Comparison of Theodorsen's Unsteady Aerodynamic Forces with Doublet Lattice Generalized Aerodynamic Forces

This paper identifies the unsteady aerodynamic forces and moments for a typical section contained in the NACA Report No. 496, "General Theory of Aerodynamic Instability and the Mechanism of Flutter," by Theodore Theodorsen. These quantities are named Theodorsen's aerodynamic forces (TAFs). The TAFs are compared to the generalized aerodynamic forces (GAFs) for a very high aspect ratio wing (AR = 20) at zero Mach number computed by the doublet lattice method. Agreement between TAFs and GAFs is very-good-to-excellent. The paper also reveals that simple proportionality relationships that are known to exist between the real parts of some GAFs and the imaginary parts of others also hold for the real and imaginary parts of the corresponding TAFs.

A program to compute three-dimensional subsonic unsteady aerodynamic characteristics using the doublet lattic method, L216 (DUBFLX). Volume 1: Engineering and usage

The program input presented consists of configuration geometry, aerodynamic parameters, and modal data; output includes element geometry, pressure difference distributions, integrated aerodynamic coefficients, stability derivatives, generalized aerodynamic forces, and aerodynamic influence coefficient matrices. Optionally, modal data may be input on magnetic file (tape or disk), and certain geometric and aerodynamic output may be saved for subsequent use.

A doublet lattice method for the determination of rotor induced empennage vibration airloads. Analysis description and program documentation

An efficient state-of-the-art method was developed to determine the unteady vibratory airloads produced by the interaction of the main rotor wake with a helicopter empennage. This method was incorporated into a computer program, Rotor Induced Empennage Vibration Analysis (RIEVA). The program requires the main rotor wake position and the strength of the vortices locates near the empennage surfaces. A nonlinear lifting surface analysis is utilized to predict the aerodynamic loads on the empennage surfaces in the presence of these concentrated vortices. The analysis was formulated to include all pertinent effects such as suction of the interacting vortices and the shed vorticity behind the empennage surfaces. The analysis employs a time domain solution. The output of the program consists of chordwise and spanwise airload distributions on the empennage surfaces. The airload distributions are harmonically analyzed and formulated for input into the Coupled Rotor/Airframe Vibration Analysis.

Lambda-doublet transfer and propensities in collisions of OH (X2Pi/i/, v = 2) with H2O

The present work is concerned with the changes in electronic parity (e/f states) during rotationally elastic and inelastic collisions. In the OH X2Pi(i) molecule considered in the study, the differences in the e/f state production in the photodissociation of both H2O and HONO1, in the H + O2 reaction, and in the initial-state-unselected H2-OH collisions, have been experimentally examined.

Relations between the photospheric magnetic field and the emission from the outer atmospheres of cool stars. II - The C IV 1550 A doublet

Solar and stellar data are used to determine the relationship between C IV 1548 + 1551 A and magnetic flux densities. C IV SMM-UVSP spectroheliograms of solar quiet regions and plages are analyzed. Typical distribution functions of C IV flux densities over both quiet and active solar regions are presented. The C IV emission is shown to be dependent on magnetic flux density.

Doublet 2800 MgII in close binary systems

The origin of the intercomponent ultraviolet emission from binary radio stars is discussed following an examination of observed emission parameters. Observations are used to consider four arguments which suggest that the Mg emission originates in the space between the components of the binary and not in the chromosphere. Parameters examined include the ratio of Mg emission to that of other binaries, the direct variation of emission with brightness strength, the derivation and nature of the radial velocity, and comparisons of absolute luminosities. Emission (A) and absorption (B) streams or clouds generate the emission, and the observed wavelength distortions are caused by B. An examination of the nature of the emission yields both qualitative and quantitative criteria, including the notion of weak ionization of the hydrogen atoms in B clouds relative to the ionization in A clouds.
