본 논문에서는 국방과학연구소에서 신규 건설한 천음속풍동을 소개하고 성능에 대하여 기술하였다. 천음속풍동은 인젝터구동(Injection Driven), 폐회로(Closed Circuit) 방식의 풍동으로 시험부 크기가 가로, 세로 각각 1.5m이다. 마하수는 0.3에서 1.2까지 연속적으로 변화가능하며, 노즐을 교체하여 마하수 1.4 실험이 가능하다. 풍동의 전압력(Total Pressure)을 100kPa에서 550kPa까지 변화시킬 수 있으며, 그에 따라 레이놀즈수(Reynolds Number)를 크게 변화시켜 실험을 수행할 수 있다. 풍동의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 AGARD-B 표준모형을 이용하여 6분력 공력계수 측정 실험을 수행하였으며, 그 결과를 국과연 삼중음속풍동 및 세계 여러 풍동의 실험결과와 비교 분석하였다.

A wind tunnel test was conducted that measured surface fluctuating pressures aft of a ramp at transonic speeds. Dynamic pressure test data was used to perform a study to determine best locations for streamwise sensor pairs for shocked and unshocked runs based on minimizing the error in root-mean-square acceleration response of the panel. For unshocked conditions, the upstream sensor is best placed at least 6.5 ramp heights downstream of the ramp, and the downstream sensor should be within 2 ramp heights from the upstream sensor. For shocked conditions, the upstream sensor should be between 1 and 7 ramp heights downstream of the shock, with the downstream sensor 2 to 3 ramp heights of the upstream sensor. The shock was found to prevent the passage coherent flow structures; therefore, it may be desired to use the shock to define the boundary of subzones for the purpose of loads definition. These recommendations should be generally applicable to a range of expansion corner geometries in transonic flow provided similar flow structures exist. The recommendations for shocked runs is more limited, relying on data from a single dataset with the shock located near the forward end of the region of interest.

충격파관을 이용하여 NACA와 이중쐐기 날개 주변의 천음속 유동에 대한 실험적 연구가 수행되었다. 벽면효과와 반사충격파의 영향을 최소화하기 위해 슬랏벽과 챔버를 가지는 실험부가 설계되었으며 이를 통해 충격과관을 비교적 높은 레이놀즈수의 천음속 유동을 발생시키는 간단하고 경제적인 풍동장치로 이용하고자 하였다. 열기류 마하수 0.80~0.84, 레이놀즈수 약 $1.2{\times}10^6$ 받음각 $0^{\circ}$ 와 $2^{\circ}$의 유동 조건에서의 천음속 날개 유동은 섀도우그래프법에 의해 가시화되었다. 날개 주변의 충격파 분포는 기존의 일반 천음속 풍동 실험의 결과와 비교되었다. 실험결과는 본 실험에 사용된 충격파관은 실험 마하수 범위와 날개에 대해 천음속 풍동으로서의 유효한 성능 특성을 나타내었다.

The experiments for NACA airfoils are conducted as the preliminary study for the aerodynamic characteristics of the transonic airfoil flow in the shock tube. The test section configurations were designed to use shock tube as simple and less costly experimental facility generating transonic flow at relatively high Reynolds numbers. Experiments at hot gas Mach numbers of 0.80, 0.82 and 0.84, Reynolds numbers of about $1.2\times10^6$ on airfoil chord length and angle of attack of $0^{\circ}\;and\;2^{\circ}$ were carried out by means of shadowgraph visualization method and static pressure measurements. Visualization results were compared with the corresponding results from the conventional transonic wind tunnel tests. The results of study showed that present shock tube facility is useful to study the proper performance characteristics in transonic Mach number range.

