DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The objective of this research is the basic theoretical investigation of three-dimensional pressure, skin friction, and heat transfer disturbances in both laminar and turbulent boundary layer flows including viscous-inviscid interaction effects, separation, and reattachment. A sound understanding of these phenomena is required in modern aerodynamic design analyses of high-speed flight vehicles. The primary emphasis in these studies has been to seek a basic physical understanding of the underlying fluid behavior by means of analytically-oriented methods; in this way, the results can be used to guide and interpret concurrent experimental and computationally-oriented investigations. This inquiry has focused on two parallel paths of investigation: three-dimensional, viscous-inviscid interaction phenomena within turbulent boundary layers in supersonic flow due to impinging swept shock and/or 3-D surface deflections, and streamwise vortex-disturbance mechanisms within laminar or turbulent boundary layers that are either separated or attached.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Viscous flow is treated usually in the frame of boundary-layer theory and as two-dimensional flow. Books on boundary layers give at most the describing equations for three-dimensional boundary layers, and solutions often only for some special cases. This book provides basic principles and theoretical foundations regarding three-dimensional attached viscous flow. Emphasis is put on general three-dimensional attached viscous flows and not on three-dimensional boundary layers. This wider scope is necessary in view of the theoretical and practical problems to be mastered in practice. The topics are weak, strong, and global interaction, the locality principle, properties of three-dimensional viscous flow, thermal surface effects, characteristic properties, wall compatibility conditions, connections between inviscid and viscous flow, flow topology, quasi-one- and two-dimensional flows, laminar-turbulent transition and turbulence. Though the primary flight speed range is that of civil air transport vehicles, flows past other flying vehicles up to hypersonic speeds are also considered. Emphasis is put on general three-dimensional attached viscous flows and not on three-dimensional boundary layers, as this wider scope is necessary in view of the theoretical and practical problems that have to be overcome in practice. The specific topics covered include weak, strong, and global interaction; the locality principle; properties of three-dimensional viscous flows; thermal surface effects; characteristic properties; wall compatibility conditions; connections between inviscid and viscous flows; flow topology; quasi-one- and two-dimensional flows; laminar-turbulent transition; and turbulence. Detailed discussions of examples illustrate these topics and the relevant phenomena encountered in three-dimensional viscous flows. The full governing equations, reference-temperature relations for qualitative considerations and estimations of flow properties, and coordinates for fuselages and wings are also provided. Sample problems with solutions allow readers to test their understanding.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A combined analytical experimental program, which has as its continuing objective the detailed investigation of the three dimensional vortex interactions which take place in turbulent boundary layers, is described and the accomplishments detailed. The analytical and numerical studies have examined both the development and characteristics of loop and hairpin vortices in both uniform and shear flows; particular attention has been paid to the strong three dimensional, inviscid viscous interaction of these types of vortical flow structures with wall region fluid. The experimental studies have focussed on the creation & detailed examination of three dimensional hairpin vortices, developing flow visualization patterns for cross-comparison with both the analytical studies and fully turbulent boundary layer flows. A technique for developing quantitative data by image processing of the visualization patterns is also described. Keywords: Turbulent boundary layer; Coherent structure; Flow visualization; Numerical modelling; Vortex wall interactions; Computer aided analysis; Loop vortices; Hairpin vortices.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Fluid mechanical aspects of separated and vortical flow in aircraft wing aerodynamics are treated. The focus is on two wing classes: (1) large aspect-ratio wings and (2) small aspect-ratio delta-type wings. Aerodynamic design issues in general are not dealt with. Discrete numerical simulation methods play a progressively larger role in aircraft design and development. Accordingly, in the introduction to the book the different mathematical models are considered, which underlie the aerodynamic computation methods (panel methods, RANS and scale-resolving methods). Special methods are the Euler methods, which as rather inexpensive methods embrace compressibility effects and also permit to describe lifting-wing flow. The concept of the kinematically active and inactive vorticity content of shear layers gives insight into many flow phenomena, but also, with the second break of symmetry---the first one is due to the Kutta condition---an explanation of lifting-wing flow fields. The prerequisite is an extended definition of separation: “flow-off separation” at sharp trailing edges of class (1) wings and at sharp leading edges of class (2) wings. The vorticity-content concept, with a compatibility condition for flow-off separation at sharp edges, permits to understand the properties of the evolving trailing vortex layer and the resulting pair of trailing vortices of class (1) wings. The concept also shows that Euler methods at sharp delta or strake leading edges of class (2) wings can give reliable results. Three main topics are treated: 1) Basic Principles are considered first: boundary-layer flow, vortex theory, the vorticity content of shear layers, Euler solutions for lifting wings, the Kutta condition in reality and the topology of skin-friction and velocity fields. 2) Unit Problems treat isolated flow phenomena of the two wing classes. Capabilities of panel and Euler methods are investigated. One Unit Problem is the flow past the wing of the NASA Common Research Model. Other Unit Problems concern the lee-side vortex system appearing at the Vortex-Flow Experiment 1 and 2 sharp- and blunt-edged delta configurations, at a delta wing with partly round leading edges, and also at the Blunt Delta Wing at hypersonic speed. 3) Selected Flow Problems of the two wing classes. In short sections practical design problems are discussed. The treatment of flow past fuselages, although desirable, was not possible in the frame of this book.
