15、 develop separated flow with reat-tachment around the leading and side edges of the wing, has been the subject of studiesfor many years and has had varying degrees of success. Polhamus in references 1, 2,and 3 provided a method by which the effects of separated flow around a sharp leadingedge on lif

Hence, current lifting-surface computer pro-grams which estimate leading-edge suction are useful in predicting the leading-edge sep-aration effects on the forces.Provided by IHSNot f

17、or ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-The effects of side-edge separation on the aerodynamic characteristics have beenestimated by determining the attached flow side force and then employing a “suctionanalogy“ similar to that used at the leading edge. This con

18、cept was developed and cor-related with experiment and other methods in reference 4. The procedure employed inreference 4 is based on a modified Multhopp method which is outlined in reference 5.The technique of reference 4 is well suited to single, isolated planforms. However,for lifting planforms i

19、n combinations or for flat body-wing configurations, the vortex-lattice method (i.e., ref. 6) is better suited because its elemental panel representationprovides a straightforward extension to the more complex configurations.This paper is concerned with the extension of the vortex-lattice method of

Others have published similarwork recently (refs. 7, 8, and 9, for example) but they do not provide comparisons ofalternate paneling arrangements or convergence studies with their analyses. Thus, thepurposes of this paper are (1) to pr

36、ed by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-In the numerical determination of the side force, it is realized that computationaltime savings could be made with the utilization of a swept horseshoe vortex system. Thesavings are due to the vortex filament

37、 length and the net downwash associated with theright trailing filament of a swept horseshoe vortex being the same as those for the lefttrailing filament on the adjoining inboard swept horseshoe vortex. However, the sweptbound vortex may lead to local and overall errors in the side force, just as it

38、 did forleading-edge thrust 1 (ref. 10). This potential problem will be investigated although itshould be less serious than that for thrust because in the side-force computation, thebound vortex interaction with the net downwash at its midpoint will only contribute a por-tion to the total side force

39、, rather than the entire result.To assess the importance of the inclusion of the swept bound vortex, numericalstudies are presented in the next section. They are based on paneling the wing in vari-ous ways to emphasize the influence of the bound vortex differently.The pitching-moment contribution ab

Onereasonfor computingtheside-edge suction force in this manner, rather thanwith the methodpresented in refer-ence 8, is that, in the application of the methodof reference 8 to a croppeddiamondwing,the entire side-edge
