Prof. Dr. Serkan Ozgen Date: 23.11.2006 oa € pts) Explain why the maximum L/D ratio of an airplane increases with creasing AR? Explain why the wing weight also increases with increasing AR. Do notuse formulas, use your own words for the explanation. by (8} pts) Consider the H-tail configuration (see figure). List at least two (Ledvgpttages and disadvantages of using such a tail configuration. A an fo: 43 | . Tea \ x ws Give at least three reasons why fighter airplanes usually have small 1s with low aspect ratio. (op pts) List at least two ways of minimizing induced drag. Discuss the relative advantages and disadvantages of these. i j 2. Consider a two-seat jet trainer aircraft with the following characteristics: Weight, We = 11500 Ib, > Wing area, + Wing span, b = 30 ft; Oswald's span efficiency factor, e = 0.8 Max. Thrust, T = 4000 Ib, 7 Engine weight = 1220'b, ».-- Parasite drag coefficient, Cpo = 0.02, a) (24 pts) Calculate the maximum lift ce of this airplane, if the landing runway distance is to be less than 2800 ft,|takeoff runway distance is to be less than 4000 ft and the sfall speed to be legs fHan110 knots all sea level. b) (24 pts) Make a trade analysis for wingvarea (hand thrust (T). Determine the impact of these two variables on the také-of¥~gross weight by increasing (or decreasing) each of them 25 % assuming all other parameters remaining constant. Also assume that the engine weights vary linearly with their thrust. c) (26 pts) What is the thrust increase necessary to increase the speed of this airplane by 10°% by keeping all other parameters constant? How much will the takeoff gross weight of the airplane be influenced with the new engine? i Good luck! / Co L748 on | 2 po 4 2941 seus Satohons of MTA [US hen the AR ineweres the AA of Ap verbete La fiche gee demene oe meet we Dhaene Ler dade Ahad ad Loe ed dng Ce chad dhe mene Bangle Hie CL) feo goaen sponte oma atten 4 fewer pedeud bag moe Laer well do) Mane LID imuncss oe rope natin pawwenes CAR).
