Abstract

Longitudinal static stability and steady aerodynamic characteristics of wings flying over nonplanar ground surfaces (rail and channel) are investigated using the boundary-element method. For a channel with it's fence higher than the wing height, the lift and the nose-down pitching moment increase as the gap between the wingtip and the fence decreases. For a rail with it's width wider than the wing span, the lift and the nose-down pitching moment increase as the rail height decreases. Longitudinal static stability of a single wing flying over nonplanar surfaces is worse than the case of the flat ground. In case of tandem wings, longitudinal static stability of the wings flying over the channel is better than the case of the flat ground. It is believed that the present results can be applied to the conceptual design of high-speed ground transporters.

채널 및 레일과 같은 비평면 지면 위를 비행하는 날개들의 정상상태 공력특성 및 종방향 정안정성을 경계요소법을 사용하여 연구하였다. 펜스의 높이가 날개의 위치보다 높을 경우, 펜스와 날개와의 거리가 작아질수록 양력이 증가하고 피칭다운 모멘트가 커졌다. 레일의 폭이 날개 스팬보다 넓을 때, 레일의 높이가 낮을수록 양력이 증가하고 유도항력이 감소하였다. 종방향 정안정성 측면에서 단일 날개의 경우 비평면 지면보다 평지에서 안정한 결과를 나타내었다. 종렬배치형 날개의 경우 채널내를 비행하는 날개가 평지보다 비평면 지면에서 안정적이었다. 본 연구결과는 초고속운송체의 설계에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
