Flight Control System Design and Analysis of a Light Sport Aircraft with Emphasis on Multibody Dynamics and Aerodynamic Analysis
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
The present contribution is a companion paper of [9] which presents a preliminary design of the flight control system of a Light Sport Aircraft (based on previous wind tunnel analysis), validation process, aerodynamic simulations in ANSYS CFX and multibody dynamics in Adams. The main purpose of this study is to obtain knowledge on simulation software’s, as Ansys and Adams, in order to design, calculate and improve the flight control mechanism of an ultralight aircraft.

Definition and discussion of the intrinsic efficiency of winglets
Three simple equations are derived to define the “Intrinsic Aerodynamic Efficiency of Winglets” independent of the horizontal extension of the winglet and independent of the winglet’s (relative) height. This Intrinsic Ae...
