9 Control ction: Rudder Yaw 17 Six-DOF Model Ref: Roskam J., irplane Flight Dynamics and utomatic Controls, 1995 ssumptions: Flat earth (spherical and rotational effects are negligible) Rigid body (no relative motion of particles, no spinning rotors) Constant mass and mass distribution (no fuel burning, no fuel slosh, no passenger movement etc.) Uniform mass density Constant gravity Body axis: rotating and moving Inertial axis: non-rotating and non-moving dm ds d 18

10 Six-DOF Model Ref: Roskam J., irplane Flight Dynamics and utomatic Controls, 1995 From Geometry: r = r + r P is center of mass/gravity. Hence: ( p ) r ρ d = r r ρ d = 0 p CG 0 r ρ d = r ρ d = r m p p 1 r p = r ρ d m dm ds d 19 Dynamic Equations Prof. Radhakant Padhi Dept. of erospace Engineering Indian Institute of Science - Bangalore

12 Force Equation (inertial frame) Ref: Roskam J., irplane Flight Dynamics and utomatic Controls, 1995 Moreover S ρ g d = g ρ d = mg m F ds = X + X Hence erodynamic force hrust force dp m = mg + X + X dt pplied in inertial frame dm ds d 23 Force Equation (body frame) Ref: Roskam J., irplane Flight Dynamics and utomatic Controls, 1995 hrust forces are typically applied in body frame erodynamic forces act on wind frame, which is close to body frame (they are same when α=β=0) Body frame is a rotating frame. Hence it is O an inertial frame and the ewton s laws are not applicable directly. 24

13 Force Equation (body frame) Ref: Roskam J., irplane Flight Dynamics and utomatic Controls, 1995 Standard Result : d = + ω dt t Equivalent in inertial frame s seen in rotating frame where ω : ngular velocity of rotating frame wrt. inertial frame. : ny vector Hence the force equation in body frame becomes : p m + ( ω p) = mg + X + X t B Forced applied in rotating (body) frame 25 Force Equation (body frame) Ref: Roskam J., irplane Flight Dynamics and utomatic Controls, 1995 ω = = B X = X Y Z X = X Y Z g = g g g [ P Q R], ( p) [ U W ] [ ], [ ] [ ] ( ω ) X Y Z i j k p = P Q R U W X ( ) ( ) ( ) = i QW R j PW UR + k P UQ Y Z 26

However, it is easier to visualize this equation directly in the body frame since, forces and moments act on the body frame and gravity force does not create any moment about CG. 28
