Derive the equation of force and moment coefficients with the help of given equations.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The equation of normal force is,

N'=LETE(pucosθ+τusinθ)dsu+LETE(plcosθτlsinθ)dsl

The equation of axial force is,

A'=LETE(pusinθ+τucosθ)dsu+LETE(plsinθ+τlcosθ)dsl

The equation of the moment about leading edge per unit span is,

MLE'=LETE[(pucosθ+τusinθ)x(pusinθτucosθ)y]dsu+LETE[(plcosθ+τlsinθ)x+(plsinθ+τlcosθ)y]dsl

Here, pu and pl is the pressure upper and below the surface of the body and τuandτl is the shear stressupper and below the surface of the body respectively.

Calculation:

The calculation for coefficient of normal force (1.15) is as follows:

The equation of normal force is N'=LETE(pucosθ+τusinθ)dsu+LETE(plcosθτlsinθ)dsl

Fundamentals of Aerodynamics, Chapter 1, Problem 1.2P

Fig:

Nomenclature for the integration of pressure and shear stress distributions over a two-dimensional body surface.

From figure:

dscosθ=dxdssinθ=dy

Then, normal force per unit span is

N'=LETE(pupl)dx+LETE(τu+τl)dyN'=LETE((pup)(plp))dx+LETE(τu+τl)dy

Now, divide by qS=qc(1)

N'qc=1cLETE((pupq)(plpq))dx+1cLETE(τu+τlq)dy

Here,

Normal force coefficient cn=N'qc

Pressure coefficient cp=ppq

Skin friction coefficient cf=τq

Thus, the equation can be written as:

cn=1c0c(cplcpu)dx+1c0c(cfu+cfl)dyor,cn=1c[0c(cpl-cpu)dx+0c(cfu+cfl)dy].................(eq1.15)

Now the calculation for coefficient of axial force (1.16) is as follows:

The equation of axial force is A'=LETE(pusinθ+τucosθ)dsu+LETE(plsinθ+τlcosθ)dsl

From figure:

dscosθ=dxdssinθ=dy

Then,

A'=LETE(pupl)dy+LETE(τu+τl)dxA'=LETE((pup)(plp))dy+LETE(τu+τl)dx

Divide by qS=qc(1)

A'qc=1cLETE((pupq)(plpq))dy+1cLETE(τu+τlq)dx

Here,

Axial force coefficient ca=A'qc

Pressure coefficient cp=ppq

Skin friction coefficient cf=τq

Then, the above equation can be written as:

ca=1c[0c(cpu-cpl)dy+0c(cfu+cfl)dy]......................................(eq1.16)

And, the calculation for coefficient of moment force (1.17) is as follows:

The equation of the moment about leading edge per unit span is,

MLE'=LETE(pupl)xdxLETE(τu+τl)xdy+LETE(pupl)ydy+LETE(τu+τl)ydxMLE'=LETE[(pup)(plp)]xdxLETE(τu+τl)xdy+LETE[(pup)(plp)]ydy+LETE(τu+τl)ydx

Divide by qc2 :

MLE'qc2=1c2LETE[(pupq)(plpq)]xdx1c2LETE(τu+τlq)xdy+1c2LETE[(pupq)(plpq)]ydy+1c2LETE(τu+τlq)ydx

Here,

Coefficient of moment cm=MLE'qc2

Pressure coefficient cp=ppq

Skin friction coefficient cf=τq

Then, the above equation can be written as:

cMLE'=1c20c[cpu-cpl]xdx-1c20c(cfu+cfl)xdy+1c20c[cpu-cpl]ydy+1c20c(cfu+cfl)ydx.................(eq1.17)
