    Effects of fuselage forebody geometry on low-speed lateral-directional characteristics of twin-tail fighter model at high angles of attack (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Low-speed, static wind-tunnel tests were conducted to explore the effects of fighter fuselage forebody geometry on lateral-directional characteristics at high angles of attack and to provide data for general design procedures. Effects of eight different forebody configurations and several add-on devices (e.g., nose strakes, boundary-layer trip wires, and nose booms) were investigated. Tests showed that forebody design features such as fineness ratio, cross-sectional shape, and add-on devices can have a significant influence on both lateral-directional and longitudinal aerodynamic stability. Several of the forebodies produced both lateral-directional symmetry and strong favorable changes in lateral-directional stability. However, the same results also indicated that such forebody designs can produce significant reductions in longitudinal stability near maximum lift and can significantly change the influence of other configuration variables. The addition of devices to highly tailored forebody designs also can significantly degrade the stability improvements provided by the clean forebody.

    Effects of wing leading-edge deflection on low-speed aerodynamic characteristics of a low-aspect-ratio highly swept arrow-wing configuration (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Static force tests were conducted in the Langley V/STOL tunnel at a Reynolds number (based on the mean aerodynamic chord) of about 2.0 x 10 to the 6th power for an angle-of-attack range from about - 10 deg to 17 deg and angles of sideslip of 0 and + or - 5 deg. Limited flow visualization studies were also conducted in order to provide a qualitative assessment of leading-edge upwash characteristics.

    Parameter dependence of equilibrium charging potentials (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: Equilibrium surface potentials for slab configurations (representative e.g. of a large solar power satellite) are determined under extensive parametric variations of materials, solar exposure and substorm characteristics. The dependence of the charging process for dielectric surfaces on the various material response characteristics is described. The results are used as a guide to the material selection and design of large space systems to minimize dielectric breakdowns and reduce parasitic leakage currents on SPS.

    Area scaling investigations of charging phenomena (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: The charging and discharging behavior of square, planar samples of silvered, fluorinated ethylene-propylene (FEP) Teflon thermal control tape was measured. The equilibrium voltage profiles scaled with the width of the sample. A wide range of discharge pulse characteristics was observed, and the area dependences of the peak current, charge, and pulse widths are described. The observed scaling of the peak currents with area was weaker than that previously reported. The discharge parameters were observed to depend strongly on the grounding impedance and the beam voltage. Preliminary results suggest that measuring only the return-current-pulse characteristics is not adequate to describe the spacecraft discharging behavior of this material. The seams between strips of tape appear to play a fundamental role in determining the discharging behavior. An approximate propagation velocity for the charge cleanoff was extracted from the data. The samples - 232, 1265, and 5058 square centimeters in area - were exposed at ambient temperature to a 1- to 2-nA/sq cm electron beam at energies of 10, 15, and 20 kilovolts in a 19-meter-long by 4.6-meter-diameter simulation facility at the Lewis Research Center.

    Design, development, and flight of a spacecraft charging sounding rocket payload (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: Results of the flight of the spacecraft charging sounding rocket payload are given. The payload was designed to create charging by the emission of both positive ions and electrons. The relationship between environmental parameters and changes in vehicle potential during periods of emission was also studied.

    Prediction of spacecraft potentials at geosynchronous orbit (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: Two relatively straightforward techniques are outlined for determining spacecraft potentials in the limit of a 'thick sheath' surrounding the spacecraft. A statistical model of the various features of the geosynchronous environment based on ATS-5 and ATS-6 data and an analytic model capable of detailed simulation of the low energy geosynchronous environment are also discussed. The results from these two environmental models are then combined with the charging models in order to provide estimates of the relationships between the geomagnetic index and spacecraft potential. The results are compared with actual potential measurements from ATS-5 and ATS-6.

    Environmental interaction implications for large space systems (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: Large Space Systems (LSS) comprise a new class of spacecraft, the design and performance of which may be seriously affected by a variety of environmental interactions. The special concerns associated with spacecraft charging and plasma interactions from the LSS designer's viewpoint are addressed. Survivability of these systems under combined solar U.V., particle radiation and repeated electrical discharges is of primary importance. Additional questions regard the character of electrical discharges over very large areas, the effects of high current/voltage systems and magnitude of induced structural disturbances. A concept is described for a large scale experiment platform.

    Space environmental effects and the solar power satellite (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-12
    Description: Some preliminary findings regarding the interactions between the space plasma at GEO and the Marshall Space Flight Center January 1978 baseline Satellite Power Systems (SPS) design are summarized. These include the following: (1) the parasitic load will be dominated by photoelectrons and will amount to about 34 MW; (2) material of higher conductivity than kapton should be used for the solar reflector substrate and the solar cell blanket support material; (3) the satellite structure and solar reflector should be tied electrically to midpoint voltage of each solar cell array; and (4) tests should be run on the proposed solar cell cover glass material (synthetic sapphire) to determine if breakdown is expected.

    Numerical solution for perpendicular sonic hydrogen injection into a ducted supersonic airstream (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: This note discusses a computer program being developed to study the flow field near opposing perpendicular fuel injectors in scramjets. The MacCormack time-split, finite difference relaxation technique was used to solve the full two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations along with energy and species equations. By using this technique, a program was developed to consider the turbulent nonreacting flow of hydrogen and air in a rectangular duct. A damping term, proportional to the second derivative of pressure and temperature, was used to produce a stable solution behind the hydrogen jet in the neighborhood of the recompression shock. A case using actual conditions encountered in current scramjet design was analyzed, with results agreeing qualitatively with experimental observations.
