2 Introduction Despite theoretical and experimental research extending over more than 5 years, we still do not have a good understanding of transonic flutter Transonic flutter prediction remains among the most challenging problems in aeroelasticity, both from a theoretical and a computational standpoint Problem is also of considerable practical importance, because - Large transport aircraft cruise at transonic Mach numbers - Supersonic fighters must be capable of sustained operation near Mach 1, where the flutter margin often is at a minimum O. Bendiksen UCLA
3 Transonic Flutter Nonlinear Characteristics For wings operating inside the transonic region M crit < M < 1, strong oscillating shocks appear on upper and/or lower wing surfaces during flutter Transonic flutter with shocks is strongly nonlinear - Wing thickness and angle of attack affect the flutter boundary - Airfoil shape becomes of importance (supercritical vs. conventional) - A mysterious transonic dip appears in the flutter boundary - Nonlinear aeroelastic mode interactions may occur Flutter Speed Index Linear Theory 3 U F bω α µ Flutter Boundary 2 1Transonic Dip Mach No. M

5 Objectives of Lecture Attempt a theoretical explanation of the key characteristics of transonic flutter and the transonic dip Explain the mechanism responsible for the observed sensitivity to wing thickness and angle of attack Provide an overview of the main theoretical and computational challenges, illustrated through examples
6 Research Challenges Motivating Questions Theoretical: Understanding Transonic Flutter - Is there a rational explanation for the location and shape of the transonic dip? - Why is the dip markedly different from wing to wing? - Can all transonic flutter instabilities be predicted by formulating and solving a linearized aeroelastic eigenvalue problem? - How do we distinguish between flutter and aeroelastic (forced) response? Computational: Predicting Transonic Flutter - What level of modeling is necessary? - Why do different codes based on similar CFD yield different predictions? - Why are LCO amplitudes so difficult to predict? - When do we need to use nonlinear structural models?
7 Observations Linear methods do a reasonable job of capturing the correct flutter behavior of wings in subsonic and supersonic flows, outside the transonic region The theoretical basis for this success is the Hopf bifurcation model for classical flutter, based on a valid linearization of the aeroelastic equations: x = Fxλ (, ) x = A( λ)x+ f( x, λ) The validity of the Hopf linearization is crucial here: The existence and uniform validity of the Jacobian matrix form the basis for the theory A( λ) - Regular perturbation problems generally satisfy linearization assumptions - Singular perturbation problems do not permit a uniformly valid linearization - Strongly nonlinear problems often cause extra grief
8 Examples of Singular Problems (Fluid Dynamics) Flows at low Reynolds numbers (cumulative/secular type singularity) - Stokes linearized solution is not uniformly valid (far field singularity) - Stokes Paradox was identified and corrected by Oseen Flows at high Reynolds numbers (layer type singularity) - Limit of zero viscosity yields Euler equations (different boundary conditions) - Small viscosity requires a boundary layer near body to satisfy no slip b.c. Supersonic flow wave structure (cumulative type singularity) - Linarized Ackeret solution is correct near body, but fails in the far field - In linear solution, weak shocks never coalesce (straight characteristics) - In actual flow, weak shocks always coalesce (cumulative nonuniformity) Flows at transonic Mach numbers (cumulative type singularity) - Linearized solution is not uniformly valid, even near the body - Nonuniformities occur both in space and time - Nonuniformities affect validity of Hopf linearization in flutter calculations
