Development of Slat-gap and Slat-cove Filler Treatments for Noise Reduction Assessment on the High Lift Common Research Model in the NASA LaRC 14x22

Airframe noise is an important issue during the approach and landing phases of flight because engines are throttled back, and airframe sources become an equal or greater contributor to environmental noise. The leading-edge slat component of the high-lift system for transport aircraft has been identified as a prominent source of airframe noise. Noise production mechanisms and potential treatments to mitigate airframe noise have been areas of active research for nearly three decades. Two promising technologies for slat noise reduction are the slat-gap filler (SGF) and slat-cove filler (SCF). Previous work was done using a 2D section of a transport class aircraft wing to demonstrate their feasibility via benchtop and computational models. A wind tunnel test campaign was recently undertaken to test the SGF and SCF technologies in a flight-like environment by installing dynamically scaled treatments on the 10%-scale High-Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL), which is representative of a commercial twin-aisle transport aircraft. Advancement of the SGF and SCF technologies to overcome challenges of integration with 3D airframe structures, computational simulations of the CRM-HL predicting the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance and structural loads, and design of wind tunnel model hardware with features accommodating noise treatments were conducted in parallel. Details of innovations in the SGF and SCF technologies for 3D airframe feasibility will be described. The loads the treatments must sustain in flight and the influence of those loads on the design is also discussed. Finally, the design of wing leading-edge assemblies to treat the 10% CRM-HL with dynamically scaled SGF and SCF components is presented. The treatments were successfully tested in 2020/2021 providing a demonstration of leading-edge noise reduction using components that would allow slat articulation.

Gecko Mobility Aids for a Common Habitat Architecture

Spacecraft large enough for crew to move around inside them have traditionally used handrails and foot restraints to enable crew mobility. The mass of this hardware can become significant in large spacecraft such as the Common Habitat. Additionally, handrails and foot restraints in a multi-gravity habitat are trip hazards when the habitat is in a gravity environment. Further, ISS crew have noted risks of breaking ankles and wrists when using handrails for translation and have noted places where not enough handrails are present. Robotic gecko-derived grippers developed by JPL to retrieve satellites can be adapted to crew-worn pads that can adhere to surfaces to enable crew translation in microgravity. This technology will help to eliminate the need for handrails and foot restraints for mobility in crewed microgravity spacecraft cabins. It has the potential to achieve significant mass reductions in future space habitats, with application to suborbital flight, LEO, cislunar space, interplanetary space, the Moon, and Mars. Additionally, it can prevent crew injury and discomfort. Project goals and objectives are to prepare gecko uniform prototypes for use in multi-gravity testing and conduct initial investigations into human factors of postures and motions needed for intravehicular activity (IVA) translation and restraint in multiple gravity environments, without the use of handrails or foot restraints. Gecko grippers have been tested for use as robotic end effectors terrestrially, on microgravity aircraft, and aboard the ISS. Using the grippers as a body-mounted system to achieve IVA crew mobility is a new application that has not been pursued outside of this effort. This work will continue paper studies performed by NASA student interns by developing physical prototypes of spacecraft crew uniforms with gecko-derived body-mounted grippers. Clothing prototypes may include long sleeves, short sleeves, long pants, shorts, gloves, and/or booties equipped with gecko gripper pads. Forward work is to test these uniforms in a 1g environment to verify that the design does not introduce obstructions, trip hazards, or other consequences when used in terrestrial gravity. Based on the 1g test results, the uniform prototypes will be refined, and a test plan developed for testing at 0g, (1/6)g, and (3/8)g.

Wind Tunnel Testing of AFC over a Deflected Aileron on the High-Lift Common Research Model

Active flow control (AFC) using discrete fluidic actuators distributed along the span, just upstream of the deflected aileron of the 10% scale high-lift version of the Common Research Model (CRM-HL), was evaluated during a wind tunnel test in the NASA Langley 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel. For this set of experiments, a new outboard section was fabricated incorporating a deflectable aileron. Aileron deflection angles of 0, 7.5, 16, and 25 were investigated. This experimental investigation is in response to a recent study by Boeing potential to use AFC with a drooped aileron during takeoff to improve lift-to-drag ratio (L/D) by as much as 5%, depending on AFC mass flow rate. AFC is used at deflection angles above the nominal deflection of 7.5 to control the resulting flow separation that occurs and potentially improve L/D. Improvements in aircraft low-speed L/D can affect vehicle range and/or payload. Tuft flow visualization data, steady and unsteady surface pressure data, and force and moment data are used to compare the flowfields with and without AFC. Parameters varied include actuator momentum coefficient and aileron deflection angle. The surface pressure and tuft flow visualization results indicate that without AFC, the flow over a majority of the aileron upper surface is separated for aileron deflection angles larger than 7.5. When AFC is applied, the flow is reattached to the aileron. Force and moment results show that a local increase in lift leads to an increase in L/D of at least 3.5% using mass flow rates thought to be available from air sources onboard a commercial transport.

