I ~ I A-3l NATIONAL ADVISORY COMl"1:I'I'TEE FOR AERONAU'I'i:CS ~vn~D - TUrmEL INVESTIGATION OF TEE ~B'FECT OF JET - BOTOR O?ERhTION ON ~ TkaILITY By Wallace F. Davis an~ Sherwood H. Brown SUMl-1ARY The effec ts of jet - notor operation on the stability and control characteristics of two fi sh ter -t ype airplanes as determined by wind -t unnel test s of 1/5 - scale mode ls are pr e- sented . It is s ho wn that the ~ction of the jets is to cause a small los s in stick - fixed stELbili t y which is predic table from known theories.

IN:'RODUCTION A jet - propulsion engine draws L"1.ir into a com pressor and delivers it to E.. chambe r where the Ro.dition ana. combus t ion of fuel results i n a high -t emperature gaseo us m ixture under high pressure . This mixture i s then part ially Expanded t ~ rough a gas ·t ur b ine and is f in c~lly e j ec ted as a high - velocity high - temper&ture jet . In gene r a l, the diffusion of T such a jet is trJ.e result of the absorption of its 8nergy b J the su rroun ding flui d through tur bulent mixi ng. Thc diamete r of the ~et increases SlOily at a ma ximu~ diffusion &ng le of

about 7 {references 1 and 2) 8.no. tL1C increase in cross -

sectional area is 9ccompan ied by n decrease in velocity. If the momentum of the spread in g jet is to remain constant) the decree . se in velocity n:ust be Q.ccomp[',nied by an increase in mass flow. This means ) of course, that part of the fluid in the surrounding streem is drawn into the jet and the stream - lines of the s treF. .:r1 ere def l ected to"'!8.rd the ax is of the high - velocity jet . Theoret ic al treatm en ts of this flow problem are g iven in reference 3.

Prior to the development of these theoretical studiOS , tests of rr:od0ls of two fighter -t ype 8. ir plA.nes ) one with a single jet motor discharging its hot g~scs from the tail a nd the other e. t wi n-en gine e irpl p.ne ','.'ith jets exhausti ng ne ar the

wing roots, were made in the Ames 7- by lO-foot wind tunnels

to determ in e the effects of jGt oporE t tion on stEtbility r. nd control . This report presents the results of these tests with a cold jet and comD~res them with the change in stability calculRted from theory .

JET - PROPULSIO:'"! ST-illL.ATIOJ.\T If pctual jet-propulsion engine-operating conditions were to be used in w ind-tunn el testing, a jet of the same outlet veloci ty p.nd tenperature as generated by the full-scE'..le engine would be necesssry . The difficulties met in producing these cO:lditions in a wind-tunnel moclel hnvc m2c1e actual simulp.tion impractical at the present time, so the following approxir:late method has been developed .

If it i s Rssumed that jet operQtlon cloes not affect the external drag of the engine housing B~d that the static pressure at the jet outlet is eo_ual to atmospheric pressure , the thrust of a jet - propulsion uni t Iill be equE'.l to the rate of change in the momentum of the fluid emerging fro~ the jet or where T thrust force, pounds HA 1.!ass floir! of air , slugs per second V velocity of fluid at jet outlet, feet per second J V velocity of flight, feet per second MF ~ass flow of fuel, slugs ocr second Then, defining the jet thrust coefficient ~cJI as the thrust divided bv the product of the d- v nf'JT.ic pressure of the free strea~ q" (lb/s~ ft) &nd the wing are~ S (sq ft), and since _ ..1 1r:he rc PJ density of f l uid at jet outlet , s l ugs per cubic foot ~J area of je t ou tl et , sque..re fee t I MA + ~JfF \ lr. + l'Jlp ) A PJ rtJ

pS J With the jet - propulsion engines used at the p resent tiDe l IF will not be :nore thF .n 2 percent of EA even under extrec e conditions . Therefore , if HF is l":egleeted , and the thrust will be sirr.ulated if the product of the ratios of the above eouation is the desired conEtant . If p cold jet is l.:.sed in -JlJind-tunne 1 t e stint"} 'c:l.e density rat i o will not be the same as found under 2ctual c o~d itions; however, a g iven

TCJ ,I can be attained by ad j u ot in g the velue of ~J ISo This

adjustment was made in the case of the mod els by reducing the jet - outlet area with a stre a m lin cQ p l ug .

The p rincip a l sources of error in using this ~ethod of jet simul a tion are the incorrect jet temperature and viscosi ty and th e chang-o in the manner of ,iet diffusion by the stream - lined p lug. Both of th e se errors l' ill e ffect th e infl'Jw about the jet , end thus po ssibly the stacility and control chE'.racter - istics of a wind-tunnel ~odel . 30~ ever) it is believed that these errorS \.'.Iill be s ma ll and of s econdary iE lp ortc nce .

APPAHATU SAND !1ETHOD The arran g ement of the 1/5 - scale models of the fighter 6. irpJ.enes in the (- by lO-foot wil1l1. tun l 1el is shown in figures 1 and 2 and the model dimensions are ~ iven in figures 3 and 4 .

