5 1 INTRODUCTION A method for measuring oscillatory derivatives in the 8 ft supersonic wind tunnel at RAE Bedford has been described in Ref?, and the present Report gives the results of tests with this rig on a model of the Bristol type 198 supersonic transport design study Measurements have been made of longitudinal and lateral derivatives, and include tests with a new roll spring unit, Two appendices give some further details of experimental technique arising from these tests, 2 ME!THOD OF TEST For these tests the model was mounted on a spring unit on the end of a sting, and excited at constant amplitude by means of a moving coil vibration generator The general arrangement for yaw and sideslip tests is shown diagrammatically in Fig?, in which the spring unit is replaced by its equivalent pivot and spring The system is treated as having tvfo degrees of freedom, and full details are given in Ref1 A new roll spring unit was used for some of the present tests, and details of this are given in Appendix A This unit was intended to have only one degree of freedom, but in practice it was found to have appreciable flexibility in yaw, so that the system had to be treated as having two degrees of freedom, and measurements were made in the yawing mode at about 12 cps as well as in the rolling mode at 1 cps Excitation of the yawing oscillations occurred only because of the inertia coupling (Izx) between the two modes There was also a certain amount of oscillation in sideslip, but there was no provision for exciting or measuring a third (sideslip) mode, Because of this sideslip motion, no cross derivatives could be measured satisfactorily, and reliable results were obtained only for the direct derivatives 4$ and 4$ At each test condition the static forces and moments were measured on the appropriate spring units (with ordinary wire resistance strain gauges) for & range of incidence and yaw so that the static derivatives could be obtained from the slopes of the curves 3 DE~S'XUFTION OF MODEL The model, shown in Fig2, represented a supersonic transport design study undertaken by Bristol Aircraft Ltd (Type 198) The wing camber was designed by linear theory for M = 22, C % = 2, and a centre of pressure

6 4 shift of 15 8 at CL = 1 Leading dimensions and details of the model are given in Table 1 No engine nacelles were fitted In order to provide sufficient clearance between the sting and the inside of the model, the conical sting shield had to be four inches diameter at the tail, thus causing considerable distortion of the rear body The fin was detachable and the lateral tests were repeated without the spring the fin The model was made of fibre-glass with a steel insert for mounting on unit 4 TEST CONDITIONS Details of the test conditions are given in Table 2, Since there seems to be some doubt about the desirability of fixing transition in tests of this kind, no arrangements were made to fix transition in these tests At Mach numbers of 8 and above, the incidence was limited to a maximum of' 8' on account of the stresses in the spring units produced by the steady aerodynamic loads on the model 5 PRESENTATION OF RESULTS The results are presented in Figs3 to 34, Tables 3 and 4 serving as an index All of the results are referred to a reference axis at 52 Co The ncn-&ension& coefficients are defined under "Notation" below The static derivatives were obtained from the slopes of the curves of Figs35 to 39; static pitching moment, normal force and rolling moment were measured over the same range of incidence as in the dynamic tests, but yawing moment and side force were measured only at zero incidence Certain derivatives could not be measured satisfactorily; these are also listed in the tables, with appropriate comments, but the results are not presented Generally the results are plotted against the normal force coefficient, C s, so that it has not been necessary to apply any corrections to incidence In the case of the static tests, however, the values of the incidence and yaw have been corre,cted for deflections of the sting and spring unit so that the slopes of the curves are directly comparable with the dynamic results The question of the reliability and accuracy of this method of testing is fully discussed in Section 5 of Refl

