Wind tunnel testing of the IAR 99 SOIM aircraft equipped with means for discovery and control of weather risk phenomena
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper presents wind tunnel tests on an IAR 99 SOIM model equipped with means for discovery and control of weather risk phenomena. In order to obtain the aerodynamic characteristics of the new configuration of the IAR 99 SOIM necessary for its validation, a test program has been conducted in the transonic wind tunnel with a 1:14 scale model of the respective configuration. Reactive unguided projectile launchers, gas generators and containers for other equipment needed to detect and combat extreme weather were attached on the 1:14 scale IAR 99 SOIM model.

Analytical solutions of the simplified Mathieu’s equation
Consider a second order differential linear periodic equation. The periodic coefficient is an approximation of the Mathieu’s coefficient. This equation is recast as a first-order homogeneous system. For this system we ob...
Wind Tunnel Testing of Passive High-Lift Systems
This paper presents experimental results obtained with passive high lift systems using a combination of smart flap kinematics and vortex generators. A mid-scale 2.5D wind tunnel model based on DLR-F15 is tested in INCAS...
Active Space Debris Removal System
Since the start of the space era, more than 5000 launches have been carried out, each carrying satellites for many disparate uses, such as Earth observation or communication. Thus, the space environment has become conges...
A parametric study of a thick, incompressible flow over a curved surface
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the lift phenomenon produced by the Coanda effect when a fluid flows over a curved surface. A secondary goal was to quantify and to integrate it on super circulation wing aircr...
