    Enhancements of energetic ions associated with travelling compression regions in the deep geomagnetic tail (1987)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: This paper presents a representative example of an enhancement in energetic ion flux associated with the International Sun-Earth Explorer 3 (ISEE 3) spacecraft's encounter with a traveling compression region (TCR). Data from the energetic particle anisotropy spectrometer (EPAS) instrument on ISEE 3 are studied, along with magnetic field data from the vector helium magnetometer. It is concluded that the ion enhancements seen are spatial in nature, thus supporting the idea that TCRs are the lobe signatures of plasmoids moving along the magnetotail, away from earth.

    Effects of thrust reversing in ground proximity (1987)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: The changes in stability and control characteristics encountered by a thrust reversing aircraft during its final approach, landing, and ground roll are described. These changes include a strong pitch-up accompanied by the loss of horizontal tail and aileron control effectiveness. The magnitude of reverser induced changes in ground effect are much larger than corresponding changes in free air. Some unexpected unsteady motions exhibited in wind tunnel by an aircraft model with reversers operating in ground proximity are also described. The cause of this oscillatory behavior was determined to be an unsteady interaction between the wall jets formed by impingement of reverser jets on the ground and the on-coming free stream. Time histories of rolling moments measured by the wind tunnel balance or support system were removed and frequencies were scaled by Strouhal number to full scale. Corrected time series were used to simulate the motion of a fighter aircraft with thrust reversers in ground effect. The simulation predicted large roll angles and nose down attitude at touchdown. Some phenomena of jet attachment to solid surfaces are discussed and areas for future research are recommended.

    A Petrov-Galerkin finite element method for the compressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: An overview of a new finite element method for the compressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations is presented. The discretization is based on entropy variables. The method is developed within the framework of a Petrov-Galerkin formulation. Two perturbations are added to the weighting function; one is a generalization of the SUPG operator and the other is designed to enhance shock capturing capability. The treatment of boundary conditions and the consistent calculation of boundary fluxes are addressed. Results of numerical tests are presented which confirm the robustness and wide applicability of the method.

    CDAW 8 observations of plasmoid signatures in the geomagnetic tail - An assessment (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Magnetotail observations from the ISEE 3 distant (1983) tail mission taken during the Coordinated Data Analysis Workshop 8 (CDAW 8) A and G events are investigated. The ISEE 3 magnetic field, plasma, and energetic particle measurements taken in these two plasmoids have been analyzed and compared with various equilibrium structures and propagating waves/tail oscillation modes. Results indicate general agreement with either the closed-loop (Hones, 1977) or very small pitch angle flux rope (Hughes and Sibeck, 1987; Birn et al., 1989) models of plasmoid structure and poorer agreement with other hypotheses. Calculations based upon typical plasmoid and tail parameters are presented, indicating that the J and B force associated with the disconnected lobe field lines may be sufficient to accelerate plasmoids up to the speeds observed by ISEE 3. Overall, the energy expended in accelerating the plasmoids down the tail appears comparable to that dissipated in the inner magnetosphere and ionosphere. The study produces strong evidence in favor of the plasmoid model of substorm tail dynamics.

    Summary of low-speed wind tunnel results of several high-speed counterrotation propeller configurations (1988)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The low speed aerodynamic performance characteristics of several advanced counterrotation pusher propeller configurations with cruise design Mach numbers of 0.72 and 0.80 were investigated in the NASA Low Speed Wind Tunnel. The tests were conducted at Mach numbers representative of the takeoff and landing flight regime. The investigation included: (1) the propeller performance characteristics over a range of blade angle settings and rotational speeds at a Mach number of 0.20; (2) the effect on the propeller performance of varying the axial rotor spacing and mismatching the power and rotational speeds on the propeller rotors; and (3) determining the reverse thrust performance characteristics at Mach numbers of 0.0, 0.10, 0.15 and 0.20. The results of the investigation indicated that the overall low speed performance of the counterrotation propeller configurations was reasonable.

    Low-speed wind tunnel performance of high-speed counterrotation propellers at angle-of-attack (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The low-speed aerodynamic performance characteristics of two advanced counterrotation pusher-propeller configurations with cruise design Mach numbers of 0.72 were investigated in the NASA Lewis 9- by 15-Foot Low-Speed Wind Tunnel. The tests were conducted at Mach number 0.20, which is representative of the aircraft take/off/landing flight regime. The investigation determined the effect of nonuniform inflow on the propeller performance characteristics for several blade angle settings and a range of rotational speeds. The inflow was varied by yawing the propeller mode to angle-of-attack by as much as plus or minus 16 degrees and by installing on the counterrotation propeller test rig near the propeller rotors a model simulator of an aircraft engine support pylon and fuselage. The results of the investigation indicated that the low-speed performance of the counterrotation propeller configurations near the take-off target operating points were reasonable and were fairly insensitive to changes in model angle-of-attack without the aircraft pylon/fuselage simulators installed on the propeller test rig. When the aircraft pylon/fuselage simulators were installed, small changes in propeller performance were seen at zero angle-of-attack, but fairly large changes in total power coefficient and very large changes of aft-to-forward-rotor torque ratio were produced when the propeller model was taken to angle-of-attack. The propeller net efficiency, though, was fairly insensitive to any changes in the propeller flowfield conditions near the take-off target operating points.

    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Rehabilitation and extention of the capability of the altitude wind tunnel (AWT) was analyzed. The analytical modelling program involves the use of advanced axisymmetric and three dimensional viscous analyses to compute the flow through the various AWT components. Results for the analytical modelling of the high speed leg aerodynamics are presented; these include: an evaluation of the flow quality at the entrance to the test section, an investigation of the effects of test section bleed for different model blockages, and an examination of three dimensional effects in the diffuser due to reentry flow and due to the change in cross sectional shape of the exhaust scoop.

    On the 3-dimensional structure of plasmoids (1987)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: The hypothesis that the IMF penetrates plasmoids causing them to be three- rather than two-dimensional is tested by comparing observations of By within plasmoids and related tail structures to upstream IMF By data. The magnetic topologies that result from the mergings of closed plasma sheet flux tubes and open tail lobe flux tubes at a near-earth neutral line, and merging near the tail flanks are described and studied. The particle signals and isotropic electron distributions are examined. It is observed that the IMF By penetrates plasmoids and that their structure is three-dimensional. In the three-dimensional model of plasmoids the reconnected plasma sheet field lines form a magnetic flux-ropelike structure. The three-dimensional model is utilized to analyze stagnant, slowly moving and earthward moving structures.
