    Flow diagnostics and visualization in wind tunnels and flight (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: The Langley Research Center has a concentrated and directed effort under way to develop both conventional and non-intrusive diagnostic instrumentation. These instruments are being developed to operate over large Mach number, total temperature, and total pressure ranges. Efforts are being made to evaluate the measurements made by the various instruments to determine the most accurate and reliable instrument to be used under a given flow environment. Although only one flow visualization technique was described, there are many different types presently being used at Langley Research Center.

    Natural laminar flow data from full-scale flight and wind-tunnel experiments (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-12-01
    Description: Experimental results obtained at NASA Langley during studies of natural laminar flow (NLF) over commercially produced aircraft surfaces are reported. The general aviation aircraft examined were light aircraft, yet displayed NLF extents close to the maximum available and equivalent to high performance business aircraft flying envelopes. Sublimating chemicals and acoustic detection techniques were employed to measure the boundary layer transition. Theoretical predictions of boundary layer stability were found to match well with the experimental data, with consideration given to both swept wings and the amplitudes of allowable waves on the airfoil surfaces. The presence of the NLF on the airfoil surfaces confirmed the benefits available from use of composite materials for airfoil surfaces.

    Stability of 3D wing boundary layer on a SST configuration (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Tollmien-Schlichting (TS) and cross-flow (CF) instability growth characteristics were studied in three dimensions, for the case of a Mach 2.4 SST with double-delta planform whose inboard leading-edge is subsonic and outboard leading-edge is supersonic. Attention is given to the requirements for supersonic speed laminarization of both highly swept, rounded leading-edge wings and moderately-swept, sharp leading-edge wings. Suction requirements for the control of both TS and CF instabilities are calculated; it is found that while mild suction and surface cooling are effective in TS-instability damping, the CF influence of such techniques is rather weak. CF instability control must be via pressure-distribution tailoring and suction.

    Correction factory techniques for improving aerodynamic prediction methods (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: A method for correcting discrete element lifting surface theory to reflect given experimental data is presented. Theoretical pressures are modified such that imposed constraints are satisfied while minimizing the changes to the pressures. Several types of correction procedures are presented and correlated; (1) scaling of pressures; (2) scaling of downwash values; and (3) addition of an increment to the downwash that is proportioned to pressure. Some special features are included in these methods and they include: (1) consideration of experimental data from multiple deflection modes, (2) limitation of the amplitudes of the correction factors, and (3) the use of correction factor mode shapes. These methods are correlated for cases involving all three Mach Number ranges using a FORTRAN IV computer program. Subsonically, a wing with an oscillating partial span control surface and a wing with a leading edge droop are presented. Transonically a two-dimensional airfoil with an oscillating flap is considered. Supersonically an arrow wing with and without camber is analyzed. In addition to correction factor methods an investigation is presented dealing with a new simplified transonic modification of the two-dimensional subsonic lifting surface theory. Correlations are presented for an airfoil with an oscillating flap.

    Low-speed wind tunnel investigation of an advanced supersonic cruise arrow-wing configuration (1977)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: A preliminary assessment of possible means for improving the low speed aerodynamic characteristics of advanced supersonic cruise arrow wing configurations and to extend the existing data base of such configurations has been made. Principle configuration variables included wing-leading and trailing-edge flap deflection, fuselage nose strakes, and engine exhaust nozzle deflection. Results showed that deflecting the wing leading edge apex flaps downward provided improved longitudinal stability but resulted in reduced directional stability. The model exhibited relatively low values of directional stability over the operational angle of attack range and experienced large asymmetric yawing moments at high angles of attack. The use of nose strakes was found to be effective in increasing the directional stability and eliminating the asymmetric yawing moment.

    A combined Eulerian-volume of fraction-Lagrangian method for atomization simulation (1994)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The tracking of free surfaces between liquid and gas phases and analysis of the interfacial phenomena between the two during the atomization and breakup process of a liquid fuel jet is modeled. Numerical modeling of liquid-jet atomization requires the resolution of different conservation equations. Detailed formulation and validation are presented for the confined dam broken problem, the water surface problem, the single droplet problem, a jet breakup problem, and the liquid column instability problem.

    Leading-edge transition and relaminarization phenomena on a subsonic high-lift system (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Boundary-layer transition and relaminarization may have a critical effect on the flow development about multielement high-lift systems of subsonic transport aircraft with swept wings. The purpose of this paper is a study of transition phenomena in the leading-edge region of the various elements of a high-lift system. The flow phenomena studied include transition of the attachment-line flow, relaminarization, and crossflow instability. The calculations are based on pressure distributions measured in flight on the NASA Transport Systems Research Vehicle (Boeing 737-100) at a wing station where the flow approximated infinite swept wing conditions. The results indicate that significant regions of laminar flow can exist on all flap elements in flight. In future flight experiments the extent of these regions will be measured, and the transition mechanisms and the effect of laminar flow on the high-lift characteristics of the multi-element system will be further explored.

    Turbulence models for compressible boundary layers (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: It is shown that to satisfy the general accepted compressible law of the wall derived from the Van Driest transformation, turbulence modeling coefficients must actually be functions of density gradients. The transformed velocity profiles obtained by using standard turbulence model constants have too small a value of the effective von Karman constant kappa in the log-law region (inner layer). Thus, if the model is otherwise accurate, the wake component is overpredicted and the predicted skin friction is lower than the expected value.

    Skin friction and velocity profile family for compressible turbulent boundary layers (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: The paper presents a general approach to constructing mean velocity profiles for compressible turbulent boundary layers with isothermal or adiabatic walls. The theory is based on a density-weighted transformation that allows the extension of the incompressible similarity laws of the wall to the compressible regions. The velocity profile family is compared to a range of experimental data, and excellent agreement is obtained. A self-consistent skin friction law, which satisfies the proposed velocity profile family, is derived and compared with the well-known Van Driest II theory for boundary layers in zero pressure gradient. The results are found to be at least as good as those obtained by using the Van Driest II transformation.

    Characterization of MOCVD fluid dynamics by laser velocimetry (1991)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Three-component laser velocimetry techniques are applied to characterize the fluid dynamics of an MOCVD reactor. These methods provide three-dimensional quantitative measurements of the gas velocities inside the reactor at typical growth temperatures. The effects of buoyancy-induced convection are examined by comparing data from the hot reactor with cold reactor results. It was found that thermal convection dominated the fluid dynamics of the reactor at growth temperatures. Cold reactor tests showed unstable flow patterns that were subject to fluidic switching effects.