The jet was simulated by compressed E'.ir supplied to the model by the piping arrangement sho~n in figures 1 and 2 . Thi6 air passed through 8. mercury seal that removecl any restraint from the balance system and entered the floating frame alon g the center line of rotation in yaw perpendicular to the dra g and cros s- force-wind axes and along the axis of the links of the front-lift sc a les . The model Ditched about a fixed vertical p ipe, and the rotation of the jet outlet c ~ bout the pi v ot waS taken by flexible tub i ng. In order to reduce interference and tare forces, the length of the pipe t h at projected i nto the wind-tunnel air stream was surrounded by a fairing that was free of the wind'-tunnel balance syste r,l . The jet - outlet velocity was calculated fram measure me nts obtained from a thermocouple and calibrated orifices L1 the pipe leading to the jet outlet .

The forces due to jet operation were measured through the av a ilable jet - vel o city range (0 to 10 0 0 ft/sec) in a tunnel - off calibration . Since only the effects of the change in flow about the model were deSired, t he p itching mo~ent and the force components resulting from the thrust of the jet have been subtracted from the test re s ults . All the data have been corrected for wind-tunnel-wall effects and tares .

The method of conducting th e tests consisted of setting the outlet ve locity of the jet at the h i g hest attainable value and varyinf the outlet - velocity ratio VJ/V bY ' 0hanging the dynamic pressure in the wind tunnel . This procedure caused a change in Reyn o lds number (from 700,000 to 1)700, O OO } based upon the mean aerodynamic chord of the m odels) that aff e cted the aerodynamic characterist i cs of the models to some extent , especially when the flaps were deflectecL In order to elimi - nate this variable } jet - off dateS. 1fIie r e obt a .ined at the s a me dynamic pressures as were the jet-on data. Comparison of the results showed an increment i n pitching moment and control hinge moment due to jet operation . In order to illustrate the effect of outlet - velocity ratio, it has been assumed that Reynolds number has a negligible effect on these inc . rements , and they have been added to the basic mo n ent and h i ng a- moment curves obtained at the hi g her Reynolds number.

The natur~ of the flow in the re g ion of a hi g h-velicity jet we .s investi g cS . ted by visual and (,ua litative obs(;rvations .

The apparatus for the form e r method consisted of a 5 -inch by

5-inch plexi g lass flow ch a nnel, a t 1 o-dimensional jet } and a smoke generator. The jet was supplied by compressed air from a source of vari2 . ble pressure anc1.. issued from a 1/16-inch slot in a plenum chamber that extended across t.he flow channel.

S moke was produced by blowing an oil mixture through a heated

coil and was introduced into the low-velocity air stream (6

to 12 ft/sec) above the jet outlet. High-speed photo g r~phs were taken of the smoke streamers through e.n outlet-velocity ratio range of 0 to S.

The magnitude and the direction of the chan ge in flow about the jet outlet of the sin g le-en g ine e.irple.ne modei were measured with a directional pitot -t ube. The accuracy of this instrument in measurin g angles of pitch and yaw is within about ±O.25°, and the dyn[ 1. mic pressure measurements ' are within about ±l percent .

The chan ge in pressure distribution on the horizontal tail surface of the single-engine fi gh ter model was ~ easured by static p ressure orific e s at 25 pe rcent and 50 percent of the elevator se m ispan on 2n airfoil located 6 inches (model scale) above the center line of the jet outlet.

RESU:"TS AND DI S CUSSION Flow Pe.ttern Since the hi g h-velocity jets of both 8.irplanes could influence the flo"\.l. ' in the vicinity of the tail and thereby change the stability, tests we r e made in a small flow channel to study the flow around the jet 1IJi th smoke streamers . Figure 5 shows photographs of t h ese smoke streamers . These studies indic a te that the streamlines curve toward the jet as the outlet-velocity ratio is incre £1. secl nnd that the greatest change in stream direction is near the jet outlet . l1easurements , with a directional pitot tube, of the magnitude of the flov.l-angle .. . ch?:.nges about the jet of the sin g le-engine airple .ne model are not of sufficient ~ccuracy to determine absolute values, since the ' variation i s of the same. ma g nitude as the accuracy of the

instrument. However, the data of fi g ure 6 do show that the

change in stre aD d irection ip the region of the horizontal surface is sma ll (less than 1°). No measurable chan ge in the vel06ity of th e str e am at the tail was noticed.

The effects of jet operation on the elevator hinge moments of the single-engine airplane r es ult in an increase in stick - free stability because of the increase in Ch ' u

Oalculated stick - free neutral - p aint shifts of 30 percent

for this condition are not of Si g nificance , however , since the force va ri a tion with speed is very slight l y increased . For the twin - engine airplane the effect of jet op eration on the hinge-moment charact e ri a tics is ne glig ible, insofar as changes in stick - free stability are concerned .

Dir e ctional S tability Tests of the directional stability ith jets operating show negligible changes in stability a nd trim .
