Hypersonic Vehicle Simulation Model: Winged-Cone Configuration
Author: National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN: 9781731319258
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Aerodynamic, propulsion, and mass models for a generic, horizontal-takeoff, single-stage-to-orbit (SSTO) configuration are presented which are suitable for use in point mass as well as batch and real-time six degree-of-freedom simulations. The simulations can be used to investigate ascent performance issues and to allow research, refinement, and evaluation of integrated guidance/flight/propulsion/thermal control systems, design concepts, and methodologies for SSTO missions. Aerodynamic force and moment coefficients are given as functions of angle of attack, Mach number, and control surface deflections. The model data were estimated by using a subsonic/supersonic panel code and a hypersonic local surface inclination code. Thrust coefficient and engine specific impulse were estimated using a two-dimensional forebody, inlet, nozzle code and a one-dimensional combustor code and are given as functions of Mach number, dynamic pressure, and fuel equivalence ratio. Rigid-body mass moments of inertia and center of gravity location are functions of vehicle weight which is in turn a function of fuel flow. Shaughnessy, John D. and Pinckney, S. Zane and Mcminn, John D. and Cruz, Christopher I. and Kelley, Marie-Louise Langley Research Center AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS; AERODYNAMIC FORCES; ASCENT TRAJECTORIES; COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION; CONTROL SYSTEMS DESIGN; FORCE DISTRIBUTION; HYPERSONIC VEHICLES; MATHEMATICAL MODELS; MOMENT DISTRIBUTION; PANEL METHOD (FLUID DYNAMICS); AERODYNAMIC COEFFICIENTS; ANGLE OF ATTACK; CENTER OF GRAVITY; DEGREES OF FREEDOM; DYNAMIC PRESSURE; HYPERSONICS; MACH NUMBER; MOMENTS OF INERTIA; PROPULSION; SPECIFIC IMPULSE...

Control Relevant Modeling and Design of Scramjet-powered Hypersonic Vehicles
Author: Jeffrey James Dickeson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Hypersonic planes
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
This report provides an overview of scramjet-powered hypersonic vehicle modeling and control challenges. Such vehicles are characterized by unstable non-minimum phase dynamics with significant coupling and low thrust margins. Recent trends in hypersonic vehicle research are summarized. To illustrate control relevant design issues and tradeoffs, a generic nonlinear 3DOF longitudinal dynamics model capturing aero-elastic-propulsive interactions for wedge-shaped vehicle is used. Limitations of the model are discussed and numerous modifications have been made to address control relevant needs. Two different baseline configurations are examined over a two-stage to orbit ascent trajectory. The report highlights how vehicle level-flight static (trim) and dynamic properties change over the trajectory. Thermal choking constraints are imposed on control system design as a direct consequence of having a finite FER margin. The implication of this state-dependent nonlinear FER margin constraint, the right half plane (RHP) zero, and lightly damped flexible modes, on control system bandwidth (BW) and FPA tracking has been discussed. A control methodology has been proposed that addresses the above dynamics while providing some robustness to modeling uncertainty. Vehicle closure (the ability to fly a trajectory segment subject to constraints) is provided through a proposed vehicle design methodology. The design method attempts to use open loop metrics whenever possible to design the vehicle. The design method is applied to a vehicle/control law closed loop nonlinear simulation for validation. The 3DOF longitudinal modeling results are validated against a newly released NASA 6DOF code.

Pages : 150
Book Description
In the aviation field there is great interest in high-speed vehicle design. Hypersonic vehicles represent the next frontier of passenger transportation to and from space. However, several design issues must be addressed, including vehicle aerodynamics and aerothermodynamics, aeroshape design optimization, aerodynamic heating, boundary layer transition, and so on. This book contains valuable contributions focusing on hypervelocity aircraft design. Topics covered include hypersonic aircraft aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic design, especially aeroshape design optimization, computational fluid dynamics, and scramjet propulsion. The book also discusses high-speed flow issues and the challenges to achieving the dream of affordable hypersonic travel. It is hoped that the information contained herein will allow for the development of safe and efficient hypersonic vehicles.

Hypersonic Conceptual Design Tool Comparison

Category : Aerodynamics, Hypersonic

Pages : 0
Book Description
The many iterations needed to explore a design space in the conceptual design process preclude the use of time-consuming RANS CFD for all but a few flight conditions. This research focuses on identifying the level of fidelity needed to adequately predict the aerothermodynamic characteristics of hypersonic vehicles. Three tools with differing levels of fidelity - CBAERO, Cart3D, and Kestrel - were used to analyze the Generic Hypersonic Vehicle (GHV) at the design condition of Mach 5.85 and an off-design condition of Mach 4.5. The results are representative of the different design tools but are not definitive due to the mesh size in Kestrel being limited by the available computational resources. The results obtained show a large difference in the unstart threshold predicted by inviscid and viscous CFD: 21° vs 11.75° degrees for Mach 5.85 and 14.5° vs 6.5° for Mach 4.5. Despite that difference, all three methods showed reasonable agreement for CL, CD, and CM across the entire range. The medium-fidelity method, Cart3D, was also capable of matching Kestrel's mass capture below the unstart threshold. The heat flux from the reference temperature method with Cart3D overestimated the heat flux on the bottom surface and underestimated heat flux on the top surface compared to Kestrel. At low angles of attack it appears to provide a heat flux estimate with a natural factor of safety, but it risks leading to overdesigning at higher angles of attack. The high-fidelity method, Kestrel, only showed significant differences from the lower fidelity methods in the unstart threshold, L/D, mass capture after unstarting, and heat flux at high angle of attack.
