  • Elements of Hypersonic Airbreather Design and Development

    Series series Mechanical Engineering (R0)
    This book sketches key design, development, and engineering issues. To think up an airbreathing hypersonic aircraft is one thing; to design, develop, and produce it is another one. Airframe-propulsion integration plays a central role, with six integration types identified. Most demanding is that of a large aircraft with both lift and propulsion located at its lower side—an approach exemplified ... Read more

  • Separated and Vortical Flow in Aircraft Wing Aerodynamics

    Basic Principles and Unit Problems

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Fluid mechanical aspects of separated and vortical flow in aircraft wing aerodynamics are treated. The focus is on two wing classes: (1) large aspect-ratio wings and (2) small aspect-ratio delta-type wings. Aerodynamic design issues in general are not dealt with.Discrete numerical simulation methods play a progressively larger role in aircraft design and development. Accordingly, in the ... Read more
