Flow Visualization of a Commercial Passenger Airplane Realized by Reverse Engineering
역공학으로 구현한 상용 여객기에서 유동 가시화
Abstract
This paper describes the flow visualization around the model of a commercial passenger airplane, Boeing 747-400, which cruises in the transonic speed. The geometry was realized through the reverse engineering based on the photogrammetry. The three-dimensional inviscid steady compressible governing equations are solved in the unstructured grid system under the cruise condition and in a finite volume method. The convective term is processed by the Crank-Nicholson scheme and first order upwind scheme is applied. The lift and drag forces in the wing with engines increase by 1.49% End 3.9%, respectively compared with the wing without engines.
