Abstract

In this paper, aerodynamic data of the Gaori kite was constructed through the wind tunnel experiment taking into consideration all the angles of attack formed during the flight of the Gaori kite. From this aerodynamic data, we made a morphing analysis of the relative length of the front bridle to the rear bridle required to achieve equilibrium flight as the angle of attack of the Gaori kite or the azimuth angle change. As a result, it was found that the relative length of the front bridle to the rear bridle depends entirely on the chord length of the kite, the relative wind speed and changes morphed according to the angle of attack. Using this information data, one can adjust the relative length of the bridle line to suit the kite attitudes and flight environments handling the kites that maintain optimal flight performance.

본 논문에서는 가오리 연의 비행 중에 형성되는 모든 받음각 변화를 고려한 풍동 실험을 통해 가오리연의 공력 자료를 구축하였다. 이 공력 자료로부터 가오리연이 받음각 또는 연실-지평각이 변함에 따라 평형 비행 상태를 이루는데 필요한 목줄에 대한 꽁수줄의 상대적 길이를 해석하였다. 해석 결과 목줄에 대한 꽁수줄의 상대적 길이는 연의 시위 길이와 풍속에 전적으로 의존하고 받음각에 따라 모핑 변화하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 자료를 활용하면 비행환경과 연의 자세에 맞게 방줄의 상대길이를 조정할 수 있으며 최적성능을 유지하는 연을 다룰 수 있게 될 것이다.
