    Description: Aircraft icing flight research was performed in natural icing conditions with a twin engine computer type STOL aircraft. In-flight measurements were made of the icing cloud environment, the shape of the ice accretion on the wing, and the corresponding increase in the wing section drag. Results are presented for three icing encounters. On one flight, the wing section drag coefficient increased 35 percent over the uniced baseline for cruise conditions while a 43 percent increase was observed at an aircraft angle of attack of 6.2 degrees.

    Description: A time-domain Green's Function Method for unsteady supersonic potential flow around complex aircraft configurations is presented. The focus is on the supersonic range wherein the linear potential flow assumption is valid. The Green's function method is employed in order to convert the potential-flow differential equation into an integral one. This integral equation is then discretized, in space through standard finite-element technique, and in time through finite-difference, to yield a linear algebraic system of equations relating the unknown potential to its prescribed co-normalwash (boundary condition) on the surface of the aircraft. The arbitrary complex aircraft configuration is discretized into hyperboloidal (twisted quadrilateral) panels. The potential and co-normalwash are assumed to vary linearly within each panel. Consistent with the spatial linear (first-order) finite-element approximations, the potential and co-normalwash are assumed to vary linearly in time. The long range goal of our research is to develop a comprehensive theory for unsteady supersonic potential aerodynamics which is capable of yielding accurate results even in the low supersonic (i.e., high transonic) range.

    Description: A frequency domain Green's Function Method for unsteady supersonic potential flow around complex aircraft configurations is presented. The focus is on the supersonic range wherein the linear potential flow assumption is valid. In this range the effects of the nonlinear terms in the unsteady supersonic compressible velocity potential equation are negligible and therefore these terms will be omitted. The Green's function method is employed in order to convert the potential flow differential equation into an integral one. This integral equation is then discretized, through standard finite element technique, to yield a linear algebraic system of equations relating the unknown potential to its prescribed co-normalwash (boundary condition) on the surface of the aircraft. The arbitrary complex aircraft configuration (e.g., finite-thickness wing, wing-body-tail) is discretized into hyperboloidal (twisted quadrilateral) panels. The potential and co-normalwash are assumed to vary linearly within each panel. The long range goal is to develop a comprehensive theory for unsteady supersonic potential aerodynamic which is capable of yielding accurate results even in the low supersonic (i.e., high transonic) range.

    Description: The wave equation for an object in arbitrary motion is investigated analytically using a BEM approach, and practical applications to potential flows of compressible fluids around aircraft wings and helicopter rotors are considered. The treatment accounts for arbitrary combined rotational and translational motion of the reference frame and for the wake motion. The numerical implementation as a computer algorithm is demonstrated on problems with prescribed and free wakes, the former in compressible flows and the latter for incompressible flows; results are presented graphically and briefly characterized.

    Description: A new general boundary-element methodology for the analysis of helicopter rotors in potential compressible flows is presented. The methodology is based on the use of the velocity potential (instead of the more common acceleration potential). The derivation of the integral equation is outlined, along with the boundary-element algorithm used for the computational implementation. In addition, numerical results for a helicopter rotor in hover are studied in detail, with particular emphasis on the convergence analysis. The numerical resutls are in excellent agreement with existing results by Rao and Schatzle (1977).