The presented paper gives an overview of several projects addressing the experimental characterization and control of the buffet phenomenon on 3D turbulent wings in transonic flow conditions. This aerodynamic instability induces strong wall pressure fluctuations and therefore limits flight domain. Consequently, to enlarge the latter but also to provide more flexibility during the design phase, it is interesting to try to delay the buffet onset. This paper summarizes the main investigations leading to the achievement of open and closed-loop buffet control and its experimental demonstration. Several wind tunnel tests campaigns, performed on a 3D half wing/fuselage body, enabled to characterize the buffet aerodynamic instability and to study the efficiency of innovative fluidic control devices designed and manufactured by ONERA. The analysis of the open-loop databases demonstrated the effects on the usual buffet characteristics, especially on the shock location and the separation areas on the wing suction side. Using these results, a closed-loop control methodology based on a quasi-steady approach was defined and several architectures were tested for various parameters such as the input signal, the objective function, the tuning of the feedback gain. All closed-loop methods were implemented on a dSPACE device able to estimate in real time the fluidic actuators command calculated mainly from the unsteady pressure sensors data. The efficiency of delaying the buffet onset or limiting its effects was demonstrated using the quasi-steady closed-loop approach and tested in both research and industrial wind tunnel environments.

To predict the transonic buffet onset for a supercritical airfoil with shock-boundary layer interactions, a practical steady approach has been proposed. In this study, it is assumed that the airfoil flow is steady even when buffet onset occurs. Steady Navier-Stokes computations are performed on the supercritical airfoil. Using the aerodynamic parameters calculated from Navier-Stokes solver, various steady approaches for predicting buffet onset are discussed. Among the various steady approaches considered in this study, Thomas' criterion based on Navier-Stokes computation has shown to be the most appropriate indicator of identifying the buffet onset for a supercritical airfoil with shock-boundary layer interactions. Good agreements have been obtained compared with the results of unsteady transonic wind tunnel tests. The present method is shown to be reliable and useful for transonic buffet onset for a supercritical airfoil with shock-boundary layer interactions in terms of practical engineering viewpoint.

The requirements of internal balance were studied that should be considered on performing force & moment transonic wind tunnel testing to develop combat aircraft. In many insecure factors of test condition, uncertainty analysis was conducted to verify one drag count measurements. The analysis result was applied to T-50 aircraft model and compared for data verifaction. In conclusion, the aerodynamicist should estimate the validation and accuracy of test data by having an overall grasp of system components including internal balance. It will help him get high productivity of testing and effective validated data at tunnel.

A space launch vehicle departs the ground in a low speed, soon reaches a transonic and a supersonic speed, and then flies in a hypersonic speed into the space. Therefore, the design of a launch vehicle should include the prediction of aerodynamic characteristics for all speed regimes, ranging from subsonic to hypersonic speed. Generally, Empirical and analytical methods and wind tunnel tests are used for the prediction of aerodynamic characteristics. This research presents considerable factors for aerodynamic analysis of a launch vehicle using CFD. This investigation was conducted to determine effects of wake over the base section on the aerodynamic characteristics of a launch vehicle and also performed to determine effects of the sting which exist to support wind tunnel test model.

The applications of CFD in the design process of a transonic civil transport at Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) are outlined. Three Navier-Stokes solvers, developed at KARI with different grid approaches, are used to predict the aerodynamic coefficients and solve the flowfield of various configurations. Multi-block, Chimera, and unstructured grids are the approaches implemented. The accuracy of the codes is verified for the transonic flow about RAE wing/fuselage configuration. The multi-block code is used to provide the detailed data on the flowfield around a wall interference model with different test section sizes which will be used in establishing the wall interference correction method. The subsonic and transonic flowfields about K100-04A, one of the configurations of a 100-seater transport developed by KARI and Korea Commercial Aircraft Development Consortium (KCDC), are computed to predict the aerodynamic coefficients. The results for the subsonic flow are compared with those of wind tunnel test, and the agreement is found to be excellent. The interference effect of nacelle installation on the wing of K100-04A is also investigated using the unstructured grid method, and about 10% reduction in wing lift is observed. The accuracy of the three developed codes is verified, and they are used as an efficient tool in the design process of a transonic transport.
