Each plot of the specific power equation that we add to this gives us a better definition of our design space. Which of the type of burst below is the most dangerous? How can I calculate the relationship between propeller pitch and thrust? Doing this will add another curve to our plot and it might look like the figure below. 11.1 A steep, low-power approach is more dangerous for heavy airplanes than light airplanes because, 11.2 Braking action on a dry concrete runway is ____________ that of a wet runway. 1.21 Newton's Second Law of Motion states that: If a body is acted on by an unbalanced force, the body will accelerate in the direction of the force and the acceleration will be directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass of the body. This can be determined from the power performance information studied in the last chapter. In a propeller driven aircraft, L/D max is often associated with V Y - best rate of climb speed. 1.19 An aircraft weighs 12,000 lbs. 9.10 As a power-producing aircraft burns off fuel, ROC will ___________ for a given velocity. Note that the thrust ratio above is normally just the ratio of density since it is normally assumed that. There are many good textbooks available on aircraft design and the Raymer text referenced earlier is one of the best. What effect does an increase in AOA have on the laminar characteristics of a laminar flow airfoil? I've read the other thread about the throttles, reversing, and feathering. 6.16 Which one of the following items does not occur at (L/D)max for a jet aircraft? What is the mass of the airplane?

Find the Groundspeed. 3.7 The Center of Pressure __________ move with a change in AOA for a symmetrical airfoil, while it ____________ move with a change in AOA for a cambered airfoil. Find the distance in nautical miles that it has flown through the air. 7.18 Increasing the weight of a thrust-producing aircraft moves all points on the thrust-required curve ____________. endobj If we assume a coordinated turn we find that once again the last two terms in the constraint analysis relationship go to zero since a coordinated turn is made at constant altitude and airspeed. 4.18 Using Fig. 11.18 Which factor affects the calculation of landing performance for a typical aircraft? 13.21 As the weight of an aircraft decreases, the VA. 13.22 ______________ of the total lift is the centripetal force that causes radial acceleration. By optimum we mean that we are looking for the minimum thrust-to-weight ratio that will enable the airplane to meet its performance goals and we would like to have the highest possible wing loading. Spreadsheets are indeed are helpful here, and may be programmed as follows: Same units of Velocity for climb and airspeed. 11.3 How does a weight increase affect landing performance? Find the acceleration of the airplane. To obtain best range the pilot now must, 8.2 Maximum rate of climb for a propeller airplane occurs at, 8.3 The turboprop aircraft has its lowest specific fuel consumption at about 25,000 feet altitude because, This is a compromise between (a) and (b) above, 8.4 The lowest point on the Pr curve is (L/D)max. Hg and a runway temperature of 20C. What is the wavelength of this light as it travels through water (nwater=1.33)\left(n_{\text {water }}=1.33\right)(nwater=1.33) ? 6.13 There are two basic types of climbs when considering the performance of jet aircraft, delayed climb and _____________. 2.15 The standard unit of measure for static pressure for pilots and altimeter settings is: 2.17 At _____________ altitude the static pressure is about half that at sea level. It should be noted that in plotting curves for cruise and climb a flight speed must be selected for each. The maximum rate of climb at a given speed will then depend on the difference between the power available from the engine at that speed and the power required for straight and level flight. RWY 27L & 27R), and the winds are 360/5, which choice(s) is/are true? In computing FAR 25 climb performance, the effects of one engine inoperative must include not only a decrease in thrust, but an increase in drag due to: 1) windmilling drag of inoperative engine or windmilling or feathered drag of propeller. 10.14 When taking off from a high-density altitude airport, the ________ will be higher than at sea level. 11.10 The minimum glide angle also corresponds to ____________________. wo6eo'}Mkl?@^l8$.$owVF-*: qyCe&D>a+%Xc d/J0GC:rqC'J 10.19 _____ is the intersection of the acceleration and deceleration profiles. 8.24 Though a turboprop produces power and thrust, the amount of thrust produced directly by the engine is only about what percentage of the total? Find the kinetic energy. 2.13 Using Table 2.1 and the appropriate equation, calculate the dynamic pressure, q, at 7,000 ft density altitude and 140 knots TAS. The solution can then be directly read from the graph. 