The Effect of Steady Tailplane Lift on the Oscillatory Behaviour of a T-Tail Flutter Model at High Subsonic Speeds
نویسنده
چکیده
The oscillatory behaviour of a T-tail has been investigated at high subsonic Mach numbers on an aero-elastic model having tailplane settings of zero and three degrees. There is broadly satisfactory agreement between calculated and measured values of modal frequency and damping. The comparison has been based mainly on the flutter margin criterion of Zimmerman and Weissenburger, since the more conventional comparisons are inconclusive.

Flutter Analysis of a Low Aspect Ratio Swept- Back Trapezoidal Wing at Low Subsonic Flow
A linear, aeroelastic analysis of a low aspect ratio swept back trapezoidal wing modeled as a cantilever plate is presented. An analytical and numerical formulation for both the aerodynamic forcing and structural response of the wing was developed. The analytical model uses a three dimensional time domain vortex lattice aerodynamic method. A Rayleigh-Ritz approach has been used to transfer equa...
متن کاملTests at Subsonic Speeds on a Half-Wing with a Fan Engine Nacelle
SUMMARY Flutter tests have been made on a half-wing model with a fan-engine nacelle attached by a pylon at an inboard section. The model was nominally rigid and flexibilities in pitch and roll were introduced at the root. Measurements were made of the flutter characteristics of the model at Mach numbers of 0.6 and 0.8 over a range of dynamic pressures using three different methods of analysis. ...
متن کاملImpact of Body on the Tail Surface Flowfield at High Incidences
An experimental study was performed to investigate the effects of the body angle of attack on the tail surface pressure distribution for a half body-tail combination in subsonic flow. The results show, in small deflection angle regions, that the tail deflection has the same effect on the surface pressure as the body angle of attack. However at moderate to high deflections, the flowfiled caused ...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of the Effect of Vertical Tail on the Flow Field and Aerodynamic Forces of a fighter Model
An intensive experimental investigation was conducted to study the effect of vertical tail, single and twin (with different cant angles) on the flow field and the corresponding aerodynamic forces and moments of a model of a fighter A/C. Aerodynamic forces under different flight conditions and different vertical tail settings were measured in a supersonic wind tunnel. Furthermore, effects of ver...
