    An investigation of several numerical procedures for time-asymptotic compressible Navier-Stokes solutions (1975)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The status of an investigation of four numerical techniques for the time-dependent compressible Navier-Stokes equations is presented. Results for free shear layer calculations in the Reynolds number range from 1000 to 81000 indicate that a sequential alternating-direction implicit (ADI) finite-difference procedure requires longer computing times to reach steady state than a low-storage hopscotch finite-difference procedure. A finite-element method with cubic approximating functions was found to require excessive computer storage and computation times. A fourth method, an alternating-direction cubic spline technique which is still being tested, is also described.

    Laser velocimetry applied to transonic and supersonic aerodynamics (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-10-02
    Description: As a further demonstration of the capabilities of laser velocity in compressible aerodynamics, measurements obtained in a Mach 2.9 separated turbulent boundary layer and in the transonic flow past a two-dimensional airfoil section are presented and compared to data realized by conventional techniques. In the separated-flow study, the comparisons were made against pitot-static pressure data. Agreement in mean velocities was realized where the pressure measurements could be considered reliable; however, in regions of instantaneous reverse velocities, the laser results were found to be consistent with the physics of the flow whereas the pressure data were not. The laser data obtained in regions of extremely high turbulence suggest that velocity biasing does not occur if the particle occurrence rate is low relative to the turbulent fluctuation rate. Streamwise turbulence intensities are also presented. In the transonic airfoil study, velocity measurements obtained immediately outside the upper surface boundary layer of a 6-inch chord MACA 64A010 airfoil are compared to edge velocities inferred from surface pressure measurements. For free-stream Mach numbers of 0.6 and 0.8, the agreement in results was very good. Dual scatter optical arrangements in conjunction with a single particle, counter-type signal processor were employed in these investigations. Half-micron-diameter polystyrene spheres and naturally occurring condensed oil vapor acted as light scatterers in the two respective flows. Bragg-cell frequency shifting was utilized in the separated flow study.

    Development and evaluation of a new method for predicting aircraft buffet response (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The buffet prediction method uses rigid wind tunnel model fluctuating pressure data to form a buffet forcing function. The response is then calculated with a mathematical dynamic model of the airplane developed for gust response analysis. By including the extremes of phasing and contribution of symmetric and antisymmetric airplane responses, the upper and lower bounds are established for buffet response. F-111A flight test data show good agreement with predicted bounds for a variety of flight conditions.

    Experiments on transonic and supersonic turbulent boundary-layer separation (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Results of experimental investigations into turbulent boundary-layer behavior under the influence of pressure gradients and with separation are presented for transonic and supersonic flow fields. In the transonic case, an axisymmetric model was implemented consisting of an annular circular arc bump affixed to a circular cylinder aligned with the flow direction. For the supersonic separation study, an oblique shock wave impinging on the wind tunnel wall boundary layer was employed to cause separation. The mean streamwise and normal velocity components as well as the respective turbulence intensities were obtained with a two-color frequency shifted laser velocimeter.

    Mach and Reynolds number effects on turbulent skin friction reduction by injection (1975)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: The investigation reported is concerned with questions regarding a possible Mach number influence on skin friction reduction caused by injection. The investigation shows that data considered by Danberg (1967) for the no-blowing skin friction coefficient are in error. Accurate profiles and local skin friction coefficient values are obtained when the influence of low Reynolds number amplification in the outer region of the boundary layer is included in a calculation method.

    Reverse-thrust technology for variable-pitch fan propulsion systems (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: Tests conducted to develop the technology necessary to meet the unique reverse-thrust performance requirements of a variable pitch fan propulsion system are discussed. The losses and distortion associated with the air entering the fan and core compressor from the rear of the engine, the direction of fan blade pitch rotation for best reverse-thrust aeroacoustic performance, and engine response and operating characteristics during forward- to reverse-thrust transients are among the factors studied. The test results of several scale fan models as well as a full-size variable pitch fan engine are summarized. Results show the following: a flared exhaust nozzle makes a good reverse-thrust inlet; acceptable core inlet duct recovery and distortion levels in reverse flow were demonstrated; adequate thrust levels were achieved; forward- to reverse-thrust response time achieved was better than the goal; thrust and noise levels strongly favor reverse through feather pitch; and finally, flight-type inlets make the establishment of reverse flow more difficult.

    Investigation of ground effects on large and small scale models of a three fan V/STOL aircraft configuration (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Induced lift of a subsonic, three fan, lift/cruise, V/STOL aircraft configuration was investigated using scale modes of a multimission aircraft whose design incorporates a nose mounted lift fan and two lift/cruise units located over the wing. Configuration effects were assessed for lift improvement devices, lift/cruise nozzle rails, nozzle perimeter plates, and alternate nose fan exit hubs. Tests were conducted at four model heights (H/D = 0.95, 1.53, 3.06 and 6.45, where D is the average nozzle exit diameter equal to 0.997 m.) Results are presented and discussed.

    A user's guide for V174, a program using a finite difference method to analyze transonic flow over oscillating wings (1977)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The design and usage of a pilot program using a finite difference method for calculating the pressure distributions over harmonically oscillating wings in transonic flow are discussed. The procedure used is based on separating the velocity potential into steady and unsteady parts and linearizing the resulting unsteady differential equation for small disturbances. The steady velocity potential which must be obtained from some other program, is required for input. The unsteady differential equation is linear, complex in form with spatially varying coefficients. Because sinusoidal motion is assumed, time is not a variable. The numerical solution is obtained through a finite difference formulation and a line relaxation solution method.

    Fire safety evaluation of aircraft lavatory and cargo compartments (1975)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Large-scale aircraft lavatory and cargo compartment fire tests are described. Tests were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of these compartments to contain fire and smoke. Two tests were conducted and are detailed. Test 1 involved a production Boeing 747 lavatory of the latest design installed in an enclosure outside the aircraft, to collect gases and expose animals to these gases. Results indicate that the interior of the lavatory was completely burned, evolving smoke and combustion products in the enclosure. Test 2 involved a simulated Douglas DC-10 cargo compartment retro-fitted with standard fiberglass liner. The fire caused excessive damage to the liner and burned through the ceiling in two areas. Test objectives, methods, materials, and results are presented and discussed.