9 Theoretical Issues Linearized Flutter Analysis Nonlinear Aeroelastic Models: x = Fxλ (, ) x = ℵ( x t, λ) x t ( s) = x( t+ s), < s Linearization hypothesis (Hopf bifurcation) x = A( λ)x+ f( x, λ) For hyperbolic equilibrium points, stability near x = is determined by the eigenvalues of A (Hartman-Grobman) Recent results suggest that the Hopf linearization breaks down in the strongly nonlinear transonic region, in and near the transonic dip
10 The Hopf Bifurcation Classical Viewpoint Comes in two flavors -Supercritical (soft flutter) -Subcritical (hard flutter) Implies that small limit cycles do exist near linear flutter boundary, but assumes that -linearization is possible -no nonuniformities occur on the time scale A A 1 Linear flutter boundary c b a A A 1 A 1cr e d c b a U F U 1 U U * U 1 U F a) Supercritical b) Subcritical U
11 Linearization Hypothesis A Closer Look At Mach numbers outside the transonic region, the unsteady aerodynamic problem can be linearized and the velocity potential expanded in a regular asymptotic series: Φ = U { x + ε 1 ( δ)ϕ 1 ( xyzt,,, ) + ε 2 ( δ)ϕ 2 ( xyzt,,, ) + } where δ is a thickness parameter of the wing In the transonic region this regular expansion procedure fails, because the magnitudes of certain neglected terms have grown to order one To fix the problem one can use strained coordinates and a nonlinear perturbation expansion of the form ỹ = λδ ( )y; z = λδ ( )z; t = τδ ( )t Φ = U { x + εδ ( )ϕ 1 ( xỹz,,, t, χ) + } The distinguished limit results in the following scaling relationships: ε = ν = δ 2/ 3 ; λ = δ 1/ 3
12 Transonic Aerodynamics Limit Process Expansion The most general (small-disturbance) equation for the leading term ϕ ϕ 1 is obtained by retaining certain higher-order terms: χ ϕ x γ τ γ ϕ U t 2 ϕ x ϕ ỹ 2 2 ϕ ϕ τ ϕ = z 2 U x t U2 t 2 where χ and τ are transonic similarity parameters χ 1 M 2 = ; τ [( γ + 1)M 2 δ] 2 3 = δ [( γ + 1)M 2 ] 1 3 Note: The first-order equation is nonlinear, even in the limit δ, α, w No linearization is possible without introducing nonuniformities and destroying some of the essential physics; e.g. proper modeling of upstream wave propagation, parametric excitation, etc. Transonic flutter problem is a singular perturbation problem of the cumulative type (using classification terminology of Cole, Hayes, and Lagerstrom)
13 Hopf Linearization Breakdown Strongly Nonlinear Transonic Region Linearization is based on assumption that we can write where εδ ( ) as δ and δ is a measure of wing amplitude(s) But this assumption contradicts the known facts about transonic aerodynamics If we attempt a perturbation solution x = A( λ)x + εδ ( )g( x, λ) x() t = x () t + ε 1 x 1 () t + then x () t cannot be expected to satisfy the linearized equation x = A( λ)x because the aerodynamic forces are governed by nonlinear equations, even in the limit of small disturbances ( δ ) The Hopf linearization breaks down because the transonic aerodynamics problem cannot be linearized without introducing nonuniformities on the time scale
14 Crime and Punishment Classical linear flow theory breaks down in the transonic region, near Mach 1, resulting in a singularity ( 1 1 M 2 ) at Mach 1 The breakdown is of a mathematical rather than a physical nature (magnitudes of certain terms have been estimated incorrectly) Blowup at Mach 1 is related to the use of a linear governing equation, which only permits upstream disturbances to travel at a constant speed (linear acoustic speed of sound) Linearized solution is not uniformly valid in space and time To remove the infinities and nonuniformities we must allow the local speed of sound to vary as a nonlinear function of local disturbances, and this requires a nonlinear field equation for the fluid
15 Limitations of the Hopfian Viewpoint Recent computational results suggest that the Hopf bifurcation has its limitations as a theoretical model for explaining all types of transonic flutter Nonlinear mode interactions and temporal nonuniformities can give rise to nonclassical or Non-Hopfian flutter instabilities, such as -Delayed flutter -Dirty (almost periodic?) flutter -Period-tripling flutter

