16.333: Lecture # 7 Approximate Longitudinal Dynamics Models ? A couple more stability derivatives ? Given mode shapes found identify simpler models that capture the main re- sponses Fall 2004 16.333 6–1 More Stability Derivatives ? Recall from 6–2 that the derivative stability derivative terms Z w˙ and M w˙ ended up on the LHS as modi?cations to the normal mass and inertia terms – These are the apparent mass e?ects – some of the surrounding displaced air is “entrained” and moves with the aircraft – Acceleration derivatives quantify this e?ect – Signi?cant for blimps, less so for aircraft. ? Main e?ect: rate of change of the normal velocity w˙ causes a transient in the downwash ? from the wing that creates a change in the angle of attack of the tail some time later – Downwash Lag e?ect ? If aircraft ?ying at U 0 , will take approximately Δt = l t /U 0 to reach the tail. – Instantaneous downwash at the tail ?(t) is due to the wing α at time t ? Δt. ?? ?(t) = ?α α(t ? Δt) – Taylor series expansion α(t ? Δt) ≈ α(t) ? α˙Δt – Note that Δ?(t) = ?Δα t . Change in the tail AOA can be com- puted as d? d? l t Δ?(t) = ? α˙Δt = α˙ = ?Δα t dα ? dα U 0 ? ? ? ? Fall 2004 16.333 6–2 ? For the tail, we have that the lift increment due to the change in downwash is d? l t ΔC L t = C L α t Δα t = C L α t α˙ dαU 0 The change in lift force is then 1 ΔL t = ρ(U 0 2 ) t S t ΔC L t 2 In terms of the Z-force coe?cient ?

Similarly, pitching motion of the aircraft changes the AOA of the tail. Nose pitch up at rate q, increases apparent downwards velocity of tail by ql t , changing the AOA by ql t Δα t = U 0 which changes the lift at the tail (and the moment about the cg). ?

It is often good to develop simpler models of the full set of aircraft dynamics. – Provides insights on the role of the aerodynamic parameters on the frequency and damping of the two modes. – Useful for the control design work as well ? Basic approach is to recognize that the modes have very separate sets of states that participate in the response. – Short Period – primarily θ and w in the same phase. The u and q response is very small. – Phugoid – primarily θ and u, and θ lags by about 90 ? . The w and q response is very small. ? Full equations from before: ? ? ?
