Merenje prelaznih opterećenja na dva modela u aero tunelu t-38 / Measurement of transient loads on two models
Abstract
Pri ispitivanju modela u "rafalnom" aerotunelu sa prekidnim dejstvom T-38, na Mahovim brojevima većim od 2, moraju se uzeti u obzir prelazne pojave koje se javljaju na početku i na kraju rada aerotunela. To su stanja kada su model i aerovaga izloženi velikim aerodinamičkim silama i momentima. Ova kombinovana opterećenja mogu oštetiti modele i aerovage, pa bi bilo potrebno unapred znati kolike se vrednosti očekuju za pojedine konfiguracije modela, kako bi se izvršio pravilan izbor aerovage i odgovarajućih materijala za izradu modela. U tu svrhu postoje dijagrami koji pružaju mogućnost procene ovih opterećenja. Dijagrami su dobijeni na osnovu ispitivanja nekoliko različitih modela na Mahovim brojevima većim od 2. U radu su prikazana merenja prelaznih opterećenja na još dva modela, a rezultati su upoređeni sa već postojećim dijagramima. / The T-38 wind tunnel is a blow down, intermittent-run type of wind tunnels. During model testing in the this type of wind tunnels, at Mach numbers higher than 2, transient loads which appear during the starting and stopping of the wind tunnel runs must be taken into consideration. These are the conditions when a model and the wind tunnel balance are exposed to large aerodynamic forces and moments. These combined loads can damage models and wind tunnel balances, and, for this reason, it is very important to determine them in advance for any particular model configuration so that an appropriate wind tunnel balance and materials for model manufacturing can be chosen. For that purpose there are graphs which give possibilities to estimate these loads. The graphs are based on experiments with a number of different models at Mach numbers higher than 2. This paper gives the measurements of transient loads on two more models and the results are compared with the already existing graphs.
