5、ate, U.S. Army Air Mobility R however, the take-off and landing configurations required a high-lift tail.INTRODUCTIONThe externally blown flap (EBF) concept considered for use on a jet-powered STOLtransport has been investigated on various engine and model configurations. (See refs. 1to 7.) Very few
6、 investigations to date have considered the effect of engine type, size,and fan-exit location on the aerodynamic characteristics of the configuration. This wind-tunnel investigation was conducted to determine these effects with five available enginesimulators. Three sets of engine simulators were de
7、signed to represent bypass ratio 3.2,bypass ratio 6.2, and bypass ratio 10.0 engines. The bypass ratio (BPR) as designated iscorrect; however, the physical size and locations are not necessarily optimum for thisProvided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from
8、 IHS-,-,-research model. The BPR of these engine simulators does not describe in any way thesize, horizontal position, or vertical position of the simulator. The data presented for theBPR 3.2 engine configuration were obtained from reference 8. One of these simulators wasdesigned to represent the ex
9、haust characteristics of a daisy-nozzle exhaust shape. Thisshape was representative of a design such as the ones in references 9, 10, and 11 whichreduce exhaust velocity near the flaps and therefore reduce jet-impingement noise. Thismultilobe nozzle, which will be referred to as the daisy-nozzle eng
10、ine, was sized so thatthe inlet and exit areas would match the BPR 6.2 engine. One parameter which was notheld constant was the relative chordwise position of the engine exhaust with respect to theflap system. In an attempt to determine whether there was an effect of the relativechordwise position o
11、f the engine exhaust, an extension was added to the BPR 6.2 fan cowlso that its exit would be positioned at the same relative chordwise location as the daisy-nozzle fan exit.The investigation was conducted in the Langley V/STOL tunnel. The longitudinaldata are presented at several thrust coefficient
12、s with flap deflections which represent acruise configuration, a take-off configuration, and a landing configuration. The thrust-removed longitudinal data and isolated engine exhaust pressure decay characteristics arealso presented.SYMBOLSThe longitudinal aerodynamic data in this report are referred

This model was identical to the model in reference 8. (See r
20、ef. 8 for all airfoilordinates.) Photographs of the model showing the daisy-nozzle engine simulator installedand the triple-slotted flap system are presented in figure 3.The offtboard leading-edge slat element had an airfoil section that was a 25-percent-chord St. Cyr 178 modified to t = 0.0065c at
21、the trailing edge. This slat element extendedfrom the outboard engine pylon to the wing tip. Two inboard slat elements had an airfoilsection that was a 15-percent-chord St. Cyr 178 modified to t = 0.0065c at the trailingedge. The innermost slat element extended from the fuselage to the inboard engin
22、e pylon,and the third slat element extended between the inboard and outboard engine pylons. Inthe deployed position, the slat gap was 0.015c.The wing flaps were triple-slotted, full-span flaps with 15-, 20-, and 22.5-percentlocal wing chord for the first, second, and third elements, respectively. Th
23、e first andsecond flap elements had a St. Cyr 178 airfoil section modified slightly to provide a finitetrailing-edge thickness and to fit the upper surface contours of the wing in the retractedposition. The third flap element had a NACA 4412 airfoil section modified to t = 0.0045cat the trailing edg
24、e. All flap-slat gaps were 0.015c. The geometric characteristics ofthe wing leading-edge slats and flaps are presented in figure 4.The geometric characteristics of the horizontal tail are shown in figure 5. Thehorizontal tail was pivoted about 0.555 root chord with an incidence range of 150 in50 inc
25、rements. It had a 15-percent local-chord leading-edge slat set at -400. The35-percent local-chord elevator had three deflections relative to the tail chord: 00-250, and -500.Four air ejector engine simulators were used to represent each fan-jet propulsionsystem. Each engine simulator was a two-part
26、ejector with individual air-supply linesand control valves designed to provide the efflux of the fan- and gas-generator stages. Atypical ejector assembly is presented in figure 6. Each engine simulator was fitted withfive separate cowl assemblies intended to represent the five different engine confi
27、gura-tions. (See fig. 7.)The bypass ratio (BPR) is defined as the ratio of total fan-exit mass flow to totalgas-generator-exit mass flow. The five separate cowl assemblies fitted to these ejectorsimulators were designed to represent a BPR 6.2 daisy-nozzle engine, a BPR 6.2 engine,a modified BPR 6.2
28、engine, a BPR 10.0 engine, and a BPR 3.2 engine. The daisy-nozzle4Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-engine simulator was designed to represent an engine whose exit and inlet area areidentical to those of the BPR 6.2 engine. This type of
29、 nozzle exit is designed to increasethe velocity decay characteristics of the engine and thereby reduce the velocity at theflaps, which, in turn, reduces flap-impingement noise. Although the inlet and exit areasof the BPR 6.2 and daisy-nozzle engines were identical, the longitudinal positions of the
30、irfan exits relative to the flap system were not. The BPR 6.2 engine simulator was modi-fied during the investigation. An extension was added which relocated the fan exit at thesame relative location as that of the daisy-nozzle engine simulator. This engine simulatorwill be referred to as the modifi
31、ed BPR 6.2 engine simulator. (See fig. 7.)The model was mounted in the Langley V/STOL tunnel on a sting-supported six-component strain-gage balance for measurements of the total forces and moments.TEST AND CORRECTIONSThis investigation was conducted in the Langley V/STOL tunnel. The free-streamdynam
32、ic pressure for the entire investigation was 814 N/m2 (17 lb/ft2). The Reynoldsnumber (based on wing Z and free-stream velocity) was approximately 0.697 x 106.The data presented in this report are not corrected for wind-tunnel wall effects. Sincethe corrections calculated by the method of reference

Four radial positions were chosen for the5Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-daisy nozzle and two radial positions were chosen for the other four engine simulators.These profiles were repeated at various downstream loc

39、figurations was tested in the cruise configuration, thetake-off configuration, and the landing configuration at an angle-of-attack range from -40to 240. Each configuration was tested at a thrust coefficient range from 0 to 4 and atvarious horizontal-tail incidences.The cruise configuration was defin
40、ed as the model with 00 flaps, no wing leading-edge slats, no horizontal-tail leading-edge slats, and elevator set at 00. The take-offconfiguration was defined as the model with the elements of the three-element flap sys-tem set at 00, 200, and 400; wing leading-edge slat deployed at 500; horizontal
41、-tail leading-o 0edge slat deployed at -400; and elevator set at -25. The landing configuration wasdefined as the model with the flap system elements set at 150, 350, and 550; wing leading-edge slats deployed at 500; horizontal-tail leading-edge slats deployed at -400; and ele-vator set at -250.
