Abstract
Abstract A hybrid drone called a biplane quadrotor operates in both low (during the horizontal flight) and high (transition maneuver) Angle of Attack (AoA). So, this paper focuses on enhancing aerodynamic force during the transition maneuver. Synthetic Jet actuators (SJAs) can modify airfoil shapes virtually, so either the flow reattaches or flow separation will be delayed. This delay can enhance the aerodynamic force. In this paper, CFD analysis is performed using Ansys Fluent to study the impact of SJA on NACA 0015 airfoil at high (30°) AoA. This study aims to find the best location of SJA for high AoA to get maximum lift enhancement. The outcome of this study reveals that at 85 %, we can get maximum enhancement in the lift.
期刊介绍:
The Main aim and scope of this Journal is to help improve each separate components R&D and superimpose separated results to get integrated systems by striving to reach the overall advanced design and benefits by integrating: (a) Physics, Aero, and Stealth Thermodynamics in simulations by flying unmanned or manned prototypes supported by integrated Computer Simulations based on: (b) Component R&D of: (i) Turbo and Jet-Engines, (ii) Airframe, (iii) Helmet-Aiming-Systems and Ammunition based on: (c) Anticipated New Programs Missions based on (d) IMPROVED RELIABILITY, DURABILITY, ECONOMICS, TACTICS, STRATEGIES and EDUCATION in both the civil and military domains of Turbo and Jet Engines.
The International Journal of Turbo & Jet Engines is devoted to cutting edge research in theory and design of propagation of jet aircraft. It serves as an international publication organ for new ideas, insights and results from industry and academic research on thermodynamics, combustion, behavior of related materials at high temperatures, turbine and engine design, thrust vectoring and flight control as well as energy and environmental issues.