10.22 Takeoff acceleration through the air mass is not reduced by a headwind. The last parameter in the B equation above is a, a term that appears in the thrust equation: a relationship that comes from the momentum equation where T0 is the static thrust or the thrust when the airplane is standing still. What is the maximum take off climb angle of a Boeing 737 MAX? We might find, for example, that by accepting an additional 500 feet in our takeoff ground run we can get by with a significantly smaller engine. 9.5 To obtain maximum glide distance, a heavily loaded airplane must be flown at a higher airspeed than if it is lightly loaded, 9.6 The increase in the Pr curves for a weight increase is greater at low speeds than at high speeds because the increase in. Hence, what we have done through the specific excess power relationship is nothing but a different way to get a familiar result. a. 1.11 Equilibrium is defined as "a state of balance or equality between opposing forces." 1.22 Newton's Third Law of Motion states that: For every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. 10.16 As a rule of thumb, a 5% increase in takeoff distance can be expected for every _______ of uphill slope. The cruise ceiling is the altitude at which the maximum climb rate is 300 ft/min Definition - Combat Ceiling The combat ceiling is the altitude at which the maximum rate of climb is 500 ft/sec or 2.5 m/s. Fw5| } And they may be different still in climb. Maximum rate of climb for a propeller airplane occurs: a. at L/D max b. at CLmax c. at PRmin d. at (PA-PR) max. 9 0 obj 7.14 (Reference Figure 7.2) Using Figure 7.2, find the velocity for maximum endurance for the airplane at 8,000 lbs. This isnt really much different from designing any other product that is capable of more than one task. Aviation Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for aircraft pilots, mechanics, and enthusiasts. In other words if you vary the point of contact between the line and the curve slightly, the resulting climb angle will barely change at all. 0.6 How will an uphill slope affect takeoff performance? This addition to the plot tells us the obvious in a way. Finding this value of drag would set the thrust we need for cruise. 4.16 Laminar airflow over a smooth airfoil like a wing begins at the _____________. The greatest danger(s) is that. The plane is directly over a point on the ground that is 3 nautical miles from the takeoff point and the altimeter reads 12,152 feet. Fortunately, the answer is yes. Is a condition where the tire is lifted completely above the surface of the runway, Can occur at slower speeds and rather than the water lifting the tire from the pavement, the tire slips on a thin film, 11.7 If a pilot experiences an engine failure and attempts to "stretch the glide" (i.e., increases the angle of attack) the result will be, A decrease in horizontal distance traveled, 11.8 Airline aircraft primarily use _________ to slow the aircraft after landing. We know an expression for the rate of climb for a propeller aircraf V v = P p W DV W We assume the climb angle is small enough that lif approximately equals weight. where , for example, and .The power available is a function of the propulsion system, the flight velocity, altitude, etc. 12.25 In the absence of a published procedure, what is the typical first-step recommendation in order to initiate recovery from an incipient spin in a straight-wing, general aviation aircraft? Time to Climb Between Two Altitudes How can I find the maximum climb angle of a propeller driven aircraft from a graph of vertical velocity against airspeed? 13.4 (Reference Figure 5.4) What speed is indicated at point B? 5.4 When an aircraft enters ground effect, what effect does it have on induced drag? Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. As wing loading increases the effects of turbulence and gusts in flight are minimized, smoothing out the bumps in flight. 1. We could put these limits on the same plot if we wish. 8dH})

If the coefficient of friction is 0.8, find the braking force Fb on the airplane. The maximum angle of climb occurs where there is the greatest difference between the thrust available and the thrust required. we rewrite this in terms of the ratios above to allow us to make our constraint analysis plots functions of TSL and WTO. 5.19 An aircraft will begin to experience ground effect_____________ above the surface. Cruising at V Y would be a slow way to fly. 10.17 Which of the following is the speed at which an aircraft must be accelerated at or before reaching 35 ft at the end of the runway? And it has kinetic energy, which is what kind of pressure? 8.5 Propeller aircraft get the highest angle of climb at (L/D)max. 13. Typically it takes a form such as that shown in Figure 13.7.The shortest time-to-climb occurs at the flight velocity where is a maximum. Rate of climb You need not use the actual point where the straight line touches the curve. 