Transonic transport study: structures and aerodynamics

Content Provider	NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Copyright Year	1972
Description	The structural and aerodynamic aspects of a general study of advanced transonic transports are presented. Aircraft designed to cruise at Mach numbers of 0.90, 0.98, and 1.15 were comparatively analyzed. The wings of all three aircraft employ supercritical sections, and the two aircraft with the highest cruise Mach numbers also employ fuselage area ruling. Structural/aerodynamic characteristics and interactions are investigated both parametrically and with the aid of an automated configuration optimization program. The effects of replacing conventional aluminum airframe structure by advanced filamentary composite (carbon/epoxy) structure receive particular attention. The methods employed in the structural/aerodynamic analysis are discussed.
