  • 본 연구에서는 스포츠급 경항공기 모형의 공력 특성을 공군사관학교 아음속 풍동에서 측정하였다. 풍동시험은 유속 40m/s에서 이전 모델과 최근 공력성능 향상을 위해 보완된 모델에 대해 비교 실험 수행하였으며, 정확한 데이터를 얻기 위하여 흐름각 효과, 벽면효과, 지지대 간섭효과를 보정하여 공력계수를 산출하였다. 실험 결과, 두 모델의 항력계수와 양력계수가 전체적으로 유사한 경향성을 보이나 고받음각에서의 양력특성의 차이가 발생하였다. 또한 실제 비행 시의 레이놀즈 수 유동을 모사하기 위하여 Trip strip의 영향에 대하여 실험하였다. 그 결과 Trip strip을 부착하였을 경우 항력계수가 증가하고 최소항력받음각이 낮아지는 결과를 획득하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 교육 및 연구를 위한 CFD 해석 프로그램인 EDISON_CFD 프로그램을 이용하여 화물 트럭의 후면부 형상변화에 따른 공력특성을 분석해보았다. 먼저 추가적인 부착물을 장착하지 않은 기본적인 형상의 화물트럭의 공력특성을 확인 후, 후면부에 여러 형상의 Boat tail(보트 테일)과 전면부에 Cap-roof fairing(캡루프 페어링)이 부착된 형상을 해석하여 트럭이 받는 항력 감소를 통해 최적형상을 찾아가는 연구를 수행하였다. Cap-roof fairing이 부착된 형상에서 $15^{\circ}$의 특성길이가 0.3인 Boat tail에서 가장 좋은 항력 감소 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. Cap-roof fairing의 경우 6%의 항력 계수 감소를 보였고, Boat tail에서 20%의 항력 계수 감소효과를 관찰할 수 있었다. Boat tail의 각도와 길이를 변수로 하여 여러 해석을 진행한 결과 최적화된 형상을 선정할 수 있었다.

  • The effect of aspect ratio (AR) on the aerodynamic characteristics of a flapping wing was examined to analyze the design parameters of an insect-based MAV. The experimental model constructed with 4-bar linkages was operated in a water tank with the condition of a low Reynolds number. A water-proof micro-force load cell was fabricated and installed at the root of the wing which is made of a plexiglas. The wing shapes were based on the planform of a fruit fly wing. The ARs selected were 1.87, 3.74 and 7.48 and the Reynolds number was fixed at $10^4$. For AR=1.87 and 3.74, distinct lift peaks which indicate unsteady effects such as 'wake-capture' were observed at the moment of the start of the wing-stroke. However, for AR=7.48, no unsteady effects were observed. These phenomena were also observed in the delayed rotation case. The results indicate that a larger AR provides better aerodynamic performance for the insect-based flapping wing which can be applied in MAV designs.

  • Optimal aerodynamic design for the pitch-controlled horizontal axis wind turbine and its aerodynamic performance for various pitch angles are performed numerically by using the blade element momentum theory. The numerical calculation includes effects such as Prandtl‘s tip loss, airfoil distribution, and wake rotation. Six different airfoils are distributed along the blade span, and the special airfoil i.e. airfoil of 40% thickness ratio is adopted at the hub side to have structural integrity. The nonlinear chord obtained from the optimal design procedure is linearized to decrease the weight and to increase the productivity with very little change of the aerodynamic performance. From the comparisons of the power, thrust, and torque coefficients with corresponding values of different pitch angles, the aerodynamic performance shows delicate changes for just $3^{\circ}$ increase or decrease of the pitch angle. For precisive pitch control, it requires the pitch control algorithm and its drive mechanism below $3^{\circ}$ increment of pitch angle. The maximum torque is generated when the speed ratio is smaller than the designed one.

