIAA 93-2921 Interpretation of Waverider Performance Data Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
A computational study was conducted to better understand experimental results obtained from wind tunnel tests of a Mach 4 waverider model and a comparative reference configuration. The experimental results showed that the performance of the reference configuration was slightly better than that of the waverider model. These results contradict waverider design theory, which suggests that a waveri...
متن کاملParametric Geometry Models for Hypersonic Aircraft: Integrated External Inlet Compression
In this paper we are investigating a method for the design and integration of 3D external compression inlet geometries on parametric geometries of air-breathing hypersonic aircraft. We view the geometries as the first stage of a mixed compression inlet. The investigations are based on waverider geometries generated with the osculating cones waverider forebody design method. The osculating cones...
متن کاملPotential Use of Waverider and Busemann Biplane in Aerodynamic Design of High-speed Vehicles with Air-breathing Engines
Configurations derived from classical concepts of waverider and Busemann biplane have great potential of use in aerodynamic design of highspeed vehicles with air-breathing jet engines due to their ability to provide both high lift-to drag ratio and intense preliminary compression of the flow before air intakes. The issues of conceptual design of highspeed vehicles based on the use of waverider ...
متن کاملClosed-Loop Control of Leading Edge Vorticity on a 3D Wing: Simulations and Low-Dimensional Models
We study model-based feedback control of the low-Reynolds-number flow over a flat plate at large angles of attack, in both two and three dimensions. Our long-term goal is to be able to manipulate the leading-edge vortices that form on low-aspect-ratio wings at high angles of attack, and that often contribute to exceptionally large lift coefficients. In two-dimensional simulations, we present a ...
