STRUCTURAL DEFORMATION EFFECT ON THE AERODYNAMICS OF A WING WITH WINGLETS
Winglet이 부착된 날개의 구조변형에 의한 공력 변화
Abstract
The aerodynamic characteristics of aircraft winglet with structural deformation was investigated using the static FSI(Fluid-Structure Interaction) system. The system, comprised of CAD, CFD, CSD, VSI, and grid regeneration modules, was constructed. In the process VSI, grid regeneration, and integration modules were developed to combine CSD and CFD modules. As a test model, KC-135A, the double winglet suggested by Whitcomb, was selected and its aerodynamic characteristics for the rigid and deformable models was calculated by applying the static FSI system. As a result, the lift and drag coefficients of test models were reduced to 11% and 1.3%, respectively.
