Book Description
Stability and Control of Airplanes and Helicopters deals with aircraft flying qualities that determine the stability and control of airplanes and helicopters. It includes problems based on real aircraft, selected to represent the gamut from simple to complicated, and from conventional utility designs to futuristic research types. Many of these problems involve comparison of theory and experiment to demonstrate their mutual relationship. Comprised of 25 chapters, this book begins with a discussion on the aerodynamics of the component parts related to the lift and moment characteristics of an airplane, including wings and associated accessories; bodies such as fuselages, nacelles, and tip tanks; and control surfaces. The reader is then introduced to some mathematical techniques for linear differential equations; steady flight at different speeds; and stick force and control-free stability. Subsequent chapters focus on flaps and high-lift devices; power and compressibility effects; and the manner in which the aircraft responds to the application of control. Aeroelasticity and longitudinal equations of motion are also examined. This monograph is intended for undergraduate and graduate students taking modern engineering courses.

Theoretical Prediction of the Effects of Vortex Flows on the Loading, Forces, and Moments of Slender Aircraft

Category : Aerodynamics
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
A theoretical method based on slender-body theory is presented for the stepwise calculation of vortex paths in the presence of wing-body combinations and the determination of the load distributions, forces, and moments on the combinations due to the vortices. Comparisons of calculated and experimental results indicate that the vortex paths and the forces induced by the vortices can be closely predicted by the calculative method only for slender configurations. The total forces and moments, however, in many cases can be predicted adequately for nonslender as well as slender triangular-wing configurations.