Aeroelastic Stability Assessment Methodology and Application to Slat Noise Treatments on the High-Lift Common Research Model

This work supports a larger effort at NASA to reduce airframe noise and, thus, environmental noise around airports. The leading-edge slat of conventional high-lift systems is a prominent source of airframe noise, and two technologies were previously identified as promising for noise reduction without significant aerodynamic or weight penalty: the slat cove filler (SCF) and the slat gap filler (SGF). NASA fabricated a 10%-scale semispan aircraft model for wind tunnel testing based upon the High-Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL). NASA embarked on a test campaign with the 10% CRM-HL to determine the noise reduction effectiveness and other performance metrics of 3D SCF and SGF treatments in flow conditions representative of flight. The highly flexible SCF and SGF treatments posed a risk to the model and aeroelastic instability would compromise research integrity, so aeroelastic stability assessment was required. This work briefly describes the 10% CRM-HL, design of the SCF and SGF treatments to the model, and supporting fluid structure interaction (FSI) research. Relations for static and dynamic aeroelastic similitude are then developed for convenience of reference, and simplifications are introduced of particular utility to the cases considered in this study. The similitude relations are employed to assess the stability of the treatments under wind tunnel flow conditions based upon known behaviors from the supporting research. It is shown that the treatments are safe for test under the anticipated wind tunnel flow conditions with significant margins/factors of safety. It is furthermore demonstrated that the SCF is more susceptible to aeroelastic instability than the SGF, which has implications for flight feasibility.

NASA 5.2%-Scale High Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL) Test in the National Transonic Facility (NTF)

Problem: Predicting CL,max and assessing transition, turbulence models, and Reynolds number effect predictions in CFD requires wind tunnel data for comparison. Objective: Expand the CFD validation database by running multiple models designed using the same reference geometry in various wind tunnels around the world. The wind tunnel data and model geometry will be open source to allow for CFD validation use. Approach: Run the NASA 5.2%-scale High Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL) semi-span model at the National Transonic Facility (NTF). Test the model at chord Reynolds numbers (Rec) between 1.6 million and 30 million and at varying Q/Es to assess Reynolds number effects and aeroelasticity affects on the model, while collecting force and moment, pressure and wing deformation data. Test the model with ice shapes installed on the leading edges. Results: Ran eight model configurations, including four landing, two landing with ice shapes installed, and two takeoff configurations. Ran in air (120°F) and nitrogen operations (-50°F, -180°F and -250°F) at 7 different chord Reynolds numbers. The data compare well with previous tests of the same model at DLR (The Germany Aerospace Center) and the 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel (14x22). Significance: Provided valuable high Reynolds number data on a high lift configuration to the worldwide research community. Provide icing data at flight Reynolds number to the research community.

Testing of High-Lift Common Research Model at Takeoff Configurations

The 10% scale High-Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL) was tested in the NASA Langley 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel (14x22) in support of the NASA Advanced Air Transport Technology (AATT) Project. The main objective of the wind tunnel test was to improve the aerodynamic performance of a representative aircraft model during takeoff operations using localized active flow control (AFC). This approach involves the application of AFC concepts locally to a relatively small region; therefore, it has the potential to cause minimal architectural change to current aircraft configurations. In addition, the power requirements of localized AFC could be supplied with onboard air resources. Recent exploratory studies identified the aileron as a target area for improving lift-to-drag ratio using localized AFC concepts. The idea is to deflect the ailerons beyond their nominal deflection angles and use AFC to reduce flow separation that occurs at larger aileron deflections. Several AFC concepts with different configurations were evaluated with the goal of achieving high-lift performance improvement. The assessment of AFC configurations is reported in a companion paper. The focus of the current paper is to report the data relevant to the CRM-HL takeoff configurations and establish a reference case for localized AFC application. Three takeoff configurations —reference, nominal, and high-lift improved—are documented. These takeoff configurations are obtained by varying aileron deflection. Wind tunnel measurements including surface static pressures and force and moment data are presented. In addition, surface tuft flow visualization, mainly on the aileron, is provided to understand the flow characteristics developed over the aileron during takeoff.

