In this paper, the carriage load analyses of stores installed on aircraft are conducted to validate the chimera grid method applied to an unstructured CFD solver, UMSAPv. First, the chimera grid method of UMSAPv is verified for the well-known Eglin Wing/Pylon/Finned store problem. Next, an angle of attack sweep of F/A-18C clean configuration is conducted at a subsonic speed. The computed results are compared with the results of the previous study using MSAPv, a structured CFD solver, to show the validity of Umsapv. Finally, the carriage of F/A-18C JDAM is carried out with a chimera grid as well as a single block grid. The computed results are compared with other computational, experimental and the flight tests.

Nonlinear aeroelastic analyses of composite wing with flap are performed considering free-play and dynamic stiffness of actuator. Doublet-Hybrid method is used for the calculation of subsonic unsteady aerodynamic forces. Free-play is modeled as a bilinear spring and is linearized by using the describing function method. Dynamic stiffness is obtained from governing equation of gear system and the aeroelastic analyses were performed according to ply-angle of laminate and material. The linear and nonlinear flutter analysis results show that the flutter characteristics are significantly dependent on the free-play and dynamic stiffness. from the nonlinear flutter analysis, various types of limit cycle oscillations are observed in a range of air speeds below or above the linear divergent flutter boundary.

In this paper, nonlinear transonic flutter analyses of a composite missile fin considering the effect of delamination are conducted. An effective modal analysis methodology is adopted and verified with the experimental modal test data for laminated composite plates with delamination. Extended version of the in-house computational aeroelastic analysis program with the transonic small-disturbance (TSD) code is used in order to predict the flutter dynamic pressure of the delaminated composite fin models. In the subsonic, transonic, and supersonic flow regions, nonlinear time-domain flutter analyses are performed for various delamination conditions, and aeroelastic characteristics due to the delamination phenomena are examined in detail.

확산모델과 파모델의 결과에 있어 큰 차이가 일어나는 경우를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 과도기 간이 짧다. 2) 작동온도가 아주 낮다. 3) 온도구배가 상당히 크다. 이때3)의 경우는 서로 다른 물질들이 접촉된 경우 또는 높은 열유속이 있는 경우 또는 얇은 표면층 등을 갖는 문제들의 공 통적인 특징이다. Non-Fourier 열전도 문제를 이용해 온도 분포를 예측해야 하는 실제적인 몇 가지 예를 살펴 보면 레이저 기술 또는 절대온도 영(zero)에 접근하는 온도에서의 액체 헬륨을 다루는 저온공학연구 또는 1/$10^{6}$Inch 정도의 표면조도가 관심사인 정밀공학 등을 들 수 있다. 또한 상당히 높은 강도의 열원이 작용될 때 고체에서의 크랙이나 보이드(void) 같은 국소 결함은 확산거동이 나타나기에 요구되는 시간보다 짧은 시간 구간에서 발생되어질 수 있으며, 크랙발생의 방향과 같은 것들은 hyperbolic 모델에의해 예측되어져야만 한다. 특히 움직이는 열원 또는 propagating crack tip을 갖는 경우에 그들 주위에서의 온도장을 규정짓는 가장 중요한 변 수는 열마하수 M이며, 아음속에서 초음속 영역으로 천이될 때 물리적 양들의 변화에 있어서 일어나는 현상들은 열충격의 형성에 기인하는데 이러한 현상들은 확산 모델로서는 예측될 수 없는 특징들이다. 이상에서 살펴볼 때 non-Fourier 모델에 대해 관심을 기울일 필요가 있다고 사료된다.

KARI LSWT(Korea Aerospace Research Institute Low Speed Wind Tunnel) has accumulated close to 20 years of know-how since its completion in 1998 and is trying to commercialize related technologies. As part of this research, KARI LSWT is studying design of vertical wind tunnel equipped with a skydiving simulator. KARI carries out concept design together with high performance/low noise design and is to transfer the related technology to a domestic producible company to increase commercialization possibility. In addition, KARI is seeking cooperation with related organizations in China to enter Chinese market.

초음속 항공기를 설계하는데 있어서 일반적인 항공기와는 다른 성능이 요구되는데 그것은 바로 초음속에 의한 충격파가 발생시키는 추가적인 항력을 감소시키는 일이다. 날개의 Airfoil 형상을 결정하기 위해서는 공력 특성을 파악해야 하는데, 이를 알아보는 데 있어서 EDISON_CFD를 사용하였다. 충격파의 생성을 지연시키는 Supercritical Airfoil의 여러 형상에 필요한 격자를 생성하여 비점성, 압축성 유동 해석을 수행하였다. 비교에 필요한 다섯 개의 NASA Supercritical Airfoil을 선정하여, 아음속과 초음속으로 나누어 받음각에 따른 양력계수와 항력계수를 도출하고, 이를 토대로 양항비를 추정해 보았다. 추려진 것 중 가장 우수한 공력성능을 보이는 airfoil을 선정하였는데 그 결과 NASA SC-0403 airfoil의 공력 성능이 가장 뛰어나 그것을 선정하기로 하였고, 또한 2차원 공력 해석에서 얻은 양력계수를 면적에 대하여 적분하여 날개에서의 양력과 항력을 추정하였다.

The external balance of KARl LSWT is installed by Aerotech at 1998. It has been used for more than 70 tests until 2004. The upgrade and re-calibration program are planed to solve the problem that revealed in 7-years operation and to increase the accuracy of the system. In this paper, 3 calibration results are presented. The first one is the results done by Aerotech at 1998, the second one is the results by using quick-loading system at 2004, and the last one is the results done at 2005.

A TBCC(Turbine Based Combined Cycle) engine performance design method for reusable launch vehicles flying both in subsonic and supersonic regime was proposed. The TBCC consists of turbo jet engines and ramjet engines, operating individually or together according to operation schedule. The performance scheme of turbojet and ramjet was validated and the combined engine performance of the TBCC at a typical flight condition was analyzed.

A high-resolution numerical study is carried out to investigate the transient process of the combustion and the shock-train developments in an ethylene-fueled direct-connect dual-mode scramjet combustor. Air-throttling is then applied at the expansion part of the combustor to provide mass addition to block the flow to subsonic speed, hence to enhance the fuel-air mixing and ignition. Present simulation shows the detailed results for the better understanding of transient processes of the operation regimes in the dual-mode scramjet combustor.

Ramjet mode combustion test was performed for a dual-mode ramjet engine model. The engine model consists of an air intake, a combustor and a nozzle. The combustor in the model has a large backward-facing step, designed to be used as a part of a rocket-based combined cycle engine. The test was performed at the flight speed of Mach 5 and the altitude of 24 km. Strong combustion was established only when the fuel was injected from both of the bottom-side and cowl-side wall. When the total fuel stoichiometric ratio was 1.0, distributed as 0.5 on the cowl side and 0.5 on the bottom side, the flow became subsonic at some portion in the combustor by thermal choking, i.e., ramjet mode was established for this condition.