28 Computational Challenges Despite all the CFD research over the past 3 years, we still do not have a good understanding of the essential requirements for a good nonlinear flutter code The chief challenges are associated with the problem of coupling CFD codes to FE structural codes: 1) Fluid-structure coupling 2) Time synchronization 3) Code validation Time synchronization is most important, because a loosely coupled aeroelastic code using classical modal coupling can be made to converge to an incorrect aeroelastic solution as the mesh is refined and the time-step is reduced
29 Fluid-Structure Coupling Correct implementation of fluid-structure boundary conditions is of fundamental importance in aeroelastic stability calculations Both spatial compatibility and time synchronization requirements must be met, to assure that the time-marching simulations exhibit the physically correct stability behavior and LCO amplitudes Inconsistent or inaccurate implementations can result in a set of discretized eqs. that are not dynamically equivalent to the exact aeroelastic model: -May be missing some orbits (LCO/flutter) or fixed points (divergence) -May contain extraneous flutter orbits or divergences
30 Current Practice Most Codes In classical approach to time-marching flutter calculations, the equations for the fluid and structure are discretized and time-marched separately Most aeroelastic codes are implemented in this manner, using separate software modules for the fluid and structural domains - Codes are then coupled by imposing the kinematic boundary conditions - In loosely coupled schemes, strict synchronization is relaxed and the coupling is accomplished in an approximate manner This approach is simpler to implement, but is known to lead to local spurious violations of the conservation laws at the fluid-structure boundary
31 Modal vs. Direct Approach For strongly nonlinear problems such as transonic flutter, the coupling problem becomes progressively more difficult if a modal approach is used - Higher-order modes tend to be highly oscillatory, and transonic CFD codes are sensitive to rapid changes in surface slopes and curvatures - What modal amplitudes should be used in calculating the aero forces? - Superposition principle breaks down, and convergence becomes an issue These problems do not arise in the direct method of fluid-structure coupling Mode 1 (bending) Mode 2 (torsion) Mode 63 (ideal structure) Mode 63 (real structure) 9.486Hz Hz 2,444.6 Hz 2,45.7 Hz Oscillatory nature of higher-order natural modes of a low-aspect-ratio wing, and the sensitivity of higher mode shapes to small structural imperfections within normal manufacturing tolerances -.3
32 Fluid-Structure Coupling Basic Questions What is required to obtain reliable codes that exhibit the correct aeroelastic stability behaviors for a diverse class of problems? How can (should) coupling schemes be validated? How should fluid-structure coupling schemes be formulated and implemented to obtain - High accuracy - Required consistency - High scalability

34 Asymptotic Compatibility Using Different Mesh Densities A common approach is to use a much finer mesh in the fluid domain than the corresponding structural mesh at the boundary In this case compatibility errors can be shown to be of second order on the fluid mesh, provided that all fluid nodes are properly coupled to structure (see figure) Fluid-structure boundary defined by structural FE solution Structural boundary nth structural node n+1 Approximate boundary defined by fluid element n n+1 Floating fluid node On structural mesh, errors are Ol ( 2 m 2 ). As m these errors can be made arbitrarily small (compatibility in an asymptotic sense) Convergence may still become an issue, because of Morawetz s Theorem

37 Code Verification and Validation A Significant Challenge in Transonic Aeroelasticity Verification: Solving the equations right Validation: Solving the right equations Separation of the verification and validation steps may be difficult in a real-world setting -What do we mean by solving the equations right? (Need to define right ) -Numerical accuracy is always finite and bugs may be present -Aeroelastic solution still depends on the numerical scheme used and how the fluid-structure coupling is implemented If a strict interpretation of solving the equations right is adopted, then the widely used loosely coupled codes can never be verified, far less validated For nonlinear transonic problems convergence becomes an issue, because stability and consistency of the numerical scheme supply only necessary (but not sufficient) conditions for convergence (Lax equivalence theorem does not apply)

54 Conclusions Theoretical 1. Transonic flutter should not be considered classical bending-torsion flutter, because flutter near the transonic dip is often triggered by nonlinear interactions between modes (not coalescence flutter) 2. Near the transonic dip, no meaningful uniformly valid linearization of the aeroelastic problem is possible 3. The transonic dip is primarily associated with the occurrence of highly nonlinear lift and moment curve slopes (almost singular behavior). The part-chord shocks on the wing surface play a fundamental role 4. Certain nonlinear transonic flutter instabilities near the transonic dip cannot be described using the classical Hopf theory 5. The breakdown occurs because the unsteady aerodynamic forces cannot be linearized without introducing nonuniformities in time or space, even in the limit of infinitesimal amplitudes (singular problem)
55 Conclusions Computational 6. The fluid-structure coupling problem remains of central importance in the development of accurate and reliable flutter codes 7. Both spatial compatibility and time synchronization requirements must be met, to assure that the time-marching simulations exhibit the correct aeroelastic stability behavior 8. Codes capable of predicting correct transonic LCO amplitudes must satisfy strict energy balance requirements at the fluid-structure boundary 9. In the strongly nonlinear transonic region near the dip, time-invariance is lost and it may be necessary to calculate several dozen flutter cycles before the correct stability behavior can be assessed 1.The verification and validation steps of transonic aeroelastic codes present several practical problems that have not been adequately addressed in the research literature
