Three-dimensional time-marching aeroelastic analyses using an unstructured-grid Euler method

Abstract

The modifications to a 3D implicit, upwind, unstructured-grid Euler code for aeroelastic analysis of complete aircraft configurations described involve the addition of structural equations of motion for their simultaneous time integration with the governing flow equations. A detailed description of the time-marching aeroelastic procedure and comparisons with experimental data are presented, to provide an assessment of capabilities. Flutter results are shown for an isolated 45-deg sweptback wing and an SST with a fuselage, clipped delta wing, and two identical rearward-mounted nacelles. Comparisons between computed and experimental flutter characteristics show good agreement.
