“Flying Wing Paper Model” II. TUJUAN a. Mencari CL dan CDi dari berbagai jenis sayap b. Mencari efek weight terhadap CL dan CDi c. Mengetahui efek head wind dan tail wind terhadap CL dan CDi III. LANDASAN TEORI
3.1 Parameter – parameter 1. Wing reference (or planform) area (SW or Sref or S)
The wing is measured from the centerline to the last rib to get the half-span of the wing. The wing area is calculated by multiplying the half-span by 2 to get the full span and multiplying by the chord to get the area.

The definition of wing area is not obvious and different companies define the areas differently. Here, we always take the reference wing area to be that of the trapezoidal portion of the wing projected into the centerline. The leading and trailing edge chord extensions are not included in this definition and for some airplanes, such as Boeing's Blended Wing Body, the difference can be almost a factor of two between the "real" wing area and the "trap area". Some companies use reference wing areas that include portions of the chord extensions, and in some studies, even tail area is included as part of the reference area. For simplicity, we use the trapezoidal area in this text. | | | Reference Wing Area | Exposed Wing Area | Area Affected by Flaps |
In addition to the reference area, we use the exposed planform area depicted above in the calculation of skin friction drag and the wetted area which is a bit more than twice the exposed planform area.

3. Vertical position relative to the fuselage (high, mid, or low wing)
4. Horizontal position relative to the fuselage
5. Cross section (or airfoil)
6. Aspect ratio (AR)

    In order for this equipment to assist one in measuring the speed of sound, the speaker and microphone are positioned inside the hollow tube with the speaker stationary at one end. The microphone is able to be moved and set a chosen distance from the speaker, from almost touching to 1 meter. The signal generator is connected to the speaker by a pair of wires. From this pair of wires, another pair of wires connects the signal generator to the frequency meter. A set of wires also run from the signal generator to the oscilloscope. A separate set of wires is connected from the oscilloscope to the microphone inside the tube. The set up of the equipment allows for the output of the signal meter to be read and measured by the frequency meter while being led to the speaker. This input causes the speaker to vibrate, which produces sound waves inside the tube. These sound waves, picked up by the microphone, are then sent to the oscilloscope as a signal. A pattern is displayed on the screen of the oscilloscope. With the signals in phase, the patterned displayed is a straight diagonal line. With…

    The areas researched are (1) obtaining a management degree, (2) becoming a licensed pilot, (3) government regulations, (4) aviation finances and (5) aircraft maintenance. The suggested type of degree would be bachelors in airport management and/or professional aerodynamics as well as participation in internships and airport executive professional organizations. A pilot’s license is not only recommended but highly suggested. The manager needs to be very knowledgeable and well versed in the area of government regulations such as the FAA and NSTB. Aviation finances are a special area of focus because of the importance of running a fiscally responsible organization. Finally, aircraft maintenance understanding is the main area that will be detrimental to the success of the aeronautical prevalence.…

    When you hear the word aerodynamics, the first thing that comes to mind is airplanes and pilots. There are other applications that apply. For instance, the passing of a football. A football that is thrown into the air has inertia. This is the tendency of an object in motion to remain in motion. But because of gravity the ball is pulled down and resistance that slows the ball down. A quarterback through the motions of his and body, must balance the forward momentum that he gives the ball, fighting gravity and air resistance that pulls and slows it down.…

She pulled seven people out of the plane, and went back in to grab a toy for a crying baby. The plane exploded soon after.” This story of humility and sacrifice can be compared to literary and also non-fictional people and can be applied in many different ways.…

    We here describe the implementation of the vortex lattice method for two-dimensional flows past thin airfoils. The method is even more useful for three-dimensional wings, i.e., for the flow past wings of finite span, but that problem is not considered here. Instead, the reader is referred to standard aerodynamics texts, e.g., [2]. In this numerical procedure to solve the thin-airfoil problem, we place a finite number of discrete vortices along the chord line, with the boundary condition that the induced vertical velocity dyc v= − α, (1) dx be enforced at selected control points to determine the vortex strengths. Equation (1) simply says that the net velocity vector, comprised of components due to the free stream, at angle of attack α to the chord line, plus that induced by the point vortices, is tangent to the camber line whose slope is dyc / dx; the magnitude of the free stream velocity is taken to be unity. Thus, we discretize the chord line into a finite number N of segments, or panels, as illustrated in Fig. 1 (a). On each panel we place a point vortex and a control point, as illustrated in Fig. 1 (b). The most accurate results are obtained by locating the vortex one-quarter of the panel length, and the control point three-quarters of the panel length, aft of the leading edge of the panel. (This strategy can be shown to reproduce the exact results of analytical…

    Designs of A380

    Airbus A380 is commonly known as the jumbo aircraft as its capacity is up to 850 persons which weight almost 560 tons. As the maximum length of wingspan which is internationally recognize and can accommodate in most international airport is 80m, so A380 need to gain maximum lift with a length limit of only 80m. In order to overcome this limitation, the engineers observed the wings of eagle for some time and they found out that the end of the wing is folded slightly upwards. Next, they made out a prototype with a winglet on the end of the wing and placed it in a wind tunnel. They found out that the winglets of the wing can reduce the wing tip vortices which act as a drag that reduce the life force. This winglets design successfully overcome the limitation of short wingspan which cannot support such a heavy weight by reducing the drag and increase the lift.…