  • Urban air mobility (UAM) is being developed as part of the next-generation aircraft, which could be a viable solution to entrenched problems of urban traffic congestion and environmental pollution. A new airport platform called vertiport as a space where UAM can take off and land vertically is also being introduced. Noise regulations for UAM will be strict due to its operation in a highly populated urban area. Ground effects caused by vertiport can directly affect aerodynamic forces and noise characteristics of UAM. In this study, ground effects of vertiport on aerodynamic loads, vorticity field, and far-field noise were analyzed using Lattice-Boltzmann Method (LBM) simulation and Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (FW-H) acoustic analogy with a permeable surface method.

  • For a rectangular-highrise building with aspect ratio about six, the resonant wind speed of wind-induced vibration or galloping start wing speed can be within the design wind speed. The wind-induced vibration and galloping of highrise building with aspect ratio $H/\sqrt{DB}=6$, side ratio D/B=1 to 2 at intervals of 1/4 D/B were investigated in smooth flow. For the reducing effect of wind-induced vibration of highrise building, rectangular-highrise building with corners cutting about side ratio D/B=2 were investigated. Experimental results show that in the smooth flow non corners-cutting cases have tendency of increasing wind-induced vibration and galloping vibration then corner-cutting section. Therefore, the wind-induced vibrations on rectangular-highrise buildings were reduced effectively by using corner cut method.

  • Aerodynamic influence coefficient linearly relates pressure with downwash in panel method for load analysis in which the viscosity of a flow is ignored and the compressibility cannot be taken into account in transonic region. Since the planform of an aerodynamic surface determines the coefficient, the panel method has a limit to the analysis of low Reynolds number flow. The accuracy of the pressure distribution can be improved by a direct correction to the pressure or a correction to the downwash, which is considered the change of camber or thickness, using the aerodynamic coefficients from wind tunnel test as constraints. A premultiplying correction method as well as a postmultiplying correction method is applied to a micro air vehicle to provide more accurate aerodynamic pressure for trim and load analyses. Theoretical aerodynamic pressure is obtained from the panel method. Correction factor matrix and correct pressure coefficient are computed for the conditions with two constraints in addition to single constraint. The postmultiplying correction method gives a better improvement in pressure distribution on micro air vehicle due to the flow characteristics on it.

  • 본 연구에서는 교육 및 연구를 위한 CFD 해석 프로그램인 EDISON_CFD를 이용하여 Symmetric airfoil(NACA0012)과 Cambered airfoil(NACA4412)의 뒷전 두께에 따른 공력 특성을 분석해보았다. Chord 길이의 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%에 해당하는 뒷전 두께를 가지는 Blunt trailing edge airfoil의 받음각에 따른 공력 특성을 비교 및 분석하고, 어떠한 장단점을 가지는지 확인하였다. 그 결과 Chord 길이의 1% 뒷전 두께를 가질 때를 제외하면 뒷전 두께가 두꺼워질수록 최대양력계수는 증가하였고, 양항비와 실속각은 감소하였다. 또한, 뒷전 두께가 두꺼워질수록 Symmetric airfoil에서는 받음각 $0^{\circ}$를 기준으로 양력곡선기울기가 증가하였고, Cambered airfoil에서는 전체적으로 양력계수가 증가함과 동시에 양력곡선기울기 또한 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Experimental study was conducted to investigate aerodynamic interference effect of wing tip vortex in formation flight of high speed aircraft. In formation flight, wing tip vortex produced by leading aircraft can affect on the aerodynamic characteristics of trailing aircraft. The interference effect of flow is varied with distances between wing tips of leading and trailing aircraft. It is confirmed, in this study, that the interference of wing tip vortex generated from the leading aircraft makes the aerodynamic forces and moments of the trailing aircraft with the vertical or horizontal positions of the trailing aircraft. Especially, the lift coefficients of trailing aircraft were highly increased at y/b=-0.125, z/b=0.0 or deeply decreased at y/b=-0.5, z/b=0.38. The interfering pattern of wing tip vortices from two aircraft is precisely observed.
