The author is grateful to the following companies for supplying data on airplane drag and on airplane stability and control characteristics: Cessna Aircraft Company Beech Aircraft Corporation The Boeing Company McDonnell Douglas Corp. Lockheed Aircraft Corp. Gates Learjet Corporation Northrop Corporation SIAI Marchetti A significant amount of airplane design information has been accumulated by the author over many years from the following magazines: Interavia (Swiss, monthly) Flight International (British, weekly) Business and Commercial Aviation (USA, monthly) Aviation Week and Space Technology (USA, weekly) Journal of Aircraft (USA, AIAA, monthly) The author wishes to acknowledge the important role played by these magazines in his own development as an aeronautical engineer. Aeronautical engineering students and graduates should read these magazines regularly. This part of the Airplane Design series presents ra~ pid methods for estimating drag, lift, pitching moment, installed thrust and power data as well as stability, control and hingemoment derivatives. In preparing this part much use has been made of the USAF DATCOM, a most impressive and useful document which should be available in all aeronautical engineering design offices and libraries. Part VI Page xxix SSS wWaynos *ZS3iunNd> x» XX“ H3NHOS Page xxx Part VI 1, INTRODUCTION The purpose of this series of books on Airplane Design is to familiarize aerospace engineering students with the design methodology and design decision making involved in the process of designing airplanes. The series of books is organized as follows: PART I: PRELIMINARY SIZING OF AIRPLANES PART II: PRELIMINARY CONFIGURATION DESIGN AND INTEGRATION OF THE PROPULSION SYSTEM PART III: LAYOUT DESIGN OF COCKPIT, FUSELAGE, WING AND EMPENNAGE: CUTAWAYS AND INBOARD PROFILES PART IV: LAYOUT DESIGN OF LANDING GEAR AND SYSTEMS PART V: COMPONENT WEIGHT ESTIMATION PART VI: PRELIMINARY CALCULATION OF AERODYNAMIC, THRUST AND POWER CHARACTERISTICS PART VII: DETERMINATION OF STABILITY, CONTROL AND PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS: FAR AND MILITARY REQUIREMENTS PART VIII: AIRPLANE COST ESTIMATION: DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT, MANUFACTURING AND OPERATING The purpose of PART VI is to present a systematic approach to the prediction of drag, installed power and thrust, lift, pitching moment and other important stabi- lity and control data needed in preliminary design. The methods presented in this volume are meant to be used in conjunction with Preliminary Design Sequence II as outlined in Chapter 2 of Part II of this series. For that reason these methods are sometimes referred to as Class II methods. The preceeding Class I methods are co- vered in Part I and Part II of this series and are meant to be used with Preliminary Design Sequence I as outlined also in Chapter 2 of Part II. In Chapter 2 some important definitions relating to flight regime and reference geometries are discussed. Chapter 3 presents different ways by which airplane drag polars can be represented by simple mathematical models. Several examples are given. Chapter 4 presents a method to predict the component drag breakdown and the total drag of airplanes. Example drag data are given in Chapter 5. Part VI Chapter 1 Page 1 Methods for predicting installed thrust and power characteristics are presented in Chapter 6. Example thrust and power data are given in Chapter 7. Chapter 8 contains methods for predicting lift and pitching moment characteristics of airplanes with and without (mechanical) flaps. Example data are given in Chapter 9. Prediction methods for stability, control and hinge moment derivatives are presented in Chapter 10 with example data provided in Chapter 11. To make the use of this book easy on students, a USER's GUIDE is presented in Chapter 12. Aeronautical engineering students should use this guide to prevent wasting a lot of time chasing non-existing problems. Appendix A contains data on the atmosphere. Appendix B contains data needed in the estimation of areas and volumes. Part VI Chapter 1 Page 2 2, IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS In this text frequent use is made of: 2.1 Flow regimes defined in terms of Mach number 2.2 Reference geometries defined in terms of areas and lengths The purpose of this chapter is to define the physi- cal and the mathematical meaning of these terms. 2,1 BLOW REGIME DEFINITIONS In this text the following flow regimes are used: 2.1.1 Subsonic Flow Regime 2.1.2 Transonic Flow Regime 2.1.3 Supersonic Plow Regime 2.1.1 Subsonic Plow Regime In terms of Mach number the subsonic flow regime is defined as: SUBSONIC: 0 < M < 0.60 It is assumed that in this flow regime all compres- sibility effects are negligible. The reader should keep in mind that whether or not compressibility effects are negligible depends not just on the free stream Mach num- ber but also on thickness and on angle of attack. Where the subsonic flow regime ends depends on the values of critical and drag divergence Mach numbers: The critical Mach number is that free stream Mach number for which a condition of M=1 is first reached somewhere on the airplane. Figure 2.1 shows how the critical Mach number varies with airfoil shape and with airfoil lift coefficient (or angle of attack). The drag divergence Mach number is that free stream Mach number for which: Boeing definition: the drag coefficient first reaches a value of 0.0020 above that in the subsonic flow regime.

Figure 2.2 depicts these definitions graphically. Experience shows that there is no significant difference between these definitions. The following equations may be used to estimate the drag divergence Mach number for airfoils: For modern (aft-loaded) airfoils: Mpp = 0-95 - (t/edga, ~ ©4/10 (2.1) ‘DD x For NACA airfoils: Myp = 0.90 ~ (tle) a, - ¢,/10 (2.2) Figures 2.3 may be used to estimate the drag diver- gence Mach number of uncambered wings. For wings with camber, determine the lift coefficient for zero angle of attack, C, . Then use Figures 2.3 with: ‘0 =¢ +, (2.3) & “Factual Yo Reference 8 contains a wealth of information on the effect of the geometry of fuselages and wings on critical and on drag divergence Mach number. 2.1.2 Transonic Flow Regime In terms of Mach number the transonic flow regime is defined as: ¢, TRANSONIC: 0.60 ¢ M ¢ 1.2 Mathematically speaking, the transonic flow regime starts at the critical Mach number. Physically speaking, the transonic flow regime starts at the drag divergence Mach number. In the transonic flow regime compressibility effects cannot be neglected. The reader should keep in mind that compressibility effects in this flow regime are a strong function of thickness ratio (for lifting surfaces such as wings, pylons and tails) and of cross sectional area dis- tributions. The sweep angle of lifting surfaces is also an important parameter. Part VI Chapter 2 Page 5 FOR UNCAMBERED WINGS ONLY !

Reference 8 contains information on the variation of drag with Mach number in the transonic speed regime below =1. Reference 9 should be used for the estimation of drag in the transonic flow regime above M=1. For applications of the area rule concept, ref.10 should be consulted. 2.1.3 Supersonic Flow Regime In terms of Mach number the supersonic flow regime is defined as: SUPERSONIC: 1.2 FROM REFLIZ COURTESY : L.

Note that: C) " = 0.0140, ‘min which occurs at C, = 0.27. Unin Note, that for an uncambered airplane Eqn. (3.6) reduces to Eqn. (3.5) since in that case: C, = 0 and: ‘n in K'' + K' = 1/nAe (no camber only!) (3.7) For airplanes flying at relatively high angles of attack, the drag polars deviate significantly from the parabolic shape. This is caused by flow separation re- sulting in a steep rise in pressure drag. In that case the polar is modelled as: cy +k min + Kg (Cy - o, (c= 2 (3.8) Figure 3.5 illustrates a drag polar with this type of behavior.

Values for cg are found in Figure 4.20. 4.3.4 The Area Rule Concept The methods for predicting wave drag in Sub-sections 4.3.2 and 4.3.3 are valid only if the wing/fuselage/en- pennage combination has a ‘smooth’ cross sectional area distribution. Figure 4.30 illustrates how a cross secti- onal area distribution of an airplane is obtained. Whitcomb showed in Reference 17 that the wave drag of an airplane in the transonic speed range is roughly equal to the wave drag of its ‘equivalent body of revolu- tion. Figure 4.30 also shows the equivalent body of re- volution for the same airplane. Note the irregularities in the equivalent body of revolution. Minimum wave drag can be achieved by designing the wing/fuselage/empennage cross sectional area distribution in such a way that its equivalent body of revolution ap- proximates the so-called Sears-Haack bodies. This design concept (due to Whitcomb) is referred to as area ruling. Three types of Sears-Haack bodies are depicted in Figure 4,31: Type I: used to minimize wave drag for a given length and volume. used to minimize wave drag for a given length Type I and diameter. Type III: used to minimize wave drag for a given diameter and volume. Part VI Chapter 4 Page 57 CONSTRUCT 'EQUIVALENT! BODY OF REVOLUTION SO THAT S; = rr AIRPLANE EQ. 3 4 2 Zs ZZ COPIED FROM: REF.18.

GEN enctH avor Tren Gy» (2)* — uenartaon rem cys see(<)* maven Part VI Chapter 4 Page 58 The wave drag coefficients and volumes for the three Sears-Haack bodies are also given in Figure 4.31. Note: these wave drag coefficients apply to super- sonic Mach numbers only! To a first order of approxima- tion these supersonic wave drag coefficients are indepen- dent of Mach number. It is clear that to minimize wave drag it is essen- tial to distribute any given volume over as much length as possible. However, in airplane layout design several constraints are encountered. Typical constraints are: a) the airplane may not exceed a given length: this constraint is nearly always encountered in carrier based airplanes. Supersonic transports may encounter length limitations for reasons of ground maneuvering, gate space restrictions and hangar size limits. b) the airplane must have a minimm total volume: this constraint comes about because of the need to carry fuel, payload,, fixed equipment, landing gear and engines. Even airplane structures need a minimum amount of volume. c) the airplane must have a minimm outside diame- ter: this constraint arises because of the need for cabin volume, engine size and/or payload size. Because of these constraints on length, volume and diameter it may be necessary to strike a compromise in the layout design of transonic and supersonic airplanes. From the previous discussion it is obvious that ear- ly knowledge of volume requirements inside the airplane is essential. The airplane layout design procedures of Chapters 4-9 in Part II must be augmented with the fol- lowing step-by-step procedure: Step 1: Tabulate preliminary volume requirements as indicated in Table 4.1. Tables 4.2 give data for the volumetric requirements of the elements listed in Table 4.1. It is essential that the ‘critical’ (= minimm required) length for all elements is identified. The reader should use judgement in deciding where element critical lengths may overlap. Step 2: Prepare a preliminary airplane layout which includes all elements listed in Step 1. Do not forget to cross-check with the design layout procedures of Chapters 4-9 of Pt.II.

Streamtube: that volume taken up by inlets, engines, tailpipes, afterburners and nozzles. Wasted volume: it is not possible to package a fuselage without wasted volume. Many system components require accessibility: this adds volume. The following equation is suggested for computing wasted volume: 1/2 v = 0,212{3 (Vol. gyg/lg) + 2.7(Volgygle) 7} waste where: Vol,,, = sum of all previous volume requirements. 1g is the overall fuselage length Total_volume: = Vole. + Vyaste’ Inlet stream tube: that volume taken up by the inlet up to the engine compressor faces. This volume is subtrac- ted from the total volume in arriving at the net cross- sectional area distribution. Part VI Chapter 4 Page 62 Step 3: Translate the preliminary airplane layout into a cross sectional area plot as shown in Figure 4.32. Make certain that all volume- tric and critical length requirements of Step 1 are satisfied. Step 4: Decide which of the Sears-Haack bodies of Figure 4.31 best fit the cross sectional area plot of Step 3. Overlay the selected Sears-Haack cross sectional area plots. Step 5: Adjust the fuselage geometry until the air- plane cross sectional area plot MINUS its inlet capture area conforms to the selected Sears-Haack shapes. Figure 4.33 shows an example of a cross sectional area distribution of a fighter airplane. Figure 4.34 shows several critical cross sections. Note that the ‘bump’ in the area distribution due to the canopy are eliminated by indenting the local fuselage cross section. The Dassault Rafale is an example of a fighter airplane where this has also been done. Note that the ‘bump’ in the area distribution due to the wing has been eliminated also by indenting the local fuselage cross section. The result is a ‘coke-bottle’ shape. Further examples of this coke-bottling are shown in Figures 3.54 - 3,56 in Part II. Airplanes which fly at high subsonic Mach numbers may require so-called ‘local’ area ruling. Examples of ‘local’ area ruling are found in the Boeing 737-300 wing/ nacelle region, in the Northrop F-5 wing/tiptank region and in the DC-10 center-engine/vertical tail region. In using ‘local’ area ruling, only local cross sec- tional area distributions are constructed. When these local cross sectional area distributions are ‘smooth’, no major problems in dragrise at high subsonic Mach numbers should be expected. Part VI Chapter 4 Page 63 £.63 STEPS VERT.

