As we discussed in class, the three terms in the sum above represent respectively, a
uniform stream, a dipole, and a potential vortex. Here U is the freestream velocity, R is
the radius of the cylinder, is the angle of attack, and K is the circulation associated
with the potential vortex. In all calculations and plots, use a free stream velocity, and air
density which would be typical for a Boeing 757. Choose R to be the width of a typical
wing. For this flow calculate and plot:
A. The drag, lift, pressure distribution, and streamlines for zero circulation and zero angle
of attack.
B. The drag, lift, pressure distribution, and streamlines for zero angle of attack but with 4
evenly spaced circulation values in the range 4UR > K > 0 .
C. The drag, lift, pressure distribution, and streamlines for case B but with an angle of
attack = 10 degrees.
Task 2: Flow over an Ellipse
Use the Jukowski transformation given by:
z = z + a 2 / z to map the cylinder flow given in task 1 above into flow over an ellipse.
A. Repeat the three steps of part A in task 1 for the case a / R = 0.5
B. Repeat the three steps of part B in task 1 for the case a / R = 0.5
C. Repeat the three steps of part C in task 1 for the case a / R = 0.5
D. Repeat the three steps of part B in task 1 for the case a / R = 0.95
Task 3: Flow over a Jukowski Airfoil
The cylinder described in part one above is now offset as shown in Figure 1.
1. Assume a / R = 0.5 , / a = 0.05 , and = 0. Repeat the steps of task 2.
2. Assume a / R = 0.5 , / a = 0.05 , and / a = 0.05 . Repeat the steps of task 2.
Task 4: Prediction of lift on a Boeing 757 using the Jukowsi airfoil model
Using all of your knowledge from tasks 1, 2, and 3, predict the lift generated from one
wing of a Boeing 757 for = 0 and = 10 . Keep in mind that you will need to adjust
the circulation such that you achieve realistic flows, and in addition, you should look at
real wing cross-sections to guide you in developing the correct wing shapes.
