Aircraft Walk Around • Wing Span = 14.6 ft • A/C Length = 10 ft • Conventional Tail – NACA 0012 • Pusher Internal Pod • Low wing – Clark Y • Tricycle Gear
Dimensions *Still some issues with sizing vertical tail
Alpha L=0 Determination Xfoil runs of ClarkY foil at cruise and takeoff Cruise: αL=0= -3.5° Takeoff no flap: αL=0= -3.8° Takeoff 10° flap: αL=0= -7° Takeoff 15° flap: αL=0= -7.8°
Stall Performance • CL needed = 1.19 • Wing without flaps reaches CL at a=13° • Wing stall possible • Wing with 15° flap deflection reaches CL at 11° Required CL Flaperons necessary to meet stall requirements
NACA Empirical Data For ClarkY Foil Approximate Stall angle ~14° http://naca.larc.nasa.gov/reports/1933/naca-report-431/
Stall Performance Required CL CD = 0.119 at required CL
Cruise Performance CL needed = 0.366 CL achieved at a = 1.9° Total Lift produced = 57 lbf Total Drag = 2.6 lbf, L/D =21
NACA Empirical Data For ClarkY Foil L/D at a = 2° is approximately 22 http://naca.larc.nasa.gov/reports/1933/naca-report-431/
Horizontal Tail Requires Tail Angle of -5° • AR = 3 • Span = 6 • Chord = 2 CL = -0.32 required of horizontal tail at cruise
Fuselage Drag 0.67 ft 5 ft 1.33 ft • Assumptions • Cf for turbulent flow • Fuselage approximated as box • Interference factor, Q, 1.2 (low end of unfilleted low wings) • FF from Raymer Eq. (12.31)
Drag Build Up at Cruise More to come…
Summary Horizontal Tail • Foil: NACA 0012 • Taper Ratio = 1 • Dihedral Angle = 0º • AR = 3 • S = 12 ft2 • Angle of Incidence = -5° Wing • Foil: ClarkY • Taper Ratio = 1 • Dihedral Angle = 5° • AR = 5 • S = 42 ft2 • Angle of Incidence = 2°