This lift causes induced drag. In this text, the lift carried by empennage surfaces is split into two components: 1, Lift caused by the reference incidence setting of any empennage surface: the induced drag caused by this lift is accounted for in this paragraph. 2. Lift caused by the requirement to ‘trim’ the air- plane at a particular center of gravity location: the induced drag caused by this lift is referred to as ‘trim’ drag: see Section 4.10. If the empennage employs the so-called butterfly arrangement, the projection method of page 206 in Part II may be used to arrive at the ‘equivalent horizontal’ and the ‘equivalent vertical’ tail surface. The amount of lift on a horizontal tail surface can Part VI Chapter 4 Page 67 be computed from: = (a - (4.46) by, ‘Sh *h with: oy, a(1 - de/da) + in (4.47) The amount of lift on a canard surface can be computed from: C=C, (ay - ) (4.48) L L c °, © c be with: a, = a(1 + de./da) + i, (4,49) Methods for predicting downwash ¢, upwash e, and the zero lift angles of attack, a, anda, , are presented L in Chapter 10. ° In airplanes with a fixed horizontal tailplane, i, is usually zero.

Since horizontal tails and canards are normally not twisted, their drag-due-to-lift may be computed from Eqn. (4.8) with e,=0, to yield: cp = (Cy ‘emp This equation applies to an airplane equipped with one horizontal tail and with one canard.

If the airplane is sideslipping over an angle 8, this angle p should be considered as the angle of attack of the vertical tail. A modified version of Eqn. (4.51) may then be used to calculate the drag due to lift (in sideslip) of the vertical tail. 4.4.2 Transonic Empennage Drag Coefficient The transonic empennage drag coefficient may be found from: c : (4,52) emp L, where: (Cy 4 7 empennage zero-lift drag coefficient 6, of the number i empennage surface, aod see 4.4.2.1. ), = empennage drag coefficient due to lift ‘em of the number i empennage surface, os see 4.4.2.2. 4.4.2.1 Empennage zero-lift drag coefficient In the transonic speed range the empennage zero-lift drag coefficient is found froi Part VI Chapter 4 Page 69 + (Cy dts d,/S (4.53) mi em yave el at M=0.6 where: (Cy i 7 empennage drag coefficient due to © emp friction of the number i empennage surface at M-0.6.

Part VI Chapter 4 Page 71 4.5 NACELLE/PYLON DRAG COEFFICIENT PREDICTION Methods for predicting nacelle/pylon drag are presented as follows: 4.5.1 Isolated Nacelle/Pylon Drag Coefficient This method is applicable in all speed regimes considered in this text. 4.5.2 Installed Nacelle/Pylon Drag Coefficient Increment This method applies only in the subsonic speed regime and provides the ‘interference’ drag increment due to nacelle/pylon instal lations. It is assumed that this ‘interference’ drag increment is independent of Mach number as long as the appropriate area ruling is used in the transonic and supersonic speed ranges. See Sub-section 4.3.4 for details on area ruling. 4.5.3 Windmilling Drag and Propeller Drag Coef- ficients This method provides the drag increase caused by engine and/or propeller stoppage. These methods should be applied as follows: 1: Determine the subsonic installed drag incre- ment due to the nacelle or the nacelle/pylon combination from Sub-section 4.5.2. Again: this drag increment represents the interfe- rence drag of the installation. Step 2: Determine the drag increments due to tran- sonic and supersonic operations from Sub- section 4.5.1 which assumes the nacelle/py- lon to be isolated. 3: Add the transonic and/or supersonic incre- ments from Step 2 to the nacelle/pylon in- terference drag obtained in Step 1. 4: For windmilling and/or propeller drag incre- ments use Sub-section 4.5.3. Add this drag increment to the drag obtained in Step 3. Part VI Chapter 4 Page 72 5.1 tol led The nacelle/pylon drag coefficient may be computed from: = (4,58) Pap where: C) = nacelle drag coefficient, see 4.5.1.1. n C) = pylon drag coefficient, see 4.5.1.2. P 4.5.1.1 Nacelle drag coefficient The nacelle drag coefficient is found from: Cy = SUM, (Cy ) (4.59) Dy Sopa The number i equals the number of nacelles on the airplane. Each nacelle drag coefficient, (C, ), is com ‘n puted with the method of Section 4.3. This assumes that a nacelle can be treated as if it is a (small) fuselage. Note: nacelles will generate lift when placed at an angle of attack. Local nacelle angle of attack should be expressed as: +a, t ey (4,60) wing angle of attack i, = nacelle incidence angle, see Pigure 4.35. nacelle upwash and downwash angle. This depends on where the nacelle is intalled on the airplane. Figure 4.36 illustrates two possibilities. €, > 0 for upwash and €,< 0 for downwash. The nacelle up- or downwash angle follows from: ®n =(de,/da)a (4,61) where: de,/da is computed with the methods described in Chapter 8, Part VI Chapter 4 Page 73 WING CHOBD LINE a) NACELLE ON WING UPWASH!

(4.59) there will be extra drag caused by engine or propeller wind- milling. If a propeller is stopped, there will be extra drag due to that. Sub-section 4.5.3 deals with such cases. 4.5.1.2 Pylon drag coefficient The pylon drag coefficient may be found from: “py = SUM; (Cp 4 (4,62) It will be assumed here that the drag behavior of a pylon can be modelled as that of an empennage. For this reason, values for (C, ), may be obtained by using the method of Section 4.4. For vertically installed pylons (see Figure 4.37), the pylon should be treated as a vertical tail: the drag prediction method of Section 4.4 may be used. For horizontally installed pylons (see Figure 4.38) the pylon should be treated as a horizontal tail or as a canard: use the drag prediction method of Section 4.4. NOTA BENE 1: Nacelles installed in the proximity of wings (see Figure 4.37a) must be installed so that they are at zero local sideslip angle in the local flowfield. This results in the need for ‘toe-in’ for nacelles such as in the Boeing 747 series airplanes: see Figure 4.39. NOTA BENE 2: The methods of 4.5.1.1 and 4.5.1.2 ap- ply to all speed regimes. However, in the transonic and supersonic speed regimes the method is valid only as long as the nacelle/pylon combination is included in the area- ruling process described in Sub-section 4.3.3. Note: the nacelle stream tube should not be included in this area ruling process. 4.5.2 Installed Nacelle/Pylon Drag Coefficient Increment Sub-section 4.5.1 provides a method for predicting the drag coefficient, C) due to isolated nacelle/pylon combinations. np In the following, a method for computing the interference drag increment caused by a nacelle/pylon Part VI Chapter 4 Page 75 Part VI Chapter 4 Page 76 installation is presented. The method is broken down into three parts: :5.2.1 Wing/nacelle interference drag coefficient 4.5.2.2 Puselage/nacelle interference drag coefficient 4.5.2.3 Cooling drag coefficient increment Which drag increment should be accounted for depends on the airplane configuration. 4.5.2.1 For turboprop and for piston-prop nacelle/wing installations the interference drag coefficient is found from: i (4,63) = 0,036 (cb /s)(Ac, + Ac. nn 1 1.

This reference area is defined in Figures 4.54-4.60. For most landing gear types: S,.,, = byxD,, where Sgear b, is the tire width and D, is the tire diameter. p = a factor which accounts for the variation of gear drag with lift. Figure 4.61 gives a me- thod for determining this factor p. Airplanes can have a number of different types of landing gear. The summation over i landing gears in Eqn. (4.76) indicates this. Figures 4.54 - 4,60 should be used as follows: 1 Figures 4.54 and 4.55 apply to non-retractable (= fixed) landing gears attached to wing or fuselage.

Note that a bulge fairing will add to the cross sectional area of the fuselage and therefore will reduce the ‘effective’ fuse- lage slenderness ratio parameter l¢/dg. This causes an increase in fuselage drag as given by Eqn. (4.30).

Strut and antenna drag may be estimated by assuming these to be like small wings. For surface gap drag the reader should consult Ref.8. For estimation of extra inlet drag the method of Sub-section 6.2.4 may be used. For estimation of drag due to exhaust nozzles, see Section 6.3.

The resulting reduction in friction drag is very significant and should be accounted for in any realistic drag prediction procedure. The methods presented in Sections 4.3 through 4.12 assume that the boundary layer is turbulent. To adjust the airplane zero-lift drag coefficient downward due to the existence of laminar flow, the following procedure is recommended: If laminar flow is expected to occur naturally (natural laminar flow, also called NLF) start at Step 1. If laminar flow is being forced, by suction or by blowing, start at Step 2. Step 1: Determine which components of the airplane are likely to experience NLF. In preliminary design the following criteria for the existence of NLF may be used: M < 0.65 Ap < 15 degrees c, « 0.65 Ry < 107 design Note: by careful design it is possible to extend these criteria. Use of advan- ced airfoil design codes is recommen- ded to verify that NLF is practical. Step 2: Divide the surface area of all airplane components which according to Step 1 will have a certain amount of NLF in two parts: s., and S, . wetiam wetturb Figure 4.78 shows how these wetted areas are defined for a wing and for a fuselage res- pectively. Step 3: For a wing or for an empennage surface, use Equation (4.6), but replace the term: (4, 86) (Cy 8. 18) by £,, wet, Part VI Chapter 4 Page 113 CWwram 7 LAMINAR FLOW | UPPER SURFACE ——- 1 TRANSITION TURBULENT Flow t LOWER SURFACE TRANSITION TRANSITION WETTED ABEA OF THE WING IN THE LAMIVAB FLOW BESION Swetgy, = WETTED ABEA OF THE FUSELAGE tAM IN THE LAMINAR FLOW REGION 4,78 Lengths and Reference Areas Part VI Chapter 4 Page 114 «uc, £, Whi Por a fusela: the te: uc, feu (c, -¢ £, £. £05) 35 fusiyy where: Ce with: Se with: te s, NOTES: 1, This p speed Part VI Ry, fUSj am + (Ce DS, £, Ww, us wet, am “eur “lam ‘cur © fuselage or for a body similar to a ge, use Equation (4.30), but replace rm: d 8 s 18) by: (4.87) wettus ds, Ws wet. £08) am +(e 8, Feus, Weteus tur is the turbulent wing skin fric- tion coefficient as found on p.23 ‘tur of this text. 1/2 c. £, Wlam =1.328/R, Ny lam fw (4, 88) Ry (4,89) “lam = pUjc, am ¢ wy... 48 the wing reference length of lam the laminar part of the wing: see Figure 4.78.

Chapter 4 Page 115 2. This procedure applies only as long as any surface irregularities (steps, wavi- ness and roughness) are within the limits defined in Reference 23. By using laminar flow control (sucking and/or blo- wing) it is possible to achieve laminar flow under con- ditions where natural laminar flow cannot be maintained. References 24 - 26 provide some data on the types of sys- tems needed to achieve controlled laminar flow and on a number of operational considerations. Once such systems are in place, the procedure given above for the adjustment of friction drag would apply ex- cept for the need to account for compressibility on the equations for skin friction coefficient. Reference 27 should be consulted for replacement of Eqns (4.88) and (4.90) by equations which account for compressibility ef- fects in the transonic speed range below M=1.0 This text does not provide a method for accounting for laminar flow in the transonic speed range above M=1.0 nor for the supersonic flow regimes. This does not mean that laminar flow in these speed ranges is not feasible. Research in progress at NASA Langley indicates that in particular in the supersonic flow range extensive laminar flow may be possible. The conditions for which this can be achieved have not yet been firmly established. References 28-30 provide some data on the design of fuselage shapes which are conducive to NLF. Design de- tails such as inspection covers, doors and windshields must receive very careful attention, if laminar flow ca- pability is to be retained after the airplane has been in service for some time!