8.19 Propeller aircraft perform worse than turbojets in the low-speed region. If, for example, we want to look at conditions for straight and level flight we can simplify the equation knowing that: Straight and level flight: n = 1, dh/dt = 0, dV/dt = 0, giving: So for a given estimate of our designs profile drag coefficient, aspect ratio, and Oswald efficiency factor [ k = 1/(ARe)] we can plot T/W versus W/S for any selected altitude (density) and cruise speed. (More characteristic of a jet with a high thrust loading -- see diagram on this answer --. 11.4 How does an increase in altitude affect landing performance? The more efficient a plane is in things like cruise the lower its value of T/W. On the other hand, the climb curve should be plotted for optimum conditions; i.e., maximum rate of climb (minimum power required conditions for a prop aircraft) since that is the design target in climb. An iterative solution may be necessary. But unless the data is already loaded up into a spreadsheet ready for re-plotting to a new scale, there's a much faster way to solve the problem. This can then be used to find the associated speed of flight for maximum rate of climb. It only takes a minute to sign up. 4.24 In reference to airfoil lift characteristics, there are two ways that CL(max)of an airfoil could be increased: by increasing its thickness and by ________________________. 9.14 As the altitude for a given aircraft increases, the VX will ___________ and the VY will ___________. I frequently, but not always, have a severe imbalance between the two engines. We could return to the reorganized excess power relationship, and look at steady state climb. 5. max thickness. In other words, if we wanted to design an aircraft that could takeoff and land in a very short distance we can look at the takeoff and landing distance equations and identify the factors that would minimize these distances. We know that in cruise since lift must equal weight, we can select a design value of cruise lift coefficient (commonly around 0.2 to 0.3) and a desired cruise speed and altitude and solve for the needed wing area. The takeoff equation seen in an earlier chapter is somewhat complex because takeoff ground distances depend on many things, from drag coefficients to ground friction. 10.21 A _____ increase in weight results in _____ increase in takeoff distance. 5.17 An airplane with a heavy load _______________ when lightly loaded. Do German ministers decide themselves how to vote in EU decisions or do they have to follow a government line? The vehicle can get into the air with no lift at all. 6.12 The equation T= Q(V2- V1) indicates the thrust output of an engine can be increased by either increasing the mass airflow or ________________? Excess power is power available minus power required. When plotting the cruise curve in a constraint analysis plot it should be assumed that the aircraft is cruising at a desired normal cruise speed, which will be neither the top speed at that altitude nor the speed for maximum range. Do you think this is a reasonable speed for flight? Either can be used depending on the performance parameter which is most important to meeting the design specifications. 7.15 Indicated airspeed for (L/D)max will vary with altitude. The mass flow depends on, 6.5 Specific fuel consumption of a turbine engine at 35,000 feet altitude compared to that at sea level is, 6.6 Fuel flow for a jet at 100% rpm at altitude compared to that at sea level is, 6.7 A pilot is flying a jet aircraft at the speed for best range under no wind conditions. Therefore both approaches must have the same solution: when the ratio of vertical speed to airspeed is maximized, then the ratio of vertical speed to horizontal speed is also maximized. 12.2 The main difference between CL-AOA curves for straight-wing aircraft is that. Figure 9.5: James F. Marchman (2004). Note also that the units of the graph need not be the same on each axis for this method to work. A car can be designed to go really fast or to get really good gas mileage, but probably not both. 13.23 High bank angles and slower airspeeds produce ________ turn radii. T/W = (qCD0)/(W/S) + (kn2/q)(W/S) + (1/V)dh/dt + (1/g)dV/dt . It's going to be harder to get a precise answer this way, and it may end up taking you longer. 6.21 The lowest values of ct occur between 95 and 100% rpm. 13.24 If an aircraft maintaining a constant bank angle increases its airspeed while maintaining a level, coordinated turn, what will the effect be on the rate of turn (ROT)? Find the Rate of Climb. 12.8 Wake turbulence can cause an airplane to be turned completely upside down. Excess thrust is the difference between the total drag of the aircraft, and the thrust output of the powerplant. While you are at it, just the sake of curiosity you might want to also calculate the arctangent of (vertical speed / airspeed) for the same data point. 