Interactional aerodynamics and acoustics of a hingeless coaxial helicopter with an auxiliary propeller in forward flight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The aerodynamics and acoustics of a generic coaxial helicopter with a stiff main rotor system and a tail- mounted propulsor are investigated using Brown's Vorticity Transport Model.

Numerical study of the unsteady aerodynamics of helicopter rotor aerofoils

open access: yes, 1999
A two-dimensional model of the aerodynamics of rotor blades in forward flight is proposed in which the motion of the blade is represented by periodical variations of the freestrearn velocity and incidence. A novel implicit methodology for the solution

Inverse design of aerodynamic configuration using generative topographic mapping

open access: yesXibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao, 2022
The inverse design method of aerodynamic configuration is hard to give a reasonable pressure distribution, and strongly rely on experience of designers. The method has been difficult to adapt to the needs of modern aircraft design.

Improved Delayed Detached-Eddy Investigations on the Flow Control of the Leading-Edge Flat Spoiler of the Cavity in the Low-Aspect-Ratio Aircraft

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
The internal weapon bay is widely used in modern aircraft; however, because the unsteady flows of the cavity would cause dangerous store separation and intense aerodynamic noise, the leading-edge spoiler is an easy and efficient passive flow-control ...

Dynamic oxidation mechanism of carbon fiber reinforced SiC matrix composite in high-enthalpy and high-speed plasmas

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Ceramics, 2022
This work employed an inductively coupled plasma wind tunnel to study the dynamic oxidation mechanisms of carbon fiber reinforced SiC matrix composite (Cf/SiC) in high-enthalpy and high-speed plasmas.

Oxidation induced emissivity evolution of silicon carbide based thermal protection materials in hypersonic environments

open access: yesJournal of Asian Ceramic Societies, 2021
The emissivity of typical SiC-based thermal protection materials was measured in-situ at a wide temperature range (800 ~ 2300°C) inside a plasma wind tunnel that was capable of simulating hypersonic environments on-ground.

Hypersonic aerodynamic force balance using temperature compensated semiconductor strain gauges

open access: yesAdvances in Aerodynamics, 2023
Metal foil strain gauges remain the state-of-the-art transducers for wind tunnel balances. While strain gauge technology is very mature, piezoresistive semiconductor sensors offer alternatives that are worth exploring to assess their unique benefits ...
