Development and application of farfield drag extraction techniques for complex viscous flows
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 July 2016
Abstract
A new method for deriving the components of drag from the CFD solution of an aircraft flowfield, by analysis of its wake, is presented. This method is applied to viscous flow calculations. It is also applied to configurations containing powerplants. The drag values predicted by this method are compared with the values obtained using more traditional methods, and good agreement is demonstrated.