37 0 obj Of course when someone metricly assumes that one is both climbing and flying forward in m/s, that must be some airplane! For a propeller-powered airplane, at an airspeed just above stall speed and below L/D MAX. Multi-engine propeller (engines on the wings). For a propeller-powered airplane, at an airspeed just above stall speed and below L/D MAX. The above relationship means that, for a given weight of the airplane, the rate of climb depends on the difference between the power available and the power required, or the excess power. 3.9 For a cambered airfoil, the center of pressure (CP), 3.10 For a cambered airfoil, an increase in velocity results in, 3.11 A decrease in the AOA of any airfoil will result in, 3.12 The aerodynamic center (AC) is located at, 25% chord subsonically and 50% chord supersonically. Note here that the weight in the equation is the landing weight but that in calculating this landing distance for design purposes the takeoff weight is usually used for general aviation aircraft and trainers and is assumed to be 0.85 times the takeoff weight for jet transports. The only problem is that we would find that their relationships in cruise arent necessarily the same as they are in takeoff and landing. 8 0 obj We need to keep in mind that there are limits to that cruise speed. A head wind is encountered. The groundspeed must be increased over the no-wind groundspeed by the amount of the tailwind. In understanding what this really tells us we perhaps need to step back and look at the same situation another way. For example you can choose a point where the straight line crosses one of the airspeed or vertical speed indices, or where it crosses an intersection of both airspeed and vertical speed indices. Legal. On the other hand, the climb curve should be plotted for optimum conditions; i.e., maximum rate of climb (minimum power required conditions for a prop aircraft) since that is the design target in climb. 10.24 When taking off in a multi-engine aircraft, VRis usually less than V1. Both approaches are minimizing the same angle on the right triangle comprised of the vertical speed, horizontal speed, and airspeed vectors. And to add a description to the axes of a plot. 6.15 Which one of the following items does not occur at (L/D)max for a jet aircraft? With imperial units, we typically use different units for horizontal speed (knots, i.e. 13.16 (Reference Figure 14.10) What airspeed should you fly if you wish to fly a standard rate turn using 30 degrees of bank? Don't let the length of this answer fool you, it is actually the fastest path to a solution, starting from what we're given to work with in the original question. Effect of Desired Landing Characteristics on Aircraft Design Space. CC BY 4.0. To truly be expert, one must confirm the units of climb and airspeed. 12.19 Wind shear is confined only to what altitudes? 3.21 The point on the chord line where the aerodynamic force acts is the _____________. 4.21 When analyzing the air moving from the leading edge toward the trailing edge of a wing, until the air reaches the point of minimum pressure it is in a favorable pressure gradient. Or in some cases the power-to-weight ratio (P/W) is used instead of T/W. The second is that the takeoff parameter (TOP) defined for propeller aircraft is based on power requirements (specifically, horsepower requirements) rather than thrust. To see if we can climb at the desired rate over a reasonable range of altitudes we would need to look at the climb relationship: This would give us another value of thrust needed to reach the target rate of climb for a given weight and, since the equation contains power required, which is drag times speed, the wing area would also be a factor. The type of aircraft, airspeed, or other factors have no influence on the load factor. See Page 1. 11.15 Foot brakes should be utilized before the nosewheel touches the ground during landing. Figure 9.7: Kindred Grey (2021). The pilot selects the desired RPM with a leaver, and a control governor automatically changes the blade pitch to maintain a constant RPM. The maximum angle of climb would occur where there exists the greatest difference between thrust available and thrust required; i.e., for the propeller-powered airplane, the maximum excess thrust and angle of climb will occur at some speed just above the stall speed. Measure the distance from the crankshaft to the ground and subtract 9 inches to allow for safe ground clearance. The figure below (Raymer, 1992) is based on a method commonly used in industry. Lets look at how the equation can be rearranged to help us examine the performance needs in various types of flight. Now, to simplify things a little we are going to use a common substitution for the dynamic pressure: We will also define the lift coefficient in terms of lift and weight using the most general form where in a turn or other maneuver lift may be equal to the load factor n times the weight. At maximum weight it has a VY of 75 kn (139 km/h) indicated airspeed [4] providing a rate of climb of 721 ft/min (3.66 m/s). It also gives a better ride to the airplane passengers. Best rate of climb, or