Book Description
Summary: Two low-drag airfoils, the NACA 747A315 and the NACA 747A415, designed to have reduced pitching moments about the quarter-chord point and moderately high values of the design lift coefficient have been tested in the NACA two-dimensional low-turbulence pressure tunnel. Section lift, drag, and pitching-moment coefficients are presented for Reynolds numbers of 3 x 106, 6 x 106, and 9 x 106, together with section lift and section drag data for a Reynolds number of 6 x 106 for the same airfoils with roughened leading edges.

The Grand Designers
Author: John D. Anderson Jr
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108340563
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
The airplane has experienced phenomenal advancement in the twentieth century, changing at an exponential rate from the Wright brothers to the present day. In this ground breaking work based on new research, Dr John D. Anderson, Jr, a curator at the National Air and Space Museum, analyzes the historical development of the conceptual design process of the airplane. He aims to answer the question of whether airplane advancement has been driven by a parallel advancement in the intellectual methodology of conceptual airplane design. In doing so, Anderson identifies and examines six case histories of 'grand designers' in this field, and challenges some of the preconceived notions of how the intellectual methodology of conceptual airplane design advanced. Filled with over one hundred illustrations which bring his words to life, Anderson unfolds the lives and thoughts of these grand designers.

Three-Dimensional Flow in the Root Region of Wind Turbine Rotors
Author: Galih Bangga
Publisher: kassel university press GmbH
ISBN: 373760536X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
This book presents the state of the art in the analyses of three-dimensional flow over rotating wind turbine blades. Systematic studies for wind turbine rotors with different sizes were carried out numerically employing three different simulation approaches, namely the Euler, URANS and DDES methods. The main mechanisms of the lift augmentation in the blade inboard region are described in detail. The physical relations between the inviscid and viscous effects are presented and evaluated, emphasizing the influence of the flow curvature on the resulting pressure distributions. Detailed studies concerning the lift augmentation for large wind turbine rotors are considered as thick inboard airfoils characterized by massive separation are desired to stronger contribute to power production. Special attention is given to the analyses of wind turbine loads and flow field that can be helpful for the interpretation of the occurring physical phenomena. The book is aimed at students, researchers, engineers and physicists dealing with wind engineering problems, but also for a wider audience involved in flow computations.

Automatic Control of Aircraft and Missiles
Author: John H. Blakelock
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 9780471506515
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 668
Book Description
This Second Edition continues the fine tradition of its predecessor by exploring the various automatic control systems in aircraft and on board missiles. Considerably expanded and updated, it now includes new or additional material on: the effectiveness of beta-beta feedback as a method of obtaining coordination during turns using the F-15 as the aircraft model; the root locus analysis of a generic acceleration autopilot used in many air-to-air and surface-to-air guided missiles; the guidance systems of the AIM-9L Sidewinder as well as bank-to-turn missiles; various types of guidance, including proportional navigation and line-of-sight and lead-angle command guidance; the coupling of the output of a director fire control system into the autopilot; the analysis of multivariable control systems; and methods for modeling the human pilot, plus the integration of the human pilot into an aircraft flight control system. Also features many new additions to the appendices.
