Aircraft Manoeuvres Simulation Steady and Unsteady Aerodynamic 2003-01-3034
The current work present a simple model to integrate non-linear aerodynamic in conceptual design phase, before wind tunnel testing. A presentation of a simple pitch up maneuver based on three different aerodynamic models is simulated. The simulation indicates different behaviors depending on the aerodynamic model, and shows the importance of including unsteady aerodynamic.
