Here is the text extracted and converted to markdown format: ### Aerodynamic force The force due to air flow. **Thrust** $mg$ $D-T_{ray} \; aerodynamic \\ efficiency = \frac{L}{D}$ (for normal aircrafts it is $\approx 10$) $e.g. \; W = 100 kg \\ L = 100 g \longrightarrow $ for equilibrium flight cond. and if $\frac{L}{D} = 10 \longrightarrow D = 10g$ Thus engine required to power, should give a thrust of at least $10g$. * **Gliders** have a larger $\frac{L}{D}$ ratio, i.e. very high efficiency. ### Atmosphere * Ideal atmosphere $\longrightarrow$ neglecting **winds, clouds and objects** * Most aircrafts fly mid-range of troposphere and stratosphere. i.e. in **Tropopause** $\approx 11 km \longrightarrow 20 km$ and **stratosphere** $\approx 20 km \longrightarrow 47 km$ ### Pressure Variation Diagram with a rectangular block with height h and a small change in height denoted $dh$. The pressure at h + dh is $(P + dP)$ and the pressure at h is $P$. Since $P = \rho R T$ and $\rho = \frac{P}{R T}$, $\longrightarrow -dP = \rho gdh \longrightarrow - \frac{dP}{P} = \frac{g \cdot dh}{R \cdot T}= \frac{g}{R T(W)}$ --- ### Lapse Rate Rate of change Temp w.r.t the height $L = \frac{dT}{dh}$ The temperature varies as the atmosphere (green house gases) traps certain regions/wavelength from the electromagnetic radiations. Diagram with temperature increasing with increasing altitude. * Stratosphere * Tropopause * Troposphere $\longrightarrow$ Temp inc. due to presence of ozone. For each layer: $L_i = \frac{dT}{dh}$ $\frac{dP}{P} = - \frac{g \cdot dh}{R T}$ $\longrightarrow dP = - \frac{g}{R T} \cdot d T$ On integrating $\longrightarrow \int^{P_1}_{P_0} \frac{dP}{P} = -g \cdot \int^{T_1}_{T_0} \frac{dT}{R L_t T}$ $= ln \big (\frac{P}{-P_1} \big) = - \frac{g}{R L_i} ln (\frac{T}{-T_0})$ $\Longrightarrow \frac{P}{P_i} = \big( \frac{T}{T_0} \big) - \frac{g}{R L_i}$ $T(h) = T_0 + a h \; since \; \frac{\partial T}{\partial h} = a = L_i$ * As h $\uparrow T \downarrow$ $a = - ve$ $T < T_0 \Longrightarrow \frac{P_i}{P_0} \propto { \big( \frac{T}{T_0} \big) }^{-\frac{g}{R u}} + ve \Longrightarrow P_i < P_0$ * As h $\uparrow \, T\uparrow$ $a = + ve$ $T > T_0 \Longrightarrow \frac{P_i}{P_0} \propto { \big( \frac{T}{T_0} \big) }^{-\frac{g}{R u}} - ve \Longrightarrow P_i < P_0$ ### Aircraft Performance. * Max velocity $\longrightarrow$ actual ambient * Pressure Altitude $\longrightarrow$ By knowing pressure we associate the altitude to ISA model alt. $\hookrightarrow$ Not true Altitude --- Image containing two diagrams of airplane. We can use Radar,GPS for some flights. But they might not work at heights above 18000 ft. Nose hole ti measure pressure: Pressure is distorted around the body might not measure the actual ISA ht. There are tail wind and head wind. * Tail * Head Actual speed. Ground speed (GS). GS = AS + TWS GS = AS - HWS Air speed & Ground speed w.r.t. surrounding ground air Jetstreams happen during winter affecting the flow of air and wind. Altitude $\approx 9$ km. * In polar regions strong during winter * Jet streams are slower in subtropical regions. Approximately same as atmosphere and ground are relatively at rest. All commercial flights vel > 800 mph When wild speeds are high, air speed and ground speed is diff. Study of effects of relative motion between air and bodies, can be due ti wind / motion if body. In air crafts reference, wind only moves, i.e. relative velocity is afflicted only, and $\rho,T, \phi$ remains consent according to local atm surrounding. But Pressure distribution is there. Bernoulli's eqn. $P + \frac{1}{2} \rho v^2 = const$ For rigid body $F = m \frac{d^2 r}{d t^2}$ But for a fluid con wont tell about the mech of whole fluid. --- ### Continuum Mech Diagrams showing the effect of viscous force. $F = m \frac{d^2 r}{d t^2}$ Streamlines ### Steady/ Un-steady flow steady - same element property / but not w.r.t Time position i.e. not uniform throughout represents steady flow Momentum eqn Properties: $(P, T, S, \overline{v})$ can be written as function of position, whereas mass and volume can't be written for a point. Pressure-stress = F / Area is used since F can't be determined for a pt. $F = m a \longrightarrow \, Euler \\ Navies Stokes$ V6 c Vi because of relative motion there will be friction forces, viscous stress Newton's law of viscosity: viscous stress $(\tau) = \mu \frac{d v}{d y}$ In Euler's equation, viscous effects are neglected, pressure and gravity effect are considered! It assumes the fluid to InviSCID. --- $F_4 = ma_i$ force along a dir depends on acc streamline co-ordinate system along that dir. $(2 \mathbb{Q} flow)$: assuming $Fs = m \hat{a} \hat{s} steady \, flow$ $= PdA - (P + dP)dA$ $= -dP dA \overline{aS} = \int dA ds dv \frac{ds}{dt}$ $\frac{- dP}{\partial s} dA \partial s = \int dA ds \overline{dv} \frac{ds}{dt}$ velocity of fluid particle which will change according to position $\frac{dp}{ds} = \int \frac{d \overline{d}v}{\partial s} \cdot \frac{v}{\rightarrow} S dP = Sv dv$ A stream line defined as a pass a mass-less particle would take when carried in a stream. Local velocity is always tangent to stream line, in which case there can be no mass flow across a stream Line. This means that fluid must be inviscid. $\frac{dP}{ds} + \int \frac{v dv}{ds}=0$ $\Rightarrow \frac(\left[P+\int \frac{V^{2}}{2}\right])=0$ *steady flow assumption is used as V(s) =$\frac{ds}{dt}$ steady $V(c,t)$* constant on a streamline $P+\mathbb{Q} P \cdot dm$ $\partial P \hat{n}$ $-dmm \longrightarrow$ $Pd A^{1}- (P+dp dm) d^{2} A^{1} =\operatorname{Am}\cdot \frac{V^{ 2}}{R}$ $-\Delta PA^{\dagger} dA^{\dagger} = -\int dom dA^{1}. \frac{v^{\partial}}{R}$ $\therefore -\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta M}$.