These data are given in the form of: 5.1 Drag polars 5.2 Equivalent parasite areas 5.3 Oswald's efficiency factors 5.4 Wetted area breakdown examples Finally, once drag data for a new airplane have been computed, they should always be ‘verified’ by comparison against known drag data for similar airplanes.

The reader may ‘reconstruct’ a value for ‘e’ from any drag polar by matching the polar to Equation 5.2. 5.4 EXAMPLES OF WETTED AREA BREAKDOWNS Tables 5.2 and 5.3 present example data for wetted area breakdowns of fighters, commuters, transports and a business jet. Table 5.3 also includes data on the breakdown of equivalent parasite area with the corresponding value of average skin friction coefficient. The reader should always verify any computed wetted area breakdown with known breakdowns for similar airplanes. Any significant differences should be explained! The reader is also reminded of the correlations between total airplane wetted area and airplane take-off weight, provided in Chapter 3 of Part I. These data should be regarded as a source of comparative information.

The reader should recognize the fact that airplane drag polars depend upon the follo- wing factors: A) Flight condition: Mach Number, altitude, lift coefficient (or angle of attack) and Reynold’s number which also depends on a characteristic length. B) External configuration: The external airplane configuration may be influenced by: 1) flap deflection (take-off, climb, cruise, landing or maneuvering 2) landing gear position: up or down (gear well doors open or not?) 3) speed brake position: open or closed 4) external store disposition 5) loading door position: open or closed 6) weapons door position: open or closed 7) cooling flap position: open for take- off, open for climb, or closed 8) propeller control position: feathered, windmilling or normal 9) jet engine condition: windmilling or normal 10) inlet configuration: blow-down doors, ramps, spikes, bleed- and bypass doors 11) control surface deflection for trim (trim drag), with AEO or OEI Drag polars can differ significantly depending on how these factors are selected for any given airplane in any given flight condition. Part VI Chapter 5 Page 135 Part VI 5: 6: Plot the Cy versus a data from the calcula- tions performed with Chapter 4. Plot the C, versus a data for the airplane with the method of Chapter 10. Prom steps 2 and 3 crossplot the C, versus C, polar. Figure 5.23 shows an example of how Steps 2, 3 and 4 are carried out. A) From step 4, determine C, and compute: ‘0 f= cs (5.3) B) Determine the wetted area of your air- plane. The data for doing this are al- ready available from the drag polar calculations performed in Chapter 4. ‘verify’ the computed wetted area break- down with the data of Tables 5.2 or 5.3. Also check the total wetted area against the trend data of Figures 3.22 in Part I. ©) Plot the ‘f' and S,,, data on one of the graphs in figures 5.20-5.22, whichever is applicable. Determine the Cy value for the airplane and judge whether or not the value of Cp is a reasonable one from an ‘aerodynamics technology’ viewpoint. This is done by comparison to other air- planes in the same figure. Plot (C,)? versus Cy, and determine acy/a(c,)? as indicated in Figure 5.23. Compute: e = (na(ac,/dc, )? (5.4) Compare this value of ‘e’ with that for si- milar airplanes in Table $.1. I£ there is a large difference, check the calculations or explain why the airplane might be different!

The assumption will be made that the fol- lowing characteristics of the engine are known: 1. For piston engines: manufacturers shaft horse- power data for a range of altitudes and throttle settings. 2. For gas generators: manufacturers shaft horse- power and thrust data for a range of altitudes, Mach numbers and throttle settings. 3. For jet engines: manufacturers thrust data for a range of altitudes, Mach numbers and throttle settings. These engine manufacturers data (also called unin- stalled data) are based on ideal (teststand) conditions and do not normally include the following effects: A. Effect of the inlet (air induction system) on pressure recovery, on drag and therefore on en- gine performance. Note: A bellmouth inlet system, assuring very high inlet pressure recovery, is frequently used to determine engine manufacturers data. Fig. 6.1 shows a typical teststand arrangement. B. Effect of power extraction (needed to run essen- tial airplane services) on engine performance. Note: Power extraction to run essential engine services ARE normally included in engine manufacturers data. Cc. Effect of the exhaust or nozzle configuration on drag and on engine performance. Note: The engine manufacturer uses a nozzle configuration which is usually different from that preferred by the airframer. See Figure 6.1. The methods presented in this chapter are organized as follows: Part VI Chapter 6 Page 139 6.1 Power extraction requirements 6.2 Inlet sizing and integration 6.3 Exhaust or nozzle sizing and integration 6.4 Prediction of installed power and thrust For a detailed and concise methodology of inlet de- sign and analysis the reader should consult Reference 32.

Part VI Chapter 6 Page 140 6.1 POWER EXTRACTION REQUIREMENTS To operate an airplane in any phase of its mission a certain amount of electrical, mechanical and pneumatic power may be required. These power requirements are nor- mally satisfied by the engines. For that reason they are referred to as power extraction requirements. In some cases power sources other than the propulsion system (for example an APU) are used. The magnitude of power extraction requirements dif- fers from cne airplane to another and from one mission phase to another. In this section a rapid method for estimating power extraction requirements is presented for: 6.1.1 Piston-propeller driven airplanes 6.1.2 Turbopropeller and jet driven airplanes S.1.1 Piston-propeller Driven Airplanes In this type of airplane the following power extrac- tion requirements may be present: + Prech (6.1) where: P,) = the electrical power extraction in shp Pextr ~ Per = the mechanical power extraction in shp Electrical power extraction requirements, P,, follow from the essential electrical services which are required during any given mission phase. To determine electrical power requirements, an ‘electric power load profile’ must be prepared. Using p.320 of Part IV as an example, the reader should prepare an electric power load profile for his airplane. From this electric power load profile the electrical power extraction requirement, P,, is determined as: Pei 7 -00134(VA,15)/ge, in Shp (6.2) el where: VA,,, = the maximum required electrical power in Volt-amperes as obtained from the electric power load profile. rt VI Chapter 6 Page 141 Tgen = 0-9 is the efficiency of the electric power generator(s) which are assumed to be driven off the engine accessory drive pad. Modern generators can achieve efficiencies of 0.90 to 0.95, Lacking a detailed electric power load profile, the Pe) Values suggested in Table 6.1 may be used. The rea~ der should also consult Chapter 7 in Part IV for more in- formation on electrical system power capabilities. Mechanical power extraction requirements, Pi.., de~ pend on the systems which are required for the operation of the airplane in a given mission phase. Examples of such system may be: fuel pumps, hydraulic pumps, cooling fans, heating/ airconditioning system, pressurization system, spray system (in agricultural airplanes). The reader should prepare a list of those systems which require the generation of mechanical power. The total mechanical power required can be written as: P, P, (6.3) mech ~ Pep * Phydr *Pother where: Ps, = the mechanical power required to drive the fuel pumps.

Examples are the Boeing E-3A, the Boeing E-6, the Grumman E-2C and the Lockheed P3v. In those cases large electrical power requirements may exist: 600 kVA in the case of the Boeing E-6! Normally, these power requirements are satisfied by the installation of directly driven generators on the propulsion installation. If these power requirements cannot be satisfied by power extraction from the regular propulsion system separate power sources may have to be installed. Mechanical power extraction requirements, Piooy, may be determined with the method of Sub-section 6.1.1, via a listing of all required mechanical services. Lack- ing a detailed power extraction calculation, the values suggested in Table 6.1 may be used. Pneumatic power extraction requirements, Poneum are determined by those systems which are driven by bleed air form the main engines. Typical of such services are: de-icing and anti-icing systems, heating and aircon- ditioning systems, engine starting systems (for ground start and for air restart), pressurization of fuel tanks, for flap deployment (For example, the B-747 leading edge devices) and for water system pressurization.

The effect of P,,,, as determined from Eqn. (6.6) on installed power or thrust is discussed in Section 6.4. Part VI Chapter 6 Page 146 $,2 INLET SIZING AND INTEGRATION In preliminary design the process of inlet sizing consists of the determination of the inlet area and the shaping of the duct leading from the inlet area to the engine compressor face. The inlet must be sized in such a way that it is ‘matched’ to the airflow requirements of the engine. Figure 6.2 shows a generalized inlet flow situation. Note the following important areas: A,: streamtube cross section at infinity, also called the inlet capture area streamtube cross section at the inlet, also called inlet area or cowl capture area streamtube cross section at the engine station, also called internal area (note that this cross section is determined by the maximim cross sec- tion of the engine plus tolerances for cooling and for installation) A streamtube cross section at the exit or exhaust, also called the nozzle area ‘e Inlet operation is often characterized by the inlet flow ratio, A,/A,- During static ground operation, the inlet flow ratio is infinite. Inlet lip flow separation is a major pro- blem in such a case. Figure 6.3a shows such a Situation. Frequently an auxiliary inlet is required to allow enough air into the inlet. This is done with a variable inlet geometry feature. Figure 6.3a shows several options. the inlet is normal- ly matched so that the flow ratio is in the range of 0.5 to 0.8 The inlet operates at its peak performance (high pressure recovery). Figure 6.3b shows this situation. In some inlets, external surface area is present at points ahead of the inlet: see Figure 6.3c. If external surface area exists ahead of the inlet, the flow ratio is selected to be closer to 1.0 to prevent inlet separation. If no wetted surface area exists ahead of the inlet, the flow ratio is in the 0.5 - 0.8 range. In_a_climb, the inlet delivers more air than the en- gine requires, excess air will be spilled, resulting in Part VI Chapter 6 Page 147 CAPTUSED EXTERWAL Flow 1 STBEAMTUBE COMPRESSOR CARBURETOR OR SUPERCHABGER INTEBNAL Flow HI6H PRESSURE GRADIENTS PROMOTE SEPABATION 0) GROUND OPERATION HIGH LOCAL M — ——ae Ve yeo-8 INCREASING STATIC PRESSU BI C) CRUISE HIGH LOCAL M WATCH DBAG !

Such a situation is shown in Figure 6.3d. If spillage drag be- comes too high, bleedair doors may be required: Fig. 6.34 shows one such option. At_very hich speeds, such as occur in a high speed dive, the flow ratio is much smaller than 1.0. Such low flow ratios, particularly in the presence of large wetted areas in front of the inlet can lead to inlet flow sepa- ration resulting in compressor surge. Figure 6.3e shows such a situation. If an inlet is undersized (such that it does not de- liver enough air to the engine), unsatisfactory engine operation may result, causing deficiencies in thrust and/ or power. The objective of an inlet is to deliver air to the engine such that: 1. The correct amount of airflow is delivered to the engine 2, Pressure losses are minimized: pressure losses reduce thrust 3, Inlet flow distortion is minimized (i.e. as much as possible uniform flow is realized) 4. Inlet flow swirl is minimized or matched to the compressor requirements Fundamentally, two types of inlets exist: 1. Straight through inlets: see Figure 6.4a This inlet type is used for engines with axial flow compressors, one-sided centrifugal flow compressors and supercharged piston engines. 2. Plenum chamber inlets: see Figure 6.4b This inlet type is used for engines with two- sided centrifugal flow compressors and with normally aspirated piston engines. The detailed design of inlets is a strong function of how the engine (s) is (are) being integrated into the airframe. The following subjects will be discussed: Part VI Chapter 6 Page 149 Part VI Chapter 6 Page 150 6.2.1 General inlet arrangements: presents a discus- sion of different types of inlet arrangement 6.2.2 Inlet sizing: presents a rapid method for es- timating the required inlet area, A, 6.2.3 Inlet pressure loss estimation: presents a rapid method for estimating inlet pressure losses 6.2.4 Inlet drag estimation: presents a rapid method for estimating inlet drag Selection of the correct type of inlet and the associated inlet geometry has important consequences to the realism of any proposed airplane design. For that reason, inlet design should receive considerable attention in the early design phases of an airplane.

