  • Many flight bodies are essentially imposed in gradually accelerating and decelerating free streams during taking-off and landing processes. However, the wing aerodynamics occurring in such a stream have not yet been investigated in detail. The objective of the present study is to make clear the aerodynamic characteristics of an aerofoil placed in the accelerating and decelerating free stream conditions. A computational analysis is carried out to solve the unsteady, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations which are discretized using a fully implicit finite volume method. Computational results are employed to reveal the major characteristics of the aerodynamics over the gradually accelerating aerofoil wings.

  • The aircraft scheduling, which is used to determine flight frequency, departure times and aircraft type assignments, is main problem of airline's planning. This paper proposes a new algorithm for aircraft scheduling that is to maximize airline profits. This paper proposes a column generation algorithm to get an optimal solution of the continous relaxation not using all the feasible variables, but using only a limited number of variables that is generated whenever it is necessary. Using this algorithm, proposes an optimal algorithm to get an optimal integer solution of aircraft scheduling problem efficiently. The effectiveness of the column generation algorithm and the optimal algorithm is illustrated by the computational results obtained from a series of real airline problems.

  • This paper presents the rocket motor support structure to position solid rocket engine within a missile fuselage. When the rocket motor is mounted inside a missile fuselage, fuselage structure must be designed to withstand various structural problems resulting from inserted rocket motor such as axial thrust force, shock/vibration, axial deformation of the rocket motor tank in addition to the flight loads. The motor support structure system proposed in this paper proved to be very simple and efficient while satisfying all the design requirements.

  • Effective-pivot effects on the thrust vector control performance of the flexible seal nozzle to be used to control the flight direction of missile were investigated by computer simulation. $2^3$-Design of experiment technique was applied and ADMAS was used for the surrogate technique. As a result, radial pivot position had more influence upon the nozzle actuating performance than axial pivot position. Connecting method of actuator was also important factor in determining effective-pivot effects on the thrust vector control performance of the flexible seal nozzle.

  • In this study, a boundary-layer bleeding and a two-staged fuel injection were applied to a scramjet engine for suppressing unstart transition and improving the thrust performance under Mach 6 flight conditions. With the boundary-layer bleeding, the engine could operate without unstart transition around at the fuel equivalence ratio of unity ($\Phi$ = 1). The thrust increment from the no fuel condition (dF) increased to 2460 N, which was about 1.4 times as large as that of the case without the bleeding and maximum in our Mach 6 tests. It was confirmed that the boundary-layer bleeding suppressed the separation during the engine operation. The two-staged fuel injection was less effective for improving the thrust performance com-pared with the single-staged one with the bleeding at Mach 6.

  • This paper describes development status and program of ATREX engine as a propulsion system of future spaceplane. Development activities using ATREX-500 engine from 1990 were finished in 2003 with large number of outcomes. We made system-level validation of the hydrogen fuel turbojet engine with air precooling device under sea level static condition. As a next step, we started design of the flight-type ATREX engine with large thrust and lightweight.

  • The Propulsion System Integration can be defined as the optimization technology of combining the propulsion system components with the airframe to achieve the overall aircraft misson performance goals. The disposition of propulsion system components on engine compartment enveloped by front fuselage and fire bulkhead is very restricted because of the interference with nose L/G and engine mountig strut. The design of components depends on the traditional technical data base. The engine satisfying a customer's ROC was selected among worldwide existing engines by the comparision studies of performance analysis with enigine installed effect, future growth potential, ILS, and application to aircrafts, etc. The ground test of the propulsion system integration was performed in the test cell and on the aircraft to assure the function of the components. The flight test was performed to confirm complying the performance requirements.
