De-/anti-icing fluids are sprayed on aircraft wings to prevent dangerous loss of performance due to ice formation. The residual layers of such fluids which may either be of newtonian or non-newtonian character could also adversely effect the performance of the aircraft. Therefore it is important to investigate the stability characteristics of such fluids. Stability problem for non-newtonian fluids (power-law fluids in particular) has been solved using the linear stability theory for nearly parallel flows.

Scaling for icing wind tunnel tests andvalidation with numerical simulations Özbek Yanmaz, Gizem.; Özgen, Serkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019) Icing is one of the most dangerous hazards to be encountered by air vehicles in flight. Ice accretion, particularly on control surfaces, wings and flight data sensors usually degrades both performance and operational safety of air vehicles. Thus, it has become important in the design and certification phases of system development to evaluate performance degradation because of icing. Icing wind tunnel testing is the most convenient method considering feasibility, cost and safety. However, when full-size mode...
Production and development of de/anti icing fluids for aircraft Erdoğan, Barış; Uludağ, Yusuf; Department of Chemical Engineering (2008) Aircraft are not allowed to take off prior to cleaning of snow and ice deposits that form on their surfaces under winter conditions to refrain from compromising flight safety. Water based solutions containing mainly ethylene or propylene glycol, or both, are employed either to remove the snow/ice layers or to provide protection against deposition of these layers. The first group of solutions, i.e. de-icing fluids, are Newtonian and have generally low viscosity so that right after their application they fall...
Modelling of interaction of shock waves with analytical methods Koç, Mesut; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2022-2) In supersonic air vehicles, specially shaped air ducts are used to supply the air with required properties to the combustion chambers. Two-dimensional supersonic flow solvers used to design such geometrical shapes have become less accurate as the geometrical shape of the air duct becomes asymmetric or flow becomes three-dimensional. This problem can be overcome by solving the interaction between shock planes using analytical methods. In this study, an analytical solution model based on principles of gas dyn...
Simulation of the Transient Response of a Helicopter Turboshaft Engine to Hot-Gas Ingestion Uzol, Oğuz; Yavrucuk, İlkay (2008-06-09) Hot-Gas Ingestion (HGI) to the engines can potentially occur when a rotorcraft or a VTOL/STOVL fixed-wing aircraft is operating in close proximity to the ground. Especially for helicopters, due to the rotor downwash hot exhaust gases get recirculated into the engine inlet. Similar conditions may also occur due to the ingestion of hot exhaust gases from rocket launchers or gun fire. In this study, we present the results of a simulation of the transient response of a helicopter turboshaft engine to HGI. Speci...
Accurate position control of a flapping-wing robot enabling free-flight flow visualisation in a wind tunnel Karasek, Matej; Perçin, Mustafa; Cunis, Torbjorn; van Oudheusden, Bas W.; De Wagter, Christophe; Remes, Bart D. W.; de Croon, Guido C. H. E. (SAGE Publications, 2019-10-02) Flow visualisations are essential to better understand the unsteady aerodynamics of flapping wing flight. The issues inherent to animal experiments, such as poor controllability and unnatural flapping when tethered, can be avoided by using robotic flyers that promise for a more systematic and repeatable methodology. Here, we present a new flapping-wing micro air vehicle (FWMAV)-specific control approach that, by employing an external motion tracking system, achieved autonomous wind tunnel flight with a maxi...