The information is organized as follows: 1 Piston engine inlets 2 Turbopropeller inlets 3 Jet engine inlets: subsonic 4 Jet engine inlets: supersonic 6.2.1.1 Piston engine inlets Figures 6.5a and 6.5b show several examples of pis- ton engine inlet arrangements. Figures 6.5a show that inlets for normally aspirated piston engines are of the plenum type. Most plenum in- stallations do not completely seal off all air: cooling air must be routed to those engine components which need cooling for proper operation. After taking care of the cooling function the air is dumped overboard, preferably such that drag is not increased. Engines with turbochargers tend to have straight through type inlets as shown in Figures 6. 5b. 2 Figure 6.6 shows several examples of turbopropeller engine (gas generator) inlets. Those shown are all of the straight through type. An example of a plenum type inlet for a turbopropeller installation was shown in Figure 6.4b. The pressure recovery of the so-called concentric inlet (Figure 6.6d) can be strongly influenced by the de- sign of the propeller airfoils which are in front of the inlet. Icing of such inlets is a major problem and re- quires detailed attention in the development of inlet anti- and de-icing systems. See Part IV, Chapter 10 for a general discussion of the icing problem. 6.2.1.3 Jet engine inlets: subsonic Figures 6.7 show several example inlets for subsonic jet engine installations.

Bifurcated inlets (Figure 6.7b) are used primarily in single engine installations with side inlets. Flow characteristics of bifurcated inlets are complicated, es- pecially at high sideslip angles: inlet buzz and reversed flow on one side are phenomena which need to be ‘designed out’ of such inlets. Ref.32 contains more information. Podded nacelle type inlets (Figure 6.7c) have become popular because of easy engine access. When using wing mounted engine pods there is an additional wing weight advantage due to inertial relief. Pitot type inlets (Figure 6.7d) have been applied to many fighter airplanes. They are not influenced by the flowfield of other airplane components. However, they require very long ducts which causes extra weight and loss in pressure recovery. The NACA submerged type inlet shown in Figure 6.7e is not very efficient for use with propulsion installati- ons. However, when used for inlets of auxiliary systems (APU, heating and avionics bay cooling) they are quite acceptable and frequently used. Important Note: Except for pitot and podded nacelle type inlets, all jet engine inlets must be equipped with so-called boundary layer diverters (or b.1. splitters). Figure 6.8 shows two b.1. diverter installations in some detail. If such boundary layer diverters are not used, large pressure recovery losses (thus losses in thrust) will be incurred. A major consideration in jet fighter inlet design is the behavior of the inlet at very high angles of attack and sideslip. Compressor stall and engine surging are easily induced in such conditions. Ref.32 should be con- sulted for data on high angle of attack operation. In subsonic installations it is usually best to keep the inlet as short as possible: long ducts translate into weight and pressure recovery losses. In jet fighters and in jet trainers long ducts cannot always be avoided. Part VI Chapter 6 Page 157 WING. B.L. SPLITTER SEE REF 32 FOR DETAILS ON BL. SPLITTERS (DIVERTERS) Part VI Chapter 6 Page 158 6.2.1.4 Jet engine inlets: supersonic Figures 6.9 show various types of supersonic inlets. Note the boundary layer splitters! Figure 6.10 shows three fundamentally different types of supersonic inlet: Fig.6.10a Pitot inlet Fig.6.10b External compression inlet Fig.6.10c Mixed (or external/interal) compression inlet Pressure recovery in supersonic inlets is a strong function of the number and types of shock employed. The theoretical pressure recovery attainable with oblique and with conical shocks are shown in Figure 6.11. Proper inlet design is extremely critical to super- sonic installations as illustrated in Figure 6.12, Note that the inlet is responsible for 75 percent of the total installed thrust! A long inlet duct in supersonic engine installations is often needed to assure smooth flow dece- leration (to around M=0.4 at the compressor face) and to assure full use of the favorable pressure distribution in the inlet duct. Figure 6.13 shows the effect of Mach number on thrust distribution. Note that at subsonic speeds, the engine itself (including a convergent nozzle) produces virtually all the thrust. Note also, that at supersonic Mach numbers the engine contribution itself can become negative! Supersonic inlets frequently require a considerable amount of variable geometry devices. Examples are shown in Figures 6.13. For more information on the operation of such inlets, see References 12 and 32.

To determine the required inlet area, A, it is first required that the engine air flow requirements be determined. Inlet air for piston engines is required fo: 1. Combustion 2. Cooling The mass flow rate required for a piston engine may be estimated as follows: m= Tomb t Boor (in slugs/sec) (6,10) where: m,,, = the mass flow rate required for combus- tion. It may be estimated froi Reomp 7 (0-000062) (SEP), ag (6.11) where: (SHP) sp (6,12) reqd ~ Preqa where: P,gqq is the horsepower required for the flight condition being analyzed. Part VII contains methods for deter- mining P, gq for a variety of flight conditions. n,, is the propeller efficiency. P Section 6.4 and Ref.15 show how to obtain data for Part VI Chapter 6 Page 165 propeller efficiency. In preliminary design, first ap- proximations are: a, = 0.85 for cruise 0.80 for climb 0,70 for take-off In Equation (6.11) it is assumed that: 1, that the engine efficiency in converting che- mical energy in the fuel to shafthorsepower (SHP) is 30 percent. 2. that the fuel/air ratio used is the stochiome- trically required value. ™eool Its magnitude depends on the type of engine: = the mass flow rate required for cooling. For aircooled airplane engines the mass flow rate required for engine cooling may be estimated from: Moo91 7 0-00056(SHP), 24g in slugs/sec (6.13) where: (SHP),.,q follows from Eqn. (6,12). In preliminary design, SHP,, may be used for (SEP), egg: Detailed methods for estimating m,,,) for aircooled engines are given in References 35 and 36. For liquid cooled airplane engines the required mass flow rate for the radiator depends strongly on the type of liquid cooling used. Chapter 9 in Reference 8 and Reference 37 should be consulted. For preliminary design purposes it is suggested to use Eqn. (6.10) for liquid cooled engines also. Considerable experience with liquid cooled engine installations was obtained in WWII. In many cases it proved possible to design the radiator system in such a way that negligible losses were incur- red. However, this was achieved at a considerable increase in weight and complexity. Part VI Chapter 6 Page 166 Knowing the total air mass flow rate, the size of the required inlet area may be estimated from: A, = m/e0, (6.14) where: m, follows from Eqn. (6.10), p is the air density in slugs/ft® and U, is the steady state airspeed in fps. Note: Eqn. (6.14) is valid for incompressible flow! The reader must determine which conditions for air density, p and airspeed, U,, yield the largest value for inlet area, A. Since zero airspeed represents an anomalie, lift-off speed or climbout speeds are normally used. Extra inlet doors (or cowl flaps) may be required for prolonged static and taxi operations. To minimize the drag caused by momentum loss in the cooling air, careful design of the ducting leading from the inlet to the overboard dumping point is required. References 8 and 38 should be consulted for more details. Reference 39 contains example calculations for inlet area sizing for piston engines. 6.2.2.2 Turbopropeller installations Figure 6.6 shows typical inlet configurations for turbopropeller engines. To determine the required inlet area, A, it is first necessary to determine the engine air flow requirements. Inlet air for turbopropeller engines (also called: gas generators) is required for: 1, combustion and mass flow 2. cooling The mass flow rate for turbopropeller engines may be estimated from: m= 1, gas * "cool (6.15) Part VI Chapter 6 Page 167 where: m,,, = the air flow rate required by the engine for combustion and for mass flow. In a gas gene- rator the mass flow rate is much larger than the air flow required for combustion. Manufacturers engine data normally include the maximum mass flow rate. Reference 31 also lists required mass flow rates for gas generators. Tables 6.6 and 6.7 in Part III list take-off mass flow rates in lbs/sec for a range of turbopropeller engines. In preliminary design, a good approximation is: Moag = (0-00028) (SHEP) (in slugs/sec) (6.16) regd (SHP) agg is given by Bgn.

The reader must determine which conditions for air density, p and airspeed, U, yield the largest value for inlet area Ay: Since zero airspeed represents an anomalie, lift-off speed or climbout speeds are normally used. Extra inlet doors (variable inlet geometry) may be needed for prolon- ged static and taxi operations. 6.2.2.3 Jet engine installations: subsonic Figure 6.7 shows examples of subsonic jet engine inlets. To determine the required inlet area, A, it is first Part VI Chapter 6 Page 168 necessary to determine the engine airflow requirements. Inlet air for jet engines is required for: 1, combustion and mass flow 2. cooling The mass flow rate required for a subsonic jet engine installation may be found from: Ma ~ Mga gas * "cool (6.19) where: m,,, = the air flow rate required for the engine.

Reference 31 also lists those flow rates. Tables 6.8 - 6.11 in Part III list take-off mass flows for a range of jet engines. In preliminary design the following approximation may be used: "gas ~ Kgas"70 where: k,,, = 0.0003 for BPR values of 0 to 1.0 (6.20) 0.0007 for BPR values of 1.0 to 2.0 0.0009 for BPR values of 2.0 to 4.0 0.0011 for BPR values of 4.0 to 6.0 Moo] = the air flow rate needed for cooling. In preliminary design it may be assumed that: Meo91 = 9+ 06% gas (6.21) The required inlet area, A, may be estimated from: AQ = m,/eU, (6.22) where: m, is found from Eqn. (6.19) p and U, are determined by the flight condition. Note: Eqn. (6.22) is valid for compressible flow. Part VI Chapter 6 Page 169 The inlet size for most subsonic airplanes is dictated by low speed requirements. For that reason, Eqn. (6.22) is applicable to preliminary inlet sizing for subsonic jets. 6.2.2.4 a Figures 6.9 and 6.10 show examples of supersonic jet engine inlet installations. Inlet air for jet engines in supersonic installati- ons is required for: 1. combustion and mass flow 2. cooling 3. inlet boundary layer bleed The mass flow rate required for a jet engine in a supersonic installation may be estimated from: = Mas * ™coo1 * ™b1b where: m,, = the air flow rate required for the engine. In jet engines the air flow rate required for com- bustion is much less than that for mass flow. Manufacturers engine data normally include the maximm mass flow, mj,, required by the engine. Refgrence 31 also lists those flow rates. Tables 6.8"- 6,11" list mass flow rate values for a range of engines. Since most supersonic inlets must al- so operate at subsonic speeds, the take-off mass flow rates normally size the inlet area. For this (6.23) reason, Egn. (6.20) may be used for computing m,,.. Meo] 7 the air flow rate needed for cooling. In preliminary design it is acceptable to use: = 0.08 (6.24) Mas Mp) = the air flow rate needed for boundary cool layer bleed in the inlet. Because of the fact that supersonic installations require fairly long inlets, the resulting build-up of boundary layer air must be bled away before it reaches the com- pressor. Figure 6.14 shows such a boundary layer bleed system. The need for boundary layer bleed ¥ see Part I Part VI Chapter 6 Page 170 translates into a need for extra inlet capture area as shown in Eqn. (6.25). The inlet area, A, for a supersonic inlet is as de~ fined in Figure 6.15. The required inlet area, A, for a supersonic jet engine installation may be estimated from: A, = (1.08mq /pU,) (1 + ky) (My ~ 0.87) (6.25) where: ma follows from Eqn. (6.19) p and U, are determined by the flight condition which in the case of a supersonic installation is taken to be the design supersonic cruise condition or the take~ off condition. If the latter results in a larger inlet area than the former, the possibility of using extra in- let doors for subsonic operation must be weighed against ‘oversizing’ the inlet for supersonic conditions.

The method of 6.2.3.3 for sub- sonic jet inlets may be used to estimate pressure losses. 6.2.3.2 Turbopropeller inlets For plenum inlets: For turbopropellers with plenum inlet installations (See Figure 6.6), the pressure losses may be estimated with the plenum inlet method of 6.2.3.3. As shown in Figure 6.6, many turbopropeller instal- lations utilize ‘straight through’ inlets.

The pressure loss in such inlets is a strong function of the absence or presence of boundary layer diverters. Figure 6.8 shows examples of boundary layer diverters.