NASA 5.2%-Scale Semispan High Lift Common Research Model Wind Tunnel Test at the 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel

A wind tunnel test of the NASA 5.2%-scale Semispan High Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL) was conducted at the 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel (14x22) in the fall of 2022. The main purpose of the test was a model checkout before shipping it overseas. The model was shipped to Germany in the spring of 2023, and the team wanted to be sure that instrumentation in the model was working, all of the model parts fit together well, and model changes could be done smoothly, as designed while installed in a wind tunnel. Force and moment and pressure data were collected during the test, and while these data were a secondary objective, they can be used for for tunnel-to-tunnel verification of the model, and for database supplementation for the NASA CRM-HL ecosystem. The test was run from August 15, 2022 through September 8, 2022. Eight configurations were tested at Mach 0.2 and 0.26, over an alpha range from -4deg to +24deg. All of the configurations that were tested accomplished testing of all model parts. This test campaign was a unique opportunity to test a complicated model design in a wind tunnel that is less expensive to test in and has easier model access than the tunnel that it was designed to run in. The test was invaluable in providing lessons learned about building up and running the model, and the model was returned to the model manufacturer from December 2022 to February 2023 for updates to make model changes easier, to make design fixes on the model, and to do clean up work on the model.

Active Flow Control Enhanced Aileron of the High-Lift Common Research Model at Takeoff Condition

An experimental investigation was conducted in the NASA Langley 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel on the NASA 10% scale High-Lift Common Research Model (CRM-HL) to improve the high-lift aerodynamic performance of the takeoff configuration. Active flow control (AFC) was applied at the aileron hinge line to control flow separation at high aileron deflection angles ( δ a ) to increase lift-to-drag ratio (R/J). Improvements in low speed R/J can increase vehicle payload and/or range resulting in a more efficient vehicle. Aileron deflection angles of 0°, 7.5°, 16°, and 25° were investigated. Flow control was applied to the two largest aileron deflections, which are considered the high-lift (HL) improved takeoff configurations. A companion paper will discuss baseline flow characteristics of the CRM-HL at the three takeoff conditions: reference, nominal, and HL-improved. In this paper, we focus on the aerodynamic improvement obtained when AFC was applied to δ a = 16° relative to the nominal configuration, δ a = 7.5°. Multiple flow control parameters, including actuator type, spacing, and intensity, were investigated to evaluate the efficiency of the actuation system. The different AFC configurations tested were assessed with tuft visualization, steady surface pressure data, and force and moment data. The results indicated that all actuation types and spacings examined led to an increase in lift across the range of angles of attack investigated. Flow separation was mitigated with the injection of momentum at the aileron hinge line. The configurations with the smallest spacing produced the highest improvement in L/D . Steady jet actuation showed higher efficiency but similar aerodynamic performance when compared to the sweeping jet actuators. This work was performed in support of the NASA Advanced Air Transport Technology (AATT) Project.

Controversy and consensus: common ground and best practices for life cycle assessment of emerging technologies

This manuscript explores six controversial topics regarding LCA of emerging technologies: (1) appropriate use of LCA, (2) uncertainty assessment, (3) comparison with incumbents, (4) adopting standards, (5) system scale-up, and (6) stakeholder engagement. These topics encompass key issues vigorously debated during a series of workshop-style discussions convened by the LCA of Emerging Technologies Research Network (currently hosted by ACLCA). This paper represents the main points of support and opposition for a declarative resolution representing each topic, along with points of consensus, held amongst research network of LCA practitioners and experts. These debates and associated open questions are intended to build awareness amongst practitioners and decision-makers of the common challenges associated with assessing emerging technologies, while fostering evidence-based and context-informed discussions that are both transparent and impactful for the broader community.

Networks of electrochemical oxidation of common lithium-ion Battery solvents revealed by NMR spectroscopy

