Numerical Transonic Buffet Analysis for the XRF1 Transport Aircraft at Forced Wing Oscillations
摘要
The paper investigates transonic buffet for the XRF1 aircraft using Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes simulations at forced wing oscillations in the 4th bending mode at three amplitudes: \(A_{tip}=\{0.001, 0.01, 0.03 \} \cdot s\) , with the wing halfspan s. Flow conditions are based on experiments in the European Transonic Windtunnel, while wing eigenforms and -frequencies of the wind tunnel model are determined by a Ground Vibration Test. The mean surface pressure coefficient \(c_{p,mean}\) and the root mean square pressure \(c_{p,rms}\) indicate: The forced motion of the 4th wing bending mode leads to a harmonic shock oscillation over the whole wing. A power spectral density analysis shows a broadband answer of the fluid onto single frequency forcing. Dynamic mode decomposition of the forced motion finds a flow mode representing the second harmonic of the forcing frequency for all forcing amplitudes. For the third harmonic, mixing of a buffet mode with the fluid mode from the forced motion occurs.