Inlet pressure recovery and any associated loss in inlet pressure have been discussed in Sub-section 6.2.3. The effect of these losses on installed power and thrust is discussed in Section 6.4. The extra inlet drag discussion is organized as in the following manner: +1 Piston engine inlets +2 Turbopropeller inlets +3 Jet engine inlets: subsonic +4 Jet engine inlets: supersonic 6.2.4.1 Piston engine inlet extra drag In well designed piston engine installations, the inlet extra drag should be negligible. If the inlet is undersized, spillage drag may result. Estimation of in- let spillage drag is discussed in 6.2.4.3. 6.2.4.2 Turbopropeller inlet extra drag In properly designed turbopropeller inlets the inlet extra drag should be negligible. If the inlet is under- sized, spillage drag may result. Estimation of inlet spillage drag is discussed in 6.2.4.3. 6.2.4.3 Jet engine inlet extra drag: subsonic For properly designed subsonic jet inlets the inlet extra drag should be negligible. However, if the inlet is undersized for some flight condition, spillage drag may result.

(6.35). Equation (6.43) applies up to the critical Mach num- ber. To reduce inlet drag above M..4,, it is necessary to shape the inlet lips so that they in fact have proper- ties similar to high speed airfoils. Reference 32 con- tains discussions on inlet lip design at high subsonic Mach numbers. $.2.4.4 Jet engine inlet extra drag: supersonic In the supersonic case there are three sources for extra inlet drag: 1. Spillage drag (called additive drag) 2. Bypass drag 3. Boundary layer diverter drag 4. Boundary layer bleed drag Figure 6.24 shows where these drag types are caused in a supersonic inlet. All three drag types depend on the state of the shock systems in the inlet. Detailed presentations of methods for estimating these drag con- tributions are beyond the scope of this text. Ref.12 contains methods for estimating these drag increments. Since Ref.12 uses A, as the inlet drag reference area, all results must be multiplied by A/S. Part VI Chapter 6 Page 181 Cow!

Note from Fig.6.77 in Part III that in turbofan engines the nozzle area consists of two concentric areas, located at different longitudinal stations. Integration of exhausts and/or nozzles into the air- plane configuration must be done with care! Without such care, major increases in drag can be the result. The information in this section is presented as: 6.3.1 General exhaust/nozzle arrangements 6.3.2 Exhaust/nozzle sizing 6.3.3 Estimation of exhaust/nozzle extra drag The reader should also refer to Part III, Chapter 6 for examples of engine exhaust/nozzle installations. 6.3.1 General Exhaust/Nozzle Arrangements The purpose of this sub-section is to present exam- ples of exhaust/nozzle configurations which are being used in a number of airplanes. The information is organized as follows: 3.1.1 Piston engine exhausts +2 Turbopropeller exhausts 1.3 Jet engine nozzles: subsonic 1.4 Jet engine nozzles: supersonic 6.3.1.1 Piston engine exhausts Figure 6.5 shows several examples of piston engine exhaust configurations. In many older installations the engine exhaust is ‘dumped’ overboard in the manner shown in the ‘upper’ Figure 6.5a: this is very inefficient and causes extra drag. A lower drag installation is the one Part VI Chapter 6 Page 183 shown in the ‘lower’ Figure 6.5a. Figure 6.25 shows the difference between a ‘low drag’ and ‘high drag’ case. The reader must keep in mind that lowering drag is not always good. If the lower drag is obtained at the cost of increased weight and complexity, a ‘desian trade study must provide the information on basis of which the decision is made to proceed one way or the other. The installations of Figures 6.5b represent modern concepts which take maximum advantage of the momentum ex- change between inlet, combustion process, cooling requi- rements and exhaust. 6.3.1.2 Turbopropeller nozzles Figure 6.6 shows several examples of turbopropeller engine (gas generator) exhaust installations. Note the trend toward exhausting ‘parallel’ to the local stream. In many contemporary installations the exhaust pipes are arranged as shown in Figure 6.26. This creates much extra drag. The ‘design trade study’ comments made under 6.3.1.1 also apply here! 6.3.1.3 Jet engine nozzles: subsonic Figure 6.7 shows several example of nozzle instal- lations for subsonic jet engines. Note that all nozzles are of the convergent type. In subsonic flow, convergent nozzles are the only efficient nozzle configuration. 6.3.14 : Figure 6.27 shows a typical supersonic exhaust con- figuration. Depending on the flight Mach number of the airplane the nozzle should have a different geometry. Figure 6.28 illustrates the effect of flight condition on desired nozzle configuration. Note the convergent/diver- gent shape of nozzles at supersonic speeds. The integration of nozzles into the after body of a supersonic airplane is particularly critical to drag. Pigure 6.29 shows a number of nozzle/airframe integration concepts with commentary about the effect on drag. Here also, the consequence of weight, cost and complexity must be weighed against aerodynamic efficiency. 6.3.2 Exhaust/Nozzle Sizing The purpose of this sub-section is to present rapid Part VI Chapter 6 Page 184 \ get ( SUUPSTeEAM ; i” SLUPETREAM 1 i PooR COPIED FROM REF. 38 COURTESY: T.BINGELIS 6.2 t Part VI Chapter 6 Page 185 NALVES FOR SECONDARY ALB TAKE -OFF S — SUPERSONIC CBUISE er SHOCKS) STOPPED ENGINE REVERSED THADST COPIED FROM REF.12 COURTESY: L.NICOLAL oe L SEE FIG.630 MILITARY ANO MAK REHEAT] FOR Ae AND At Fran S| pe SB) DEFINITION Part VI Chapter 6 Page 186 FAIRING TYPES IRIS NOZZLES ‘BASE UPSTREAM — OF NOZZLE a exit base ar 2 nozzteext | sce Aso 8% FIG. 6.33 LONG — FAIRING EXTRA LONG FAIRING COPIED FROM BEF. 12 COURTESY: L.NICOLAL LINCREASING WEIGHT 6.29 SUBSONIC SUPERSONIC —_—_— as AE he CONVERGING/DIVERGING NO@2LE Part VI Chapter 6 Page 187 methods for the ‘sizing’ of exhausts and/or nozzle exit areas.

The material in this sub-section is presented as: +2.1 Piston engine exhausts +2.2 Turbopropeller nozzles :2.3 Jet engine nozzles: subsonic 12.4 Jet engine nozzles: supersonic 6.3.2.1 Piston engine exhausts The exit size of piston engine exhausts is normally defined by the engine manufacturer. The exit area of the exhaust(s) are dependent on the cross sectional areas of the engine exhaust valve ports. Reference 37 contains detailed descriptions of this aspect of engine design. The airframer may wish to use the exhaust manifold for purposes of heat extraction (by routing cabin air through a heat exchanger which is wrapped around the ex- haust manifold). The airframer may also add noise sup- pressors and/or ejectors to the exhaust stack(s). Refs 38 and 40 as well as Section 6.9 in Part III should be consulted for more details on piston engine exhaust configurations. As a first approximation to the sizing of the total exit area, it is suggested to use an exhaust stack dia- meter given by: 4a, (0.0038)SHP,,,. in inches (6.45) exhst ~ If this diameter becomes too large, it is best to split the exhaust manifold into two or more small stacks. 6.3.2.2 Turbopropeller nozzles Because turbopropellers are used only in subsonic flight conditions, the nozzles are always of the conver- gent type as seen in Figure 6.28. As a first approximation to the sizing of the nozzle exit area, it is suggested to use: a = (0,016)SHP». in inches (6.46) ‘exhnoz In many turboprop engines the nozzle area is divided over two exhausts. Engine manufacturers specify the ex- Part VI Chapter 6 Page 188 haust area on the basis of their performance guarantees. 6.3.2.3 In subsonic applications the exhaust nozzle is near- ly always of the convergent type as shown in Figure 6.28. The exhaust nozzle size and its configuration depend strongly on the following factors: 1. maximum take-off thrust 2. by-pass ratio 3. need for afterburning 4. design Mach number The reader should use engine manufacturers data for exhaust nozzle areas. References 12, 33 and 41 provide more details on the subject of nozzle design. 6.3.2.4 Jet engine nozzles: supersonic The exhaust nozzle size and its configuration depend strongly on the following factors: 1, maximum take-off thrust | 2. by-pass ratio 3. need for afterburning 4. design Mach number The usual nozzle configuration employs variable geo- metry: convergent for subsonic flight and convergent /di- vergent for supersonic flight: see Pig. 6.28. Engine manufacturers data should be used to find the size of the subsonic nozzle exit area. Figure 6.28 can be used to estimate the required exit area of the diver- gent part of the nozzle in its supersonic position. Sizing of the length of the convergent part of the nozzle is not critical as long as it is not too short: a length of twice the entry diameter should be sufficient. Sizing of the length of the diverging part of the nozzle is critical if separation is to be prevented. In preliminary design, a length of at least three times the nozzle throat diameter should be adequate. References 12, 33 and 41 provide more details on the subject of nozzle design. Part vI Chapter 6 Page 189 6.3.3 Estimation of Exhaust/Nozzle Extra Drag In this sub-section rapid methods for estimating the extra drag caused by exhaust and/or nozzle installations. The material is organized as follows: 3.3.1 Piston engines 3.3.2 Turbopropeller engines 3.3.3 Jet engines: subsonic 3.3.4 Jet engines: supersonic 6.3.3.1 Pist Figure 6.31 illustrates the drag increments associa- ted with two piston engine exhaust configurations. In preliminary design it is suggested to use drag increments on the basis of similarity of the proposed installation with those of Figure 6.31. 3.3.2 If the exhaust configuration of a turbopropeller is similar to the one shown in Figure 6.26, the drag incre- ments of 6.3.3.1 may be used as a guide. If the exhaust configuration is similar to those of Figure 6.6, the additional drag penalty caused by the ex- haust may be negligible. 6.3.3.3 ines: sub: For engines mounted in nacelle pods, no additional drag increment is incurred: the nacelle drag is accounted for separately. For engines mounted in a fuselage and exhausting in the rear, extra drag may be incurred. Figure 6.32 shows several nozzle concepts used for subsonic applications. Each concept has a drag penalty associated with it. The drag penalty may be found with the help of Table 6.2. The airplane drag increment due to the nozzle may be found from: acy = (AC noz noztype )Seys/S (6.47) Note: Eqn. (6.47) assumes that only ONE nozzle is at the rear of the fuselage. If more are present, the drag increases accordingly. = fuselage maximim frontal area as defined in Figure 4.17.

Figure 6.33 shows a number of possibilities. The drag increments due to such 'fai- red’ nozzle arrangements may be estimated from Fig. 6.33 Note that longer fairings reduce the drag of the instal- lation. However: a longer fairing also implies a weight increase: as usual, a trade study must be performed to arrive at the correct decision. 6.3.3.4 Jet engines: supersonic The supersonic drag increment of nozzles is strongly dependent on the method used to ‘fair’ the rear end of the airplane, especially in the area of the variable ge- ometry nozzle. No simple method can be given for the es- timation of nozzle drag increment. References 9, 12, 33 and 41 should be consulted for details.

To assure that a propeller meets FAR 36 noise re- quirements, the method of References 46, 47 and 48 may be used. For preliminary design purposes, as long as the propeller tip speed is kept below a Mach number of 0.85, noise certification should not be a problem. Ngear is the gearbox efficiency.