Raising the upper cutoff voltage of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) to increase energy density often exceeds the electrolyte’s anodic stability limit, accelerating degradation and creating a major durability tradeoff. Designing electrolytes that can sustain long-term high-voltage cycling requires a clearer understanding of the fundamental mechanisms occurring when commercial carbonate solvents oxidize. Here, to this end, simplified single-salt, single-solvent formulations of LiClO 4 and LiPF 6 in dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethylene carbonate (EC), or ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) were anodically electrolyzed on inert electrodes and monitored for extended periods of time using 1 H, 13 C, 19 F, and 35 Cl nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The controlled environment of the experiments, coupled to the unique sensitivity of NMR, unveiled novel metastable intermediates and the formation of branching networks of products with temporal evolution. Oxidation of the pristine solvent primarily proceeds through a radical pathway that also produces highly reactive protons but faces competition from a second pathway involving a radical carbocation intermediate. In all cases, the intermediates follow a variety of downstream pathways that can intersect with each other. The concomitant network of reactions represents a significant increase in complexity compared to common descriptions in the literature, yet, critically, it helps explain the wide range of products typically identified in electrolyte oxidation in complete cells. The results highlight the need for refocusing fundamental research on anodic stability to analysis of the hierarchy of reaction networks to better inform efforts to mitigate the detrimental effects on battery performance, including prevention and harvesting of proton and radical products.

Common Column Identification for Table Similarity Detection in Electrified Transportation Data Lakes

Electrified transportation often requires researchers and operators to interact with datasets from a wide range of sources and disciplines, such as transportation, power systems, public health, policies, and regulations. These datasets vary in quality and format, making it difficult to understand, preprocess, and identify key columns representing real-world entities or values for indexing and joining, which can negatively impact downstream analysis and operation. Existing solutions are limited, requiring extensive manual customization or data expertise to utilize. In this article, we propose a multi-layered approach to automatically identify key columns to expedite preprocessing and aid in analysis of electrified transportation data. Our method leverages a dynamic ontology to identify common fields and an information theory-based strategy for edge cases that are difficult to generalize. Evaluations on a number of datasets from data.gov and kaggle.com show improved performance of our methods over several baseline techniques, and our ablation analyses illustrate the efficacy of individual components of our method. Our case studies also demonstrate that our methods have the potential to improve analysis of electrified transportation data and aid in automatic integration of such datasets.

The Explosive Hazards of Icosahedral Carboranes and Dodecaborate with Common Oxidizers and Salts

Carboranes find use in a wide variety of applications ranging from specialty catalysts to medicinal uses. Certain functionalized carboranes are described as explosive materials, although their nonfunctionalized precursors are regarded as inherently stable and not explosive. Herein, we report new findings on the sensitization of nonfunctionalized 12-vertex ortho-, meta-, and para-carboranes as well as dodecaborate in physical mixtures with several common inorganic salts. These mixtures were evaluated for explosive properties with drop hammer impact tests, friction tests, and differential scanning calorimetry thermal gravimetric analysis (DSC-TGA). Results indicate explosive sensitization to mechanical stimuli for the nonfunctionalized carboranes tested with a wide variety of inorganic salts, especially oxidizers. Sensitization of these compounds has not previously been reported, and raising awareness to the broader scientific community on this matter is warranted, especially as several of the mixtures evaluated are more sensitive to mechanical stimuli than primary explosives such as lead azide or pentaerythritol tetranitrate.

High-throughput dataset of impurity adsorption on common catalysts in biomass upgrading applications

Abstract An extensive dataset consisting of adsorption energies of pernicious impurities present in biomass upgrading processes on common catalysts and support materials has been generated. This work aims to inform catalyst and process development for the conversion of biomass-derived feedstocks to fuels and chemicals. A high-throughput workflow was developed to execute density functional theory calculations for a diverse set of atomic (Al, B, Ca, Cl, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, N, Na, P, S, Si, Zn) and molecular (COS, H 2 S, HCl, HCN, K 2 O, KCl, NH 3 ) species on 35 unique surfaces for transition-metal (Ag, Au, Co, Cu, Fe, Ir, Ni, Pd, Pt, Re, Rh, Ru) and metal-oxide (Al 2 O 3 , MgO, anatase-TiO 2 , rutile-TiO 2 , ZnO, ZrO 2 ) catalysts and supports. Approximately 3,000 unique adsorption geometries and corresponding adsorption energies were obtained.

Personalized Tucker Decomposition: Modeling Commonality and Peculiarity on Tensor Data

In this paper, we propose a personalized Tucker decomposition (perTucker) to address the limitations of traditional tensor decomposition methods in capturing heterogeneity across different datasets. perTucker decomposes tensor data into shared global components and personalized local components. We introduce an order orthogonality assumption and develop a proximal gradient regularized block coordinate descent algorithm guaranteed to converge to a stationary point. The unique and common representations learned by perTucker reveal intrinsic statistical patterns in data and provide valuable information for a wide range of downstream analytics, including anomaly detection, source classification, and clustering. We demonstrate perTucker’s effectiveness through a simulation study and two case studies on solar flare detection and tonnage signal classification.
