Correlation of Wind Tunnel and Flight Test Aerodynamic Data for Five V/STOL Aircraft
Author: David H. Hickey
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Airplanes
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
The five aircraft tested represent a wide variety of V/STOL concepts. Correlation between the wind-tunnel and flight-test aerodynamic results is generally good when wind-tunnel wall corrections are omitted; in some cases wall corrections are shown to degrade the correlation. The aircraft and wind-tunnel geometry are related to model-tunnel sizing parameters and a VTOL lift parameter, in order to establish tentative sizing criteria for V/STOL wind-tunnel testing with small wall effects. The report is one of the series 515-522 of papers presented at the 27th meeting of the AGARD Flight Mechanics Panel, held 11-12 October 1965 in Rome, Italy. (Author).

Theoretical Study of Conditions Limiting V/STOL Testing in Wind Tunnels with Solid Floor
Author: Harry H. Heyson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Short take-off and landing aircraft
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Under sufficiently large wake deflections, the forward portion of the wake is found to flow forward along the floor leading to a vortex pattern which results in Rae's limits (Journal of Aircraft, May-June 1967). Although wind-tunnel data cannot normally be corrected successfully beyond these limits, it may be possible to obtain ground-effect data for conditions more severe than those implied by Rae.

Book Description
The primary purpose of this investigation is to develop an economical method of experimentally checking the effect of wind tunnel wall constraints on rotors, ducted fans, tilt props, and other methods of obtaining aircraft with V/STOL performance, by the use of inserts within a wind tunnel to simulate different size test sections.

Wind Tunnel Design for Testing V/STOL Aircraft in Transition Flight
Author: Richard A. Kroeger
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
Wind tunnels have afforded the best potential for studying regions of aerodynamic uniqueness of V/STOL aircraft, but they have been of limited value because of the magnitude of the flow interference they introduce. A new wind tunnel concept is described for covering the spectrum of transition testing from hover throughout wing sustained flight. The wall interference corrections are physically produced by the structure of the wall. A small scale tunnel was designed, constructed, and tested employing this concept. Data from a small rotor model were obtained in the new tunnel and a large conventional one as a basis for comparative evaluation. (Author).
