In the present research, a parametric study of aerodynamic characteristics for multi-element airfoils is performed. The major geometric parameters of interest are the gap distance between airfoils and relative deflection angle of slat/flap. The present results are mainly obtained by using inviscid flow calculation, and the aerodynamic characteristics are focused on the surface pressure distribution and the lifts. The results of the present research may be used as not only qualitative data but also quantitative data for small angle of attack flows, where the viscous effect does not play major role in terms of surface pressure distribution and lifts. A further research in this subject including viscous calculation and more geometric parameters is to be performed in the future.

Wind tunnel test of an airplane model with forward swept wing was done in KARI LSWT to evaluate and measure the aerodynamic characteristics of initially designed configuration. Since the given wing planform did not fully satisfy the design requirements, local flow control devices such as vortilon, vortex generator and flow fence were used to delay separation and to enhance aerodynamic characteristics. Also decision making processes of design parameters such as vertical tail boom length, the location, size and the incidence angle of horizontal tail were discussed. The general aerodynamic characteristics of forward swept wing for various control surface deflection conditions of flap, aileron and elevator were also given.

항공기의 착륙 과정에서 지면효과에 의해 기체가 원하는 위치에 착지하지 못하는 경우가 있다. 이러한 현상들로 인해 항공기의 착륙 실패 또는 활주로 이탈로 인한 인명피해로 이어질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 착륙과정에서 쓰이는 날개의 부품중 하나인 Spoiler에 대한 공력 해석을 EDISON 전산열유체 시스템을 이용하여 진행해 보았다. 특히 Spoiler의 전개 각도를 다양하게 변화시켜가며 그 전개 각도에 의한 Lift dumping effect에 초점을 맞추어 연구를 진행하였다. 예상과 동일하게 전개각도가 커질수록 양력은 감소하였으며 항력의 경우 선형적으로 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 또한 전개각도가 20도보다 커지는 구간부터는 양력이 음수로 작아지는 현상을 확인할 수 있었다.

초음속 조건에서 Busemann biplane은 충격파의 중첩에 의해 항력 감소가 일어난다. 그러나 받음각이 증가 할 경우, 앞전에서 궁형 충격파가 발생하여 항력이 급격하게 증가한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 busemann biplane에 플랩을 주어 궁형 충격파를 감소시킬 수 있는 flap biplane의 플랩 길이와 각도의 변화에 따른 공력 성능의 변화를 분석하였다. Flap biplane의 공력성능을 기본 biplane형상 및 diamond airfoil과 비교한 결과, 동일한 양력 조건에서 항력은 diamond airfoil에 비해 약 75%정도 감소함을 확인하였다. 그리고 플랩의 길이와 양항비는 선형의 관계가 있음을 확인하였고, 특정한 플랩의 각도에서 최대 양항비가 도출된다는 사실을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 전압력의 감소를 충격파의 강도로 정의하고, 이를 비교한 결과 flap biplane의 전압력 감소가 diamond airfoil에 비해 약 25%정도가 더 작게 나타난 사실로 부터 flap biplane의 소음 감소 효과를 유추할 수 있었다. flap biplane은 초음속 영역에서 항력과 소음의 감소에 효율적인 익형임을 확인하였다.

To examine the influence of unsteady wake on the flow and heat transfer characteristics, an experiment has been conducted in a four-vane linear cascade. Flow and heat transfer measurements are made for the inlet Reynolds number of 66000(based on chord length and free-stream velocity). Turbulent intensity and stress were measured using hot wire anemometer, and to measure the convective heat transfer coefficients on the blade surfaces liquid crystal/gold film Intrex technique was used. The disturbance by the unsteady wake is characterized by the unresolved unsteadiness. The unsteady wake enhances the turbulent motion of flow in the cascade passage. It also promotes the boundary layer development and transition. The results show that heat transfer coefficients on the suction surface increase with increasing unresolved unsteadiness.

In order to improve dynamic stall characteristics of an oscillating airfoil, optimal design has been performed for fixed nose droop and Gurney flap. Fixed nose droop is known to be very effective to improve pitching moment characteristics but may cause degeneration of aerodynamic lift at the same time. On the other hand, Gurney flap has the opposite characteristics. For fixed nose droop, location and angle are chosen as design variables, while length is defined as design variable for Gurney flap. Higher order response surface methodology and sensitivity based optimal design method are employed to handle highly nonlinear problem such as dynamic stall. Optimal design has been performed so that lift and pitching moment are simultaneously improved. The design results show that aerodynamic characteristics can be remarkably improved through present design approach and the present passive control method is as good as active control method which combines variable nose droop and Gurney flap.

Nonlinear aeroelastic characteristics of a two dimensional typical section model with bilinear plunge spring are investigated. Doublet-point method(DPM) is used for the calculation of supersonic unsteady aerodynamic forces which are approximated by using the minimum-state approximation. For nonlinear flutter analysis structural nonlinearity is represented by an asymmetric bilinear spring and is linearized by using the describing function method. The linear and nonlinear flutter analyses indicate that the flutter characteristics are significantly dependent on the frequency ratio. From the nonlinear flutter analysis, various types of limit cycle oscillations are observed in a wide range of air speeds below or above the linear flutter boundary. The nonlinear flutter characteristics and the nonlinear aeroelastic responses are investigated.

The present study deals with numerical flow analysis to investigate the effect of sweep and lean on the performance characteristics of a partial admission supersonic turbine. The flow analysis was performed for three different angles. The angles of sweep and lean are $5^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$. The results of the flow analysis showed that the efficiency is improved as the sweep angle is increased. However, a sweep angle of $5^{\circ}$ was less effective in comparison with the baseline model. The total pressure loss was reduced as the lean angle is increased, but the total to static efficiency was decreased.

Aeroelastic characteristics of a deployable missile control fin have been investigated. A deployable missile control fin is modeled by a 2-dimensional typical section. Supersonic Doublet-Point method is used for the computation of supersonic unsteady aerodynamic forces and Karpel's Minimum-State approximation is used for the aerodynamic approximation. Root-locus method and time-integration method are used for the linear and nonlinear flutter analyses. For the nonlinear flutter analysis the deployable hinge is represented by a asymmetric bilinear spring and is linearized by using the describing function method. From the flutter analyses, the effects of nonlinear parameters on the aeroelastic characteristics are investigated.

This paper focuses on the application of the proposed aerodynamic optimization techniques to design the blade planform of helicopter rotors. The design problems are formulated to maximize the hover figure of merit and the equivalent lift-to-drag ratio for high forward speed by optimally distributing airfoils, twist, and chord along the blade span. The numerical characters are investigated by solving various design problems. The advantages and limitations with the present design approach and the present modeling features for performance prediction are discussed. The recommendations for the required model refinements to get more accurate optimal configurations are addressed as future research areas.