INSTALLED POWER AND THRUST DATA The purpose of this chapter is to present example data for installed power and thrust. The information is presented as follows: 7.1 Propeller driven airplanes 7.2 Jet driven airplanes 1.1 PROPELLER DRIVEN AIRPLANES In this section, two examples will be given for the determination of installed power data for propeller dri- ven airplanes: 7.1.1 Piston propeller driven airplanes 7.1.2 Turbopropeller driven airplanes 1.1.1 Piston Propeller Driven Airplanes The step-by-step procedure of 6.4.1.1 will be used. Step 1: It will be assumed that installed, available power data must be provided for the following flight con- ditions: altitude: 0 - 20,000 ft in increments of 5,000 ft speed: from 0 - 200 kts temperature: standard atmosphere Note: the flight condition range must be compatible with the stated mission objectives of the airplane. Such mission objectives are normally defined in the airplane mission specification. Examples of airplane mission spe- cifications are discussed in Part I. The airplane used in this example is assumed to be a single engine airplane. It has an engine with the unin- stalled characteristics of Figure 6.34. Step 2: Figure 6.34 provides typical engine manufac- turers data for a small piston engine. Notice that the data are given in terms of SHP,, for various altitudes, engine rpm (throttle) and inlet manifold pressure. Step 3: The following input information is required before Eqn. (6.48) can be used: Part VI Chapter 7 Page 203 P, and n extr’ “inl/inc’ "gear > This input information must be determined for each individual installation. In preliminary design the me- thods suggested in 6.4.1.1 may be used. For the current example the following data will be assumed: P, = 4 hp = 0.98 extr "inl/inc Ngear ~ 1-0 (direct drive) a, = 0.88 Warning: propeller efficiency for a fixed pitch pro- peller can be this high for only one flight condition. In this example a variable pitch propeller has been used. Step 4: The determination of P,, now proceeds as follows: For a given altitude and engine rpm, Figure 6.34 is used to find the SHP,,. Using Equation (6.48) it is then possible to compute P,, for each flight condition. Figure 7.1 shows the results of these calculations for the required range of altitudes and flight speeds. Note: for the effect of atmospheric temperature on engine performance, engine manufacturers data should be consulted.

The engines have the uninstalled characteristics of Figure 6.35. Step 2: Figure 6.35 defines the engine manufacturers data for this example calculation. Note that these data are given in terms of SHP,, and T,.

The assumption has been made here that the propeller blades have supercritical airfoil sections and that a propeller pitch angle schedule is used which allows the propeller efficiency to be optimized at all speeds. Step 4: The determination of installed, available power, P,, proceeds as follows: For any given altitude, Figure 6.35 is used to find SHP,, and T,.

The airplane used in this example is assumed to be a twin engine airplane. It has engines with the uninstal- led characteristics of Figure 6.36. The airplane will be assumed to have a straight~ through inlet. Step 2: Figure 6.36 defines the engine manufacturers data for this example calculation.

LIFT AND PITCHING MOMENT PREDICTION METHODS The purpose of this chapter is to present rapid me- thods for the prediction of lift and pitching moment cha- racteristics of airplanes. These characteristics are ex- pressed in terms of the following relationships: *Lift coefficient versus angle of attack *Pitching moment coefficient versus lift coefficient The reason for combining these relationships is the fact that unless an airplane can be trimmed (i.e. flown at zero pitching moment coefficient), it is not useful. Figure 8.1 shows the fundamental C,-a and C.-C, re- lationships which must be determined for any new design. Note the following maximum lift coefficients: Clean airplane (flaps up): Cy ‘ma: x Trimmed with: Flaps down: take-off: Cy - maX no *og ~ *ret landing: C, max, Methods for determining the magnitude of these maxi- mum lift coefficients required to satisfy performance ob- jectives are discussed in Part I as part of the overall Sizing process of airplanes. Class I methods for determining whether or not any given airplane design can achieve certain required maxi- mum lift coefficients are given in Chapter 7 of Part IT. The reader must take note of the fact that the effect of trim requirements was accounted for in Ch.7 of Pt.II by subtracting a ‘token’ increment from the untrimmed maxi- mum lift coefficients. In this chapter Class II methods for estimating trimmed lift coefficients and trimmed ma- ximum lift coefficients are presented. The material is organized as follows: 8.1 Prediction of lift coefficient versus angle of attack 8.2 Prediction of pitching moment versus lift coefficient 8.3 Prediction of trimmed lift and trimmed maximm lift coefficient Part VI Chapter & Page 213 The methods are presented for the subsonic flow range. The reader is referred to specific sections of Ref.9 for those transonic and supersonic effects which are considered beyond the scope of this text. 8.1 PREDICTION OF LIFT COEFFICIENT VERSUS ANGLE OF ATTACK In this section methods for predicting the variation of lift coefficient with angle of attack will be presen- ted as follows: 8.1.1 Airfoil lift and maximm lift: flaps up 8.1.2 Airfoil lift and maximum lift: flaps down 8.1.3 Wing lift and maximum lift: flaps up 8.1.4 Wing lift and maximum lift: flaps down 8.1.5 Airplane lift and maximm lift: flaps up 811.6 Airplane lift and maximum lift: flaps down 8.1.7 Airplane lift in ground effect Power effects on airplane lift Q Ce Co make +> ELAPS UP 2 =z 4 ae ca FLAPS DOWN F “vet tu Conary CLmaxro Co max < / 4 Zs ° = © o Ge Xyee 8,1 Characteristics Part VI Chapter 8 Page 214 aaa A A itt: Figure 8.2 shows the relationship between airfoil lift coefficient and airfoil angle of attack which mst be be determined with the methods to be presented in this Section.

(8.20). Methods for finding spanwise distributions of lift coefficient with angle of attack can be found in: Reference 49: Chapter 1: this method applies to un- swept wings at subsonic Mach numbers. However, by using the cosine rule, this method will work for sweep angles up to 35 degrees. Reference $2: this method applies to arbitrary wing planforms at subsonic speeds. To estimate the maximum wing (flaps-up) lift coefficient, the following step-by-step procedure is suggested: 1: Determine the spanwise distribution of sec- tion maximum lift coefficient. Plot this as shown in Figure 8.48 Note: the section ma- ximum lift coefficient at each spanwise sta- tion is found from Section 81.1.5 or from airfoil data. NOTE: at each spanwise station the Reynold’s number will be different! Step 2: With the help of either Ref.49, Ref.52 or with the help of a spanwise-lift computer program, plot the spanwise variation in lo- cal section lift coefficient for increasing values of wing angle of attack. Note that at some value of a, the spanwise plot of of c, is tangent to the spanwise plot of ¢; as obtained from Step 1.

Key quantities needed in the construction of airplane C, versus a curve are listed, with an indication of where methods for their estimation may be found. The assumption will be made, that an airplane can be considered to consist of three components: a) wing + fuselage b) horizontal tail c) canard Figure 8.60 shows the relative arrangement of these three major components. If an airplane is equipped with pylon mounted nacelles (such as the B-727 and the DC-9), the pylon + nacelle combination should be ‘counted’ as an additional horizontal tail. Figure 8.61 indicates the ‘equivalent’ geometries which should then be used. Figure 8,62 shows a number of important geometric parameters which are used in the calculation of overall airplane lift characteristics. IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS: . In this chapter the following incidence angles are accounted for: i Horizontal Tail: i Wing: i, c These incidence angle are defined in Figure 8.60. In this sub-section, these incidence angles are assumed to be CONSTANT. The effect of trim requirements is con- sidered in Section 8.3. Canard A horizontal tail and a canard may be equipped with a trailing edge control surface: Horizontal tail with elevator, deflection: 6, Canard with canardvator, deflection: 8, In this sub-section, the assumption will be made that all control surface deflection angles are ZERO. The effect of trim requirements which would cause these con- trol surface deflections to be non-zero is considered in Section 8.3.

This energy loss is proportional to the friction drag of the wing-fuselage. b) when a horizontal tail or a canard surface are placed in the slipstream of a propeller, the local dynamic pressure depends on the power absorbed by the propeller and on the distance of the surface from the propeller.

Part VI Chapter 8 Page 280 8.1.7 Airplane Lift in Ground Effect When an airplane operates close to the ground, the downwash and the upwash patterns around its lifting sur- faces change. References 9 and 14 contain physical ex- planations for these effects. In this section, the posi- tion is taken that the effect of the ground on the Cy, versus a behavior of an airplane is a change in angle of attack at constant lift coefficient ( or, vice versa, a change in lift coefficient at constant angle of attack). Figure 8.72 shows this in terms of the ground induced change in angle of attack at constant lift coefficient: Aa,. Note the difference in ground effect on high and on low aspect ratio configurations. This difference is accounted for as follows: -1.7.1 High aspect ratio configurations: transports -1.7.2 Low aspect ratio configurations: fighters NOTE: it will be assumed that the effect of the ground on tail downwash and canard upwash can be neglec- ted as far as overall airplane lift is concerned) The effect of the ground on tail downwash does alter tail lift and because of that the airplane pitching moment is affected: this is accounted for in Section 8.2. 8.1.7.1 High aspect ratio confisurations: transports Figure 8.72a shows the ground induced change in an- gle of attack at constant lift coefficient: 4a,.

Figure 8.80 shows the basic propeller-on-wing geo- metry. The effect of the propeller is to increase the dynamic pressure over the wing behind the propeller.

Key quantities needed in the construction of airplane C, versus C, curve are listed, with an indi- cation of where methods for their estimation are found. The assumption will be made, that an airplane can be considered to consist of three components: a) wing + fuselage b) horizontal tail c) canard Figure 8.60 shows the relative arrangement of these three major components. If an airplane is equipped with pylon mounted nacelles (such as the B-727 and the DC-9), the pylon + nacelle combination should be ‘counted’ as an additional horizontal tail. Figure 861 indicates the ‘equivalent’ geometries which should then be used. Figure 8.62 shows a number of important geometric parameters which are used in the calculation of overall airplane pitching moment characteristics. IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS: In this chapter the following incidence angles are accounted for: Canard: i, i, Horizontal Tail: © These incidence angle are defined in Figure 8.60. In this sub-section, these incidence angles are assumed to be CONSTANT. The effect of trim requirements is con- sidered in Section 8.3. A horizontal tail and a canard may be equipped with a trailing edge control surface: Horizontal tail with elevator, deflection: 6, Canard with canardvator, deflection: 8, In this sub-section, the assumption will be made that all control surface deflection angles are ZERO. The effect of trim requirements which would cause these con- trol surface deflections to be non-zero is considered in Section 8.3.

Figure 8120 is a different way of loo- king at Figure 8.72. In Figure 8.72 the assumption was made that the tail lift (and/or the canard lift) do not contribute significantly to airplane lift change due to ground effect. Although this is usually true to a first order of approximation, that does not mean that the pit- ching moments due to ground induced lift changes on these surfaces are also negligible. It will be assumed that the aerodynamic center of the airplane does not change due to ground effect. In that case, the pitching moment increment due to ground effect on the entire airplane may be estimated from: (Oey g = (8.90) (ac, og + (AC, 2g + (AC, ) ™we 9 Me 9 ™ 9 here: (A( = Xroe 7 X, AC 8.91 where: (AC, Dg = Gree ~ Fac.)

There are two types of slipstream effect which can alter the pitching moment of an airplane: 1, Effect of slipstream on a canard or ona horizontal tail 2, Effect of slipstream on a wing i, Effect of slipstream on a canard or on a horizontal tail The effect of (propeller) slipstream on the local dynamic pressure at the canard or at the horizontal tail has already been accounted for through the dynamic pres- sure ratios, a, and n, as found from 8.1.5.2.

The position was taken that all longitudinal control surface deflections were set at zero. In any equilibrium flight condition the airplane must also be in moment equilibrium. The effect of pit- ching moment equilibrium (also known as longitudinal mo- ment trim, or simply: trim) on airplane lift at different renter of gravity locations will be accounted for in this rection. The following condition mst be satisfied in a trimmed flight condition: c, = 0 (8,112) The pitching moment coefficient C, takes on values which depend on: 1, the lift coefficient at which the airplane is flying, 2, the location of the center of gravity and 3. the power setting. Methods for computing C,, are given in Section 8.2. The trim condition as expressed by Eqn. (8,112) is a- chieved by deflection of one or more control surfaces. In this Section, the following control surfaces will be accounted for: 1. Stabilizer incidence, i, 2, Elevator deflection, 6, 3. Canard incidence, i, 4. Canardvator deflection, & Figure 8.131 shows typical examples of these control surfaces and their typical arrangement on an airplane. Different types of longitudinal controls may be required on certain airplanes. Examples are: elevons on delta wings (as on the F-106) or symmetrically deflected aile- rons (as on the Starship). In this section only types 1-4 will be considered. Part VI Chapter & Page 344 HOPIZ.TAIL + fhe = —\ — WA Z ELEVATOR CANARDVATOR. 131 q CANABD Ce HORIZ.

