Aerodynamics of a Morphing Airfoil
The purpose of this research is to develop a MATLAB model which can calculate the aerodynamics, such as lift, drag, and pressure, on an airfoil as it changes shape. This model needs to be computationally efficient and should have reasonable accuracy. A constant strength doublet panel code, which takes thickness and camber distribution as inputs, is used to model the aerodynamics. This code has ...
متن کاملSemi-Supervised Learning of Lift Optimization of Multi-Element Three-Segment Variable Camber Airfoil
This chapter describes a new intelligent platform for learning optimal designs of morphing wings based on Variable Camber Continuous Trailing Edge Flaps (VCCTEF) in conjunction with a leading edge flap called the Variable Camber Krueger (VCK). The new platform consists of a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methodology coupled with a semi-supervised learning methodology. The CFD component of t...
متن کاملStatic and Dynamic Morphing Characteristics of a Chiral Core Airfoil
Aeroelastic tailoring requires structural compliance and thus often conflicts with stiffness requirements to carry prescribed aerodynamic loads. Recently however, the application of cellular structural concepts has suggested the potential to achieve compliance while conserving required load-carrying capacity. Among the proposed concepts, a chiral geometry in particular is a novel configuration ...
متن کاملAn Experimental Investigation on a Bio-inspired Corrugated Airfoil
An experimental study was conducted to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of a bio-inspired corrugated airfoil compared with a streamlined airfoil and a flat plate at the chord Reynolds number of Re= 58,000 ~ 125,000 to explore the potential applications of such bio-inspired corrugated airfoils for micro air vehicle (MAV) designs. In addition to measuring the aerodynamic lift and drag ...
متن کاملCorrugated Structures and Their Applications in Morphing Wing Technology
This paper will explore the technology behind corrugated model morphing wings and their potential benefits to society. The two major models of corrugated morphing wings will be examined and explained. In order to provide background, the technology and shape behind all morphing wings will also be examined. The applications of these wings will then be explored. Using data from wind tunnel testing...
