چکیده
In order to estimate Reynolds number effects on a transonic transport aircraft CFD calculations have been performed. The CFD calculations have been done solving the RANS equations on an unstructured grid for varying Reynolds number at transonic conditions. Low Reynolds number data have been extrapolated to a higher Reynolds number condition with different scaling methodologies in order to evaluate each methods strengths and weaknesses.

Direct methods for trajectory optimization are traditionally based on a priori temporal discretization and collocation methods. In this work, the problem of node distribution is formulated as an optimization problem, which is to be included in the underlying non-linear mathematical programming problem (NLP). The benefits of utilizing the suggested method for on-line trajectory optimization are ...

In this study, a white light particle image velocimetry (WL PIV) system which employs a light sheet generated with a flash was used. The system was developed in order to provide a cost-efficient and safe alternative to laser systems while keeping the accuracy limits required for hydraulic model tests. To investigate the accuracy of WL PIV method under different flow conditions, experiments were...
متن کاملMultilevel Monte-carlo Methods Applied to the Stochastic Analysis of Aerodynamic Problems
Abstract: This paper demonstrates the capabilities of the Multi-Level Monte Carlo Methods (MLMC) for the stochastic analysis of CFD aeronautical problems with uncertainties. These capabilities are compared with the classical Monte Carlo Methods in terms of accuracy and computational cost through a set of benchmark test cases. The real possibilities of solving CFD aeronautical analysis with unce...