Figure 8,133 shows how a control surface deflection affects the airplane pitching moment versus lift curve. Note the control surface sign conventions in Fig. 8.131! Next, methods are presented for determining the trimmability of airplanes. This is accomplished using so-called trim diagrams. Part VI Chapter 8 Page 346 A method for determining trimmed lift and trimmed maximum lift capability of an airplane is presented for the following cases: 8.3.1 Stable airplane with stable pitchbreak 8.3.2 Unstable airplane with stable pitchbreak 8.3.3 Stable airplane with unstable pitchbreak 8.3.4 Unstable airplane with unstable pitchbreak In the case of military airplanes with external sto- res and/or with deployed speedbrakes, significant addi- tional pitching moments may be introduced due to these devices. Such ‘drag-induced’ pitching moments can be ac- counted for through a shift of the origin of the C.-C, plot. This shift is computed from: ac, = (acy Daye (8,115) 'store/speedbrake 'store/speedbrake Cy is the drag increment due to store/speedbrake the store or speedbrake. This increment follows from Section 4.9 or from 4.12. wher: a, is the moment arm, positive if the drag incre- ment acts ABOVE the c.g. $.3.1 Stable Airplane with Stable Pitch Break Figures 8.134a,b present trim diagrams for a stable airplane with a stable pitch break: Pig.8.134a is for a conventional (tail-aft) airplane Fig. 8.134b is for a canard airplane. The C,-a and C,-C,, curves for ZERO control surface deflections are obtained with the methods of Sections 81 and 8.2 respectively. The effect of control surface de- flections on these curves is determined with the method indicated in Figures 8.132 and 8.133. Note that the C, axis is labelled: Cc, . The lo- Xref cation of the moment reference center, x,o¢ is normally selected somewhere between the most forward and the most aft locations of the airplane center of gravity. Methods for determining the center of gravity location of any airplane are discussed in Part II, Chapter 10.

For any value of airplane angle of attack, a, Eqn. (8,117) can be used to solve for the corres- ponding value of i, which will cause the tail to stall. By repeating this for a range of angles of attack, a tail stall locus can be drawn into Figure 8.134a. Note: for a canard airplane, the canard stall locus is found in a similar manner by using the following equation: awe « (8,118) stall ativ+e Ho a, (de./da) follows from 8.1.5.2 de,/da follows from 81.5.3 IMPORTANT OBSERVATION: the tail stall and/or the canard stall loci MUST be outside the so-called trim triangle identified in Step 3. If this con- dition is not satisfied, severe restrictions on the performance of the airplane may result. Compute C, = W/gS for significant points in the airplane flight envelope. Figure 8.135 shows examples of significant trim points in the flight envelope of low and high speed airplanes. These points depend on the mission requirements Chapter & Page 350 7 Part VI Chapter & Page 351 placed on the airplane. 6. Determine the c.g. location(s) at which the trim needs to be investigated. Combinations of weight and c.g. locations follow from the weight-c.g. excursion diagram discussed in detail in Ch.10 of Part II. 7. Plot the C, points on the appropriate C,=0 line (corresponding to its c.g. location) in Figures 8,134a,b and determine the amount of control sur- face deflection required to trim. From these control deflections required for trim it is pos~ ble to compute the tail or canard lift increments to trim, needed in the trim drag calculations on p.104: Ac = (C, Lh or ¢ UL, or @ thor e (8,119) or: Ac, 8 (8,120) eore Mh or ¢ See 8. Points A and B in Figures 8.134a,b represent the trimmed maximum lift coefficients at the corres~ ponding c.g. locations of the airplane. SPECIAL CASE: Three-surface Airplane Trim In the case of a three surface configuration the designer can choose how to deflect control surfaces on the canard, the wing and the tail in conjunction with each other. Several possible optimization schemes are now possible: 1, Minimize trimmed drag 2. Maximize trimmed maximum lift 3. Maximize maneuvering capability The construction of a trim diagram for a three surface airplane is left to the reader. The Grumman X-29 and the Piaggio Avanti are examples of three surface airplanes. 8.3.2 Unstable Airplane with Stable Pitch Break Figures 8,136a,b present example trim diagrams for an unstable airplane with a stable pitch break. The pro- Part VI Chapter & Page 352 cedures outlined in 8.3.1 for determining trimmed lift and trimmed maximum lift also apply in this case. 8.3.3 Stable Airplane with Unstable Pitch Break Figures 8.137a,b present example trim diagrams for a stable airplane with an unstable pitch break. The method of 8.3.1 for determining trimmed lift can be used without modification. However, to determine the allowable trimmed maximum lift coefficient now is not very straightforward. Depen- ding on the number of pitch curve ‘wiggles’ and depending on the change in control power at high angle of attack, the trimmed maximum lift coefficient may be limited for reasons other than aerodynamic stall. If handling quali- ty problems or severity of pitch divergence so dictate, the airplane may have to be equipped with stick-shakers and/or with stick-pushers. In such cases the maximum trimmable lift coefficient which can be used in the nor- mal performance envelope of the airplane is predicated on the lift coefficient corresponding to stick-pusher o- Peration. Figures 8.157a,b indicate such an artificial limit. In the case of airplanes equipped with digital flight control systems a control-limiting scheme may be added to the flight control laws. Such a control limi- ting scheme may limit the angle of attack which actually can be reached by the airplane. The limiting value of trimmed maximum lift coefficient must then be the one which corresponds to the limit set by the flight control law and not by any inherent aerodynamic limit. 8.3.4 Unstable Airplane with Unstable Pitch Break Figures 8.138a,b show examples of trim diagrams for an unstable airplane with an unstable pitch break. The comments made under 8.3.2 apply to this case. Part VI Chapter 8 Page 353 8,13 Part VI Chapter & Page 354 9, AIRPLANE HIGH LIFT DATA The purpose of this chapter is to present a range of high lift (and some pitching moment) data. These data are presented in the following form: 9.1, Airfoil high lift data: flaps up and down 9.2. Airplane high lift data: flaps up and down / 9.3. Mach number effects on high lift 9.1 AIRFOIL HIGH LIFT DATA: FLAPS UP AND FLAPS DOWN A summary of NACA airfoil high lift and pitching m- ment data is provided in Table 9.1 for flaps up. Tables 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 provide data on airfoil high lift and pitching moment for flaps down. The reader should carefully note the effect of Rey- nold's Number on the maximum lift coefficient. This ef- fect must pot be neglected in preliminary design. A sum- mary of the effect of Reynold’s Number on airfoil maximum lift is provided in Figures 9.1 and 9.2. References 49 and 51 provide mich additional data on airfoil maximum lift and pitching moment as well as on the effect of Reynold's Number. 2.2 AIRPLANE HIGH LIFT DATA: FLAPS UP AND FLAPS DOWN In this section some examples of actual airplane high lift data are presented. Tables 9.5 present a summary of airplane trimmed maximum lift coefficient data, flaps up anf flaps down. Actual airplane high lift versus angle of attack data are presented as follows: Figure 9.3 N.A.Rockwell T2C Figure 9.4 N.A.Rockwell S-60 Sabreliner Figure 9.5 Raisbeck Modification, $-65 Sabreliner Figure 9.6 Canadair Challenger Figure 9.7 Learjet M55 Figure 9.8 Boeing 767-300 Figure 9.9 Boeing 737-300 Part VI Chapter 9 Page 355 9.3 MACH NUMBER EFFECTS ON HIGH LIFT At high subsonic Mach numbers the magnitude of maxi- mum lift coefficient tends to decrease as a result of shock induced separations. This decrease in maximum lift manifests itself as buffet (below maximum lift) and as a reduction in maneuvering capability of the airplane. This effect is strongly influenced by: 1, wing sweep angle 2. airfoil thickness 3. airfoil camber Figure 9.10 shows some early data indicating the ef- fect of planform and Mach number on the maximum lift of wings with a 6 percent thick airfoil. With modern airfoil design it is possible to achieve significant improvements in high lift at all Mach numbers and do so at much higher airfoil thickness ratios. (This also results in lower structural weights!) Figure 9.11 illustrates this on the Rockwell T2C: the basic airfoil has t/c = 0.12, the modified airfoil has t/c = 0.17. A penalty which accompanies almost any increase in high lift is an increase in pitching moment. Since this needs to be trimmed out, the net gain in lift is not as high as untrimmed data would indicate. Figure 9.12 shows the effect of airfoil change on the T2C on its pitching moment behavior: note the rather large negative increase in pitching moment. An example of the buffet boundary (C,, «<, ) ‘buf fet ‘max for a modern business jet airplane with an advanced air- foil is given in Figure 9.13. Most high lift data are obtained for steady state conditions. In flight test such conditions are simulated by accepting high lift data only when the rate of reduc- tion of airspeed is not greater than 1 kt/sec. In addition to the effect of speed changes on high lift, there are strong effects of rate of change of angle of attack on high lift. The data in Figs 9.14 and 9.15 indicate this! In determining the performance of fighter aircraft these unsteady effects are very important.

In addition, many recent fighter airplanes and several small commercial airplanes sprout canards, with or without a separate control surface. Many airplanes use spoilers and differential stabilizers as well as ai- lerons for lateral control. For these reasons, the following control (power) derivatives are considered in this Section: 10.3.1 Stabilizer Control Derivatives 10.3.2 Elevator Control Derivatives 10.3.3 Canard Control Derivatives 10.3.4 Canardvator Control Derivatives 10.3.5 Aileron Control Derivatives 10.3.6 Spoiler Control Derivatives 10,3,7 Differential Stabilizer Control Derivatives 10.3.8 Rudder Control Derivatives The methods presented in this section apply only to the subsonic speed regime. For other speed regimes Ref.9 should be consulted. 10.3.1 Stabilizer Control Derivatives: C, and C,, h For a discussion of preliminary sizing of the hori- zontal stabilizer the reader is referred to Chapters 8 and 11 of Part II.

The sizing of the horizontal tail (stabilizer) is normally based on requirements for longitudinal stability and con- trol. The reader should refer to Chapter 8 of Part II for preliminary horizontal tail sizing methods. In this sub-section it will be assumed that the geo- metry of the horizontal tail surfaces is known.

It is obtained by using the exposed horizontal tail aspect ratio, A, in Eqn. (822) and substituting other e appropriate horizontal tail parameters for wing parameters.

For methods which apply in the transonic and supersonic speed ranges the reader should consult Reference 9. The methods to be presented apply only in the linear range of control surface deflections (< 20 degrees at best) and in the linear range of angles of attack (rough- ly 12 degrees). For nonlinear effects the reader should consult Ref.9 and use windtunnel data wherever possible. Hingemoment derivatives are used for two purposes: 1. Computing stick, wheel and pedal cockpit control forces so they can be checked against airworthi- ness requirements. Part VII contains methods for computing the cock- pit control forces as well as methods for check- ing with airworthiness standards. 2. Computing actuator force levels so that hydraulic or electro-mechanical actuators can be properly sized. Chapter 4 in Part IV contains a discussion of ac- tuator sizing criteria. Figure 10,61 shows a basic control surface and tab arrangement with the necessary geometric parameters iden- tified. Note the use of the following nomenclature: main surface, control surface and tab, shown in Figure 10,61, This nomenclature applies to the following combinations: 1, horizontal tail + elevator + elevator tab 2. canard + canardvator + canardvator tab 3. wing + aileron + aileron tab 4. vertical tail + rudder + rudder tab For a detailed discussion of the purpose of various combinations of tabs and control surfaces, the reader should consult Chapter 4 of Part IV. In most cases, hingemoments are taken about the con- trol surface hingeline: corresponding hingemoment coeffi- Part VI Chapter 10 Page 463 cients and derivatives are denoted: and c, respectively. h h, In some cases, hingemoments need to be considered about the tab hinge line: for example in servo-tab sys- tems. ‘The corresponding hingemoment coefficients and derivatives in that case are denoted: cf, and cn, respectively. The material in this sub-section is organized as follows: 10.4.1 Two-Dimensional Control Surface and Tab Hin- gemoment Derivatives about the Control sur- face Hingeline 10,4,2 Three-Dimensional Control Surface and Tab Hingemoment Derivatives about the Control Surface Hingeline 10.4.3 Two-Dimensional Tab Hingemoment Derivatives about the Tab Hingeline 10.4.4 Three-Dimensional Tab Hingemoment Derivatives about the Tab Hingeline The methods apply as long as the airflow over the control surface is attached.

