Computational aerodynamics for aircraft design.
This article outlines some of the principal issues in the development of numerical methods for the prediction of flows over aircraft and their use in the design process. These include the choice of an appropriate mathematical model, the design of shock-capturing algorithms, the treatment of complex geometric configurations, and shape modifications to optimize the aerodynamic performance.
متن کاملAerodynamics of Spheres
Introduction This discussion is a qualitative treatment of a topic that is usually treated rigorously and quantitatively in engineering textbooks. This discussion is intended for the general audience of nonspecialists and will attempt to convey the main ideas behind aerodynamics of spheres in a qualitative manner, with a minimum number of mathematical equations. As the Latin roots of the word i...
متن کاملStudies of Baseball Aerodynamics
Analysis of the aerodynamic forces acting on baseball pitches from major league games reveals a large variance in the measured coefficients of lift and drag. We have examined possible explanations for this effect and found that, while uncertainties introduced by measurement error and the method of reporting major league pitch trajectories do explain some of the spread, the reasons for the large...
متن کاملAerodynamics of Race Cars
Race car performance depends on elements such as the engine, tires, suspension, road, aerodynamics, and of course the driver. In recent years, however, vehicle aerodynamics gained increased attention, mainly due to the utilization of the negative lift (downforce) principle, yielding several important performance improvements. This review briefly explains the significance of the aerodynamic down...
متن کاملAerodynamics 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 ...