7 5 6 DISCUSSION \ The results show no unexpected large variations and generally no large irregularities Comments on some features of the results are given belcw Under certain conditions some of the derivatives decrease sharply near or just above zero lift, possibly because the flow is then attached!&@a1 examples of this are seen in the case of ze at low speed (Fig3) at Sp3edS up to M = 14 (Fig36) Except in the tests at M = 2, the static values of m are about 1 more positive than the dynamic values (Fig5) The same effect was observed in tests of a cambered ogee modefl It is still considered doubtful whether this effect is genuine, although the differences are rather too large to be attributed to known experimental errors and no other explanation has been found It is interesting to note that most of the variations in n$ and n$ (Figs16 and 19) with fin on are repeated with fin off, thus leading to smooth curves for the fin contributions and tending to give confidence in the reliability of the measurements The fin contribution to n$ (Fig22) is almost constant at subsonic speeds but decreases with increasing incidence at supersonic speeds The fin contribution to nt (Pig24) is larger at subsonic speeds than at speeds of M = 18 and above, while at M = 14 the lower value is obtained at low incidences and the higher value at high incidences The derivatives 4@ referred to sting axes must be equal to -4$ tan a (See Ref?, Appendix IV) The results, shown in Fig34, are therefore of little aerodynamic interest, but give another check of the reliability of the measurements 7 FURTHERDEVELOPMENTS Two further developments in the technique should remove some of the difficulties referred to in this Report k A new spring unit has now been made, which is designed to have suitable flexibilities in yaw, sideslip, and roll, with provision for exciting and measuring all three motions This should avoid the limitations of the roll spring unit (para2) New measuring equipment, designed for automatic recording, has also been provided, which is expected to improve the accuracy of measuring small phase angles in the presence of noise (see Tables 3 and 4)

8 6 The latest form of the equipment will be used for tests on a model of the Concord 8 CONCLUSIONS Measurements have been made of most of the derivatives with respect to angular motion in pitch, yaw,and roll, and the results show no unexpected large variations The new roll spring unit has been found to have certain limitations and it seems that the best way to obtain a complete set of lateral derivatives will be to use a combined spring unit with facilities for measurements in yaw, sideslip, and roll, Such a unit has now been made

9 :~~~~~~~~~~~~~I;~~~~RO~ SPRING UNIT, I The roll spring~unit'j which-was used for the first time in these tests, is illustrated in F&g&Q- -Each of the four cross s@lngs which locate the ; rolling ~a%is:~has San- e~~~~~~c$iver:leng'th (perpendictiar I% the axis) of 15 inches, a width (paraxlel;-to- thee *axis) of 2iO inches, and -a thickness of 4 inches * The two Long&tLCiinaI~~s%iffeners are IO inches longxwith a section 517 inches by 285 inches, chamfered off to a 9' angle on the inside, as shown in a sketch The whole unit is machined out of one piece of steel The exciting roi3ing moment is applied by twisting the driving rod The linkage between the vibration generator and the rear end of the driving rod gives an effective radius arm of about 27 inches

10 Appendix B, CORRECTIONS FOR VARIATIONS IN MEXXANICAL STIFFNESS Laboratory tests on the spring units have shown that in certain cases the mechanical stiffness of the unit is affected by the application of steady loads Thus in tunnel tests the steady aerodynamic pitching moment and normal force can produce changes in the mechanical stiffness which will cause errors in the aerodynamic derivatives deduced from the difference between wind-on and wind-off values Corrections for these effects have been obtained from laboratory tests and applied to the tunnel results on this model as follows:- Yaw spring unit Roll spring unit Correction to Q: 1 ICm + 5 Cz) Correction to ecp: -214 Cz There are also changes in mechanical cross-stiffness of the pitch spring unit which are apparently due to variations in the sting support system and cannot be correlated with steady aerodynamic loads There are significant differences between the wind-on and wind-off values of hk, which cannot represent an aerodynamic Mz, since this derivative should be negligibly small, The differences are presumably due to changes in the mechanical Mz, and in fact day-to-day variations of the same order of magnitude* occur in the wind-off measurements of Mz and Ze (These two mechanical cross-stiffnesses are the same) The effect of these variations on the measurements of the aerodynamic Z has been eliminated by assuming that the aerodynamic Mz is zero, and writing Aerodynamic Ze = (Ze - Ms) wind-on iilstead of (z,> nind-on 4%) wind-off + ) 1 lb, representing about + 5 in mz and z8 at hl = 14