USER'S GUIDE The purpose of this chapter is to present a User's Guide to the prediction methods presented in this part of the eight part series on Airplane Design. It is assumed that the Preliminary Design Sequence I (see p.11, Part II) has been completed and that the re- sults of the accompanying Class I work have been properly documented. The stage is now set for a more ‘in depth’ (Class -II) analysis of the capabilities of the design. To accomplish this, the following characteristics need to be determined: Drag polars Installed thrust or power data Lift versus angle of attack Pitching moment versus angle of attack Stability, control and hingemoment derivatives wees The data which are the result of determining items 1.) through 5.) are themselves input data to the calcula- tion and the evaluation of performance, stability, con- trol, handling qualities and airworthiness capabilities of the airplane as outlined in Part VII. NOTE: The reader should not attempt to perform any of the calculations represented by 1.) through 5.) with- out a complete geometric definition of the airplane: a dimensioned, Class I threeview MUST be available. This threeview should be of a size large enough so that dimen- sions needed in predicting items i.) through 5.) can be ‘scaled’ directly from this threeview drawing. If a CAD (Computer Aided Design) data base is available for the airplane, so much the better. 12,1 USER'S GUIDE FOR DRAG POLAR DETERMINATION Step 1: The reader should determine for which con- ditions drag polars are needed: Airplane Configuration: *Clean *Flap position (up, take-off or landing) *Landing Gear (up or down) *External stores ‘Engine and inlet status Part VI Chapter 12 Page 505 Flight Condition: *Mach Number *Altitude *Reynold’s Number *Weight *Center of Gravity Location The conditions selected depend on the type of per- formance calculations which need to be performed with the drag polars. Example of performance capabilities which typically mist be determined are: A) Mission oriented performance such as: * take-off * climb * cruise * loiter * descent * landing * maneuvering * high speed dash * accelerate B) Airworthiness oriented performance such as: * climb rate or gradient with failed engine(s) * balanced fieldlength * performance following major damage (for exam- ple combat damage) Step 2: Proceed to Chapter 4 to compute the required drag data. Refer to Equation 4.4 and iden- tify which drag components must be determi- ned. Prepare a list of input data needed for the calculation of each drag component. Plot the results in the form of C, versus a. Proceed to Section 12.3 and use the resul- ting C, versus @ plot together with the C) versus a plot obtained from Step 2 to con- struct a C, versus Cp plot (=drag polar). 4: Verify the drag polars with the procedure of Section 5.5, p.135. Also compare the drag polar data with data on similar airplanes: see Section 5.1, p.117. 12.2 USER'S GUIDE FOR DETERMINATION OF INSTALLED THRUST OR POWER It will be assumed that the Class I powerplant inte- gration has been carried out as indicated in Chapter 5 of Part II. The powerplant installation has therefore been temporarily ‘frozen’ which means that the following in- formation should be available: Part VI Chapter 12 Page 506 * engine type * number of engines * inlet inlet type and * exhaust type and size nozzle size Manufacturers uninstalled thrust or power data mst also be available at this point. Finally, it will be assumed that a list of systems required by the airplane including a preliminary deter- mination of the power requirements of these systems, is avalable. Step 1: Obtain engine manufacturers uninstalled thrust or power data. These data should define uninstalled thrust (or power) as a function of altitude, temperature, airspeed and fuel flow. If such detailed data are not available, the data in Chapter 6 of Part III may be used to "guestimate’ a set of uninstalled data. Refer to pages 139 and 140 (Chapter 6) and proceed with the preparation of the input data necessary in the calculation of instal- led thrust or power data. Using the methods of Sections 6.1 through 6.4 estimate the installed power or thrust capabilities of the airplane. Example data are given in Chapter 7. 12,3 USER’S GUIDE FOR DETERMINATION OF LIFT VERSUS ANGLE OF ATTACK Part VI The reader should determine for which flight conditions the lift versus angle of attack data need to be prepared. Refer to Step 1 in Section 12.1 for some guidelines. Proceed to Section 8.1 for the calculation of the required lift versus angle of attack characteristics. Plot the results in the form of C, versus a. Check the results of Step 2 by comparing with example data on similar airplanes such as given in Chapter 9. Chapter 12 Page 507 12.4 USER'S GUIDE POR THE DETERMINATION OF PITCHING MO- MENT VERSUS ANGLE OF ATTACK AND THE TRIM DIAGRAM Step i: Step 3: 5: The reader should determine for which flight conditions the pitching moment versus angle of attack data need to be prepared. Refer to Step 1 of Section 12.1 for guidelines. Refer to the weight versus center of gra- vity diagram (See Chapter 10, Part II) and determine the most forward and aft c.g. lo- cation which applies to each flight condi- tion selected in Step 1. Select a suitable c.g. location for use as the reference point in the pitching moment calculations. Proceed to Section 8.2 and determine the pitching moment versus angle of attack cha- racteristics. Plot the results in the form of C, versus a for the reference point se- lected in Step 2. Proceed to Section 8.3 and determine the airplane trim diagram in the form of a plot of C, versus C, for the reference point se- lected in step 2. Verify the results of Step 4 by comparing with data on similar airplanes. Some data are given in Chapter 9. 12,5 USER'S GUIDE POR THE DETERMINATION OF STABILITY, CONTROL AND HINGENOMENT DERIVATIVES 1: Step 2: 3: Part VI Determine the flight conditions for which the derivatives need to be determined. Use Step 1 in Section 12.1 for guidelines. Proceed to Chapter 10 and compute the re- quired derivatives. Verify the results of Step 2 by comparing with data on similar airplanes. Example de- rivative data are given in Chapter 11. Chapter 12 Page 508 13. REFERENCES on Note: 8 10. 11. 12, 13, 14, 15. Part Roskam, J., Airplane Design: Part I, Preliminary Sizing of Airplanes.

Once the detailed shape of the major aircraft components is accurately established by means of lofting processes (e.g. ref.B3), these characteristic areas ‘apd volumes can be computed mmerically or by means of graphical methods. The present subject, hovever, is associated vith project design studic where the detailed shape and dimensions are not alvays accurately knova oF, in some cases, may have been chosen provisionally. An estimation, accurate within fev percent of the exact value, may be acceptable vhen euphasis is laid on tine saving. sent, nenorandum methods are presented for the calculation of + areas and volumes, having different degrees of accuracy. In the pi cireunferene The most exact procedure is based on a representation of the surface contour lines by a suitable polynomial vith fractional exponents. Such f tvo-paraneter method is explained in ch.B2 and is very simple to use vhen a three-viev draving of the component is available. Generalized results of the various integrations are presented in disgrans (cb.B3). ‘These are useful not only for accurate computations, but they have been used for the derivation of simplified methods as vel. ‘The reader vho is interested in practical results only may omit the reading of chapters andQ3. Chapters®t,B5 andB6 deal vith applications for fuselages, wings, tailplanes, fuel tanks and engine nacelles. In general, both accurate and simplified methods are presented. For fuse- Anges a reviev of the various availdble methods is given on fig. 5. Bz. Approximation of contours ical ‘The rigid requirenents in aeronautical design have led to the adoption of streamline shapes vith smooth, continuous external lines, resulting in a sncoth rate of change of curvature along the entire length of the dody. For fuselages, the application of « pressurized cabin makes @ circular cross section or a section built up from circular sections « very desireble, if not mandatory feature. Extensive areas of double: curvature, like saddle surfaces, should be avoided because of the associated costly manufacturing processes. The design criteria for vings are entirely different as the external shape is dictated ty serodynanic requirenents, viz. lov drag, high aaximm lift, favourable characteris tics at high incidences and at Mach nunbersvhere compressibility effects fare dominant. For subsonic aircraft, leading and trailing edges of vings and tail surfaces are frequently straight Lines. Aerofoils have neatly Part VI Appendix B Page 526 rounded noses, vhile sharp trailing edges are used for good Lifting pro- perties. For ease of production, intermediate sections are often con structed from tip and root sections by assuming straight Lines between corresponding poizts ("Linear lofting"). In general, it vill be necessary to subdivide the body, for vaich the characteristic areas and volumes must be calculated, into several sections. For example, the pressurized fuselage of a transport aircraft {2 logically split up into a nose section, a cylindrical mid section ant fe tail section. The more sections are used in non-cylindrical parts, the higher will be the accuracy of prediction. For project-design purpo: however, a method is required, resulting in an error of probably not more than a fev percent, using @ very Limited amount of subdivisions to ‘ininize the computational tine. ‘The general shape of many curves and external Lines can be represented in a most satisfactory vay by the following tvo-dimensional convex polynomial: i for nym a Yor typical fuselage nose and tail sections examples of this function are plotted in fig. 1 for two combinations of the exponents n and m. 2 and discussed belov.

Tt is not suggested that for s particular body the sectional contour should be approxinated by any of these special functions; errors of 5 - 108 in ‘volumes and vetted areas may be introduced by doing so.

To this end, a suitable choice of the X- and Yaaxes must be made, For fuselages, the X-axis vill usually be located in the plane of syme- try, the Yaris may be on the intersection of the cylindrical part vith the nose or tail section. Yor ving sections, the effect of camber on the circumferential length of a section ia negligible. On the corresponding symmetrical section, the X-axis in the chordline and the Y-axis vill be taken at the point of maximum section thickest Point 8 in fig. 3 in determined graphically in the draving as the inter- section of the contourline and the diagonal of the rectangle vhich en- closes the contour. The X-coordinate of $ as a fraction of the projected contourlength (a) defines the paraneter Y. The intersection of the tangent at S and. the X-axis defines the parameter y, The projected height of the contour is b, Although the graphical construction of a tangent is not aivays a very accurate procedure, it vill be shovn later on thet the re- sults are not affected to a great deal by errors in y. The equations relating combinations (n,n) and (y,y) to each other are derived in Ref. 58 ; the results are plotted in diagran 1. Once aod y are measured in the draving, 2 and m can be found and, if desired, ‘check on the accuracy of the approxination by eq. 1 can be mute by calculation of the contour. Hovever, in ch.B3 it vill be demonstrated that for the purpose of calculating volunes and areas, considerable deviations from the actual ahape are acceptable, provided that the value of g is accurate. For example, the parabolae 1 and 2 in fig, 2 have the sane value Y=} (5-1). Te sectional areas for both curves are exactly equal, the circumferential lengths are equal vithin a fev tenths of « percent, vhile the volunes and vetted areas of corresponding bodies of revolution differ by one or two percent only. Dingrans for eress, circunferences and volumes The choice of the polynomial given by ea. 1 provides the tool to calculate areas, circumferences and volunes of boly sections. The suitability of the function is confirmed by the fact that all results can be plotted in tvo- imensional diagrans, although 4 geonetric paraeters (y, y, © and») are involved. The diagrams can be used for a very quick calculation, as so inte= erations are necessary.

For a given value of a/, the error with renpect to the exact renult, as shown in the diagran, in Less thaa one percent. In sone cases, the calculation of the circumferential length of « cror section is an intermediate step in the computation of vetted area. In ‘those cases, the height/vidth ratio is alvays between 0.5 and 2 and, within ‘the corresponding range 0.5< a/b < 1.0, the circumference is hardly affected by a/b as vell. This property will be used for the simplified calculations of par. 4.2.

The wetted area, plotted in ingram 5 as a fraction of the cylinder external area (2rab) plus one ide area (10), is affected primarily by 9 and a/b. In analogy to the case for the circunference, the omission of y results in errors of not more than 1 or 28.
