8、TIONS TO THE AERODYNAMIC THEORY OF UNSTEADY FLOWS One of the most useful tools in the study of unsteady flows is the concept of indicial aerodynamic functions, which may be defined briefly as the aerodynamic response of the airfoil as a function of time to an instantaneous change in one of the condi

9、tions determining the aerodynamic properties- of the airfoil in a steady flow. Theoretical aerodynamic indicial functions were first derived by Wagner (ref. 2) for the two-dimensional wing in incompressible flow. More recently, these results have been extended to cover the com- pressible case for bo

10、th subsonic and supersonic speeds (refs. 3 and 4). In addition, theoretical indicial functions have now been obtained for both wide and slender triangular wings and rectangular wings, all for supersonic speeds (refs. 4 to 6). The indicial function derives its usefulness primarily through the ease wi

11、th which it lends itself to the powerful and well-established methods of the operational calculus (refs. 7 to 9). With the use of these methods, the aerody- namic forces and moments caused by arbitrary motions of the airframe can be studied from a fundamental standpoint. Because of the wide range of

12、 applicability of this means of approach in unsteady flow analyses, a considerable portion of the succeeding discussion is devoted to the fundament.als involved.

CONCEPT IN ANALYSIS OF UNSTEADY MOTIONS OF WINGS AND WING-TAIL COMBINATIONS 3 I DEFINITION OF COORDINATE SYSTEM In the succeeding analysis the stability system of axes is used. The origin of the coordinate system is placed in the airfoil so that the y axis which is per

14、pendicular to the vertical plane of symmetry is coincident with the axis of rotation of the airfoil; the positive branch of the x axis is pointed in the direction of flight; and the z axis lies in the vertical plane of J _ -symmetry, .,positive downward. _ The.-angle of attack a is measured as the a

At any instant, the normal velocity at any point on the airfoil surface is composed of two parts, one due to the instantaneous angle of attack aV, the other due to the angular velocity at the same

17、instant -pa: (see fig. 3). These are two of the instantaneous boundary conditions of the unsteady flow. Solutions for the aerodynamic forces and moments which correspond to these boundary conditions may be derived by a number of methods involving various degrees of approxi- mation. In succeeding sec

18、tions, the use of the concept of indicial functions and the principle of superposition for this purpose will be illustrated and compared with other current widely used methods. CONCEPT OF INDICIAL FUNCTIONS In order to illustrate this concept, assume that the airfoil under consideration has been fly

At some time, which is designated time zero, the wing is caused to attain simultaneously a constant angle of Angle of pitch =0 Angle of attack= 0 FIGURE 2.-Maneuvers corresponding to purely (a) angle of pitch and (b) angle of attack varitaions. angle of pitc

Forces are measured as positive upward, whereas pitching moments are positive when tending to increase the angle of pitch in the positive direc- tion. Whe

26、 conditions only after a significant interval of time has passed. It should be noted there exists an essential difference between the length of this time interval at subsonic and supersonic speeds. At super- sonic speeds, the vorticity shed into the airfoil wake cannot influence the flow about the a

27、irfoil but at subsonic speeds this Provided by IHS Not for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-4 REPORT 1 IS%-NATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEEZFOR AERONAUTICS, influence exists for till time. The result is that the lift and moment reach steady-state values in a fini

In either case, however, the time responses in lift and moment to the step changes in (Y and q are termed “indicial functions.” Figure 4 illustrates typical subsonic and supersonic indicial lift responses to

29、a step change in the angle of attack. FIGURE S.-Typical indicial lift responses to step changes in angle of attack. It is obvious that the time history of the wing motion during a short-period oscillation may be broken down into an infinite number of infinitesimally small step changes in the angle o

30、f attack and step changes in the angular velocity. The summation of the indicial lift and moment for these steps then yields the total lift and moment at any prescribed time. In figure 5, the mechanics of the procedure are illustrated for an arbitrary angle-of-attack variation. Here, the given angle

31、-of-attack variation is replaced by a number of small step changes. Within each step the corresponding response in lift is shown plotted for convenience. It is then apparent that the total lift at time t is equal to the sum of the increments of lift in each step at time t. As indicated by the leader

32、s, however, it is clear that the increments of a FIGURE 5.-Illustration of superposition process. lift for the various steps at time t are equivalent to incre- ments in the first step at time C-t;. Alternatively, then, the total lift at time t can be written as CL(t.(t)=CL,(t)a(0)+) $ (t;)At; (1) 0

33、After a transformation of variables, t-ti=r and letting the increment of time approach zero, equation (1) can be re- written in a form of Duhamels integral (see, e. g., ref. 9) A similar procedure is carried out for the angular velocity variation, whereupon the total lift coefficient at the prescrib

In the following sections, however, the application of equation (3) is restricted to harmonic motions having a s

35、ingle degree of freedom. The reasons for this restriction are two-fold: first, the motions of a statically stable aircraft in response to a disturbance are most generally of a harmonic nature; and second, such a restriction permits an assessment of the influence of the time rate of the airfoil motio

APPLICATION OF INDICIAL FUNCTIONS TO HARMONIC PITCHING OSCILLATIONS Consider first a pure sinusoida, pitching oscillation, the angle of attack being zero throughout the motion. The flight path for such a motion has been illustrated in figure 2 (4. In this ca

It has been shown

43、by these authors that with proper inclusion in the equations of motion of these coefficients, the deteriora- tion of damping in the short-period mode actually occurring for aircraft flying at speeds near the speed of sound can be successfully predicted. The consequences of the assump- tions involved

44、 in the classical dynamic-stability theory will be more evident from a brief review of the equation of motion and boundary conditions for the single-degree-of- freedom rotary oscillations of a rigid wing flying at constant supersonic speed. At the very outset, the assumption is generally made that t

On that portion of the wing which has emerged, region in figure 12, the loading has already reached its steady-state value. Notice that in this region the characteristic tip Mach cone has already formed.