Vy, maximizes velocity to obtain the greatest gain in altitude over a given period of time Vy is normally used during climb, after all obstacles have been cleared It is the point where the largest power is available Occurs above L/Dmax for a jet Occurs at L/Dmax for a prop Provies more visibility over the cowling Hg and a runway temperature of 20C. The size of the turn circle as determined by the angle of bank and airspeed, The number of degrees per second that the aircraft is turning as determined by the angle of bank and airspeed, 13.12 (Reference Figure 14.10) An aircraft traveling at 150 knots and 45of bank will have a radius of turn of. Of course, it helps to do this in metric units. The steepest climb angle occurs when the ratio of vertical speed to horizontal speed is maximized. One finds the desired takeoff distance in feet on the vertical axis and projects over to the plot for the type of aircraft desired, then drops a vertical line to the TOP axis to find a value for that term. 9.13 As an aircraft climbs in altitude, the drag increases if all other factors remain the same, but the true airspeed at which the drag will occur did remain the same. Plotting it as Peter Kampf did yields the airspeed of maximum climb angle. Any spreadsheet will be able to do this. 13.25 If an aircraft maintaining a constant bank angle increases its airspeed while maintaining a level, coordinated turn, what will the effect be on the radius of the turn? Constraint analysis is an important element in a larger process called aircraft design. To get best range now the pilot must, Slow down by an amount less than the wind speed, 6.8 To obtain maximum range a jet airplane must be flown at, 6.9 Maximum rate of climb for a jet airplane occurs at, 6.10 Maximum climb angle for a jet aircraft occurs at. This is not a condition which we have studied earlier but we can get some idea of where this occurs by looking at the plot of drag versus velocity for an aircraft. What altitude gives the best endurance for the C-182? For a jet aircraft, this speed is very close to the speed at which the total minimum drag occurs. I've made the recommended changes and have decent reverse thrust. 4. chord Car tires can be designed to have high traction in mud and snow or to give great mileage at highway speeds but any attempt to design an all weather touring tire will result in a compromise with less traction than a mud and snow tire and poorer performance at high speeds than the high speed highway tire design. Turboprop aircraft are classified as power producers because: Helicopters have another power requirement over fixed wing propeller airplanes. 9.4 A lightly loaded propeller airplane will be able to glide ____________ when it is heavily loaded. In this approach a Take-Off-Parameter, TOP, is proposed to be a function of W/S, T/W, CLTO, and the density ratio sigma () where: The value of TOP is found from the chart above. With metric units for speed (meters per second), this is the case. What is the equivalent power that it is producing? 9.9 For a power-producing aircraft, an increase in weight results in a decrease of Vmax. Hg and a runway temperature of 20C. Continue searching. 12.10 If an airport is conducting simultaneous landing operations on parallel runways (e.g. 13.3 (Reference Figure 5.4) What speed is indicated at point A? In straight and level flight we know: And if we simply combine these two equations we will get the same relationship we plotted above. 7.6 The minimum drag for a jet airplane does not vary with altitude. Find the Rate of Climb. This page titled 9: The Role of Performance in Aircraft Design - Constraint Analysis is shared under a CC BY 4.0 license and was authored, remixed, and/or curated by James F. Marchman (Virginia Tech Libraries' Open Education Initiative) via source content that was edited to the style and standards of the LibreTexts platform; a detailed edit history is available upon request. Maximum Rate of Climb for a propeller-driven airplane Since the available power is constant with W, the maximum excess power, RIC occurs at the flight velocity for minimum power required therefore: An equation for the maximum rate of climb is obtained by substituting V(R/C)max Safe abort capability is assured if the takeoff is aborted prior to reaching this speed" is the definition for, 10.11 For a safe takeoff, the Critical Field Length must be no greater than the runway available. The local gravitational acceleration g is 32 fps2. xYr7

The goal of maximum wing loading may not be as obvious to the novice designer but this means the wing area is kept to a minimum which gives lower drag. One way to resolve this issue is to write our equations in terms of ratios of thrust at altitude divided by thrust at sea level and weight at altitude divided by weight at takeoff. The method normally used is called constraint analysis. In this manner, we can find values of weight, wing area, and thrust that match our desired cruise capability.
