Remarkable Reduction

A lifting surface theory is developed to predict the unsteady three-dimensional aerodynamic characteristics for a rotating subsonic annular cascade of swept blades. A discrete element method is used to solve the integral equation for the unsteady blade loading. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate effects of the sweep on the blade flutter and on the acoustic field generated by interaction of rotating blades with a convected sinusoidal gust. It is found that increasing the sweep results in decrease of the aerodynamic work on vibrating blades and also remarkable reduction of the modal acoustic power of lower radial orders for both forward and backward sweeps.

Lifting Surface

SummaryApplications of “integral transforms of in-plane coordinate variables” in order to formulate unsteady planar lifting surface theories are demonstrated for both sub- and supersonic inviscid flows. It is concise and pithy. Fourier transforms are exclusively used, except for only Laplace transform in the supersonic streamwise direction. It is found that the streamwise Fourier inversion in the subsonic case requires some caution. Concepts based on the theory of distributions seem to be essential, in order to solve the convergence difficulties of integrals. Apart from this caution, the method of integral transforms of in-plane coordinate variables makes it be pure-mathematical to formulate the lifting surface problems, and makes aerodynamicist’s experiences and physical models such as vortices or doublets be useless.

Drag Factor

Summary Theoretical data from lifting-surface theory are presented to illustrate (i) that the vortex drag factor is closely related to the half-wing spanwise centre of pressure on simple planforms without camber or twist, (ii) that lifting-line theory is useless for predicting the spanwise distribution of vortex drag on swept wings, (iii) that recent numerical improvements in lifting-surface theory help to reconcile the concepts of wake energy and leading-edge suction in relation to vortex drag.

Elastic Modes

In this report a theoretical procedure is developed for the prediction of the dynamic response elastic or rigid body, of a hydrofoil-supported vehicle in the flying condition— to any prescribed transient or periodic disturbance. The procedure also yields the stability indices of the response, so that dynamic instabilities such as flutter can also be predicted. The unsteady hydrodynamic forces are introduced in the equations of motion for the elastic vehicle in terms of the indicia I pressure-response functions, which are de rived herein from lifting-surface theory. Thus, the predicted vehicle-response includes the effects of three-dimensional unsteady flow conditions at specified forward speed. The natural frequencies and elastic modes of vibration of the vehicle and foil system in the absence of hydrodynamic effects are presumed known. A numerical procedure is presented for the solution of the downwash integral equations relating the unknown indicial pressure distributions to the specified elastic-mode shapes. The procedure is based on use of the generalized-lift-operator technique together with the collocation method.

Interaction Problem

The propeller-rudder interaction problem is studied by means of the unsteady-lifting- surface theory. Both surfaces of arbitrary geometry are immersed in a non-uniform flow- field (i.e., hull wake) of an ideal incompressible fluid. The boundary-value problem yields a pair of surface integral equations, the inversion of which is achieved by the so- called "generalized lift operator" technique, a new approach developed by the authors, in conjunction with the presently used "mode-collocation" method. The analysis demonstrates the mechanism of the interaction phenomenon by exhibiting the filtering effects of the propeller on the harmonic constituents of the wake which allow the rudder to be exposed only to the blade harmonic and multiples thereof. A numerical procedure adaptable to the CDC 6600 computer has been developed which furnishes information about (i) the steady and time-dependent pressure distribution on both lifting surfaces, and (ii) the resultant hydrodynamic forces and moments. A limited number of calculations exhibit the importance of some parameters such as axial clearance, number of blades, and harmonic components of the hull wake.
