Abstract

This paper explores the application of vortex lattice computational fluid dynamics method capability to model aircraft flight near to ground, utilizing the ground effect. Computational results were correlated with existing analytic formulations and benchmarked against experimental data from the public domain. A case aerodynamics design study was formed, based on the Russian A-90 Orlyonok Ekranoplan wing. The study provided a verification and a validation step towards advancing ground effect aircraft turnaround conceptual and preliminary design time, using the rapid aerodynamics results generation vortex lattice CFD method.

期刊介绍： WSEAS Transactions on Fluid Mechanics publishes original research papers relating to the studying of fluids. We aim to bring important work to a wide international audience and therefore only publish papers of exceptional scientific value that advance our understanding of this particular area. The research presented must transcend the limits of case studies, while both experimental and theoretical studies are accepted. It is a multi-disciplinary journal and therefore its content mirrors the diverse interests and approaches of scholars involved with multiphase flow, boundary layer flow, material properties, wave modelling and related areas. We also welcome scholarly contributions from officials with government agencies, international agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
