Component Testing Wind Tunnel Testing with Delta Wing Model

Component Testing Deformation Measurement in Wind Tunnel

· Delta wing aircraft model

·Measurements at a speed of Mach 0.8 for the analysis of the wing deformation with different angles of attack towards the air flowing direction

· The measurement is carried out in a wind tunnel, thus the optical measuring system is positioned in front of a windows recording images through the glass window

· Point-wise evaluation of the wing tip deflection

· Point group (component) definition over markers attached to hull and both wings 3D coordinates are calculated from the attached measurement markers

· Coordinate system alignment · X-direction: Direction of air flow · Y-direction: Left to right wing · Z-direction: Hull in viewing direction

· To calculate only the wing tip deflection relatively to the hull a rigid body motion compensation is calculated using the 3D coordinates derived from the markers positioned on the hull

· Deflection of the wing tips relatively to the hull

Component Testing Aerodynamic Testing of Sample Return Capsule in Wind Tunnel

Component Testing Aerodynamics of Sample Return Capsule

· Devices to return rock or dust samples from space are so called sample return capsules

· Return capsules are designed to protect a sample container, which is stored inside the capsule, from the extreme heat produced during the re-entry into the atmosphere

· The return velocity of approximately 45000 km/h (13 km/s) must be drastically reduced before the capsule enters lower layers of the atmosphere to prevent overheating

· A blunt geometry of the capsule is thus mandatory to produce enough resistance for velocity reduction in higher atmosphere layers

· Blunt geometries are tending to be aerodynamically instable and are starting to swing, especially when decelerated to the speed of sound and below

· The use of parachutes was not considered due to the complexity and costs of the capsule

· To protect the sample container the capsule must not impact the ground with the top face and must stay within a specific angle from the trim position

· To evaluate the aerodynamic behavior different capsules were tested in the vertical wind tunnel at the DLR in Köln

· Aerodynamic behavior of capsule in vertical wind tunnel at free fall conditions before impact

· The possible rigid body motion of the used stereo camera sensor inside the wind tunnel is compensated using 3D measurement points from the nozzle (green points)

· The 3D coordinate system alignment is done with a coordinate alignment to the CAD data set of the nozzle

· Y-axis in flow direction

· For visualization purposes the CAD data set from the capsule is additionally imported into the measuring project

· Capsule motion in 3D space

· 6 degree of freedom analysis

· Trajectory from capsule center point in the first 5 seconds of the test

· Displacement Y over displacement X

· Comparison to accelerometer measurements

· Very good correlation of the optical measurement results to the accelerometer measurements

· Comparison to accelerometer measurements

· Very good correlation of the optical measurement results to the accelerometer measurements

· Point N136 shows a larger deviation which occurred due to a not perfectly mounted accelerometer

· There is no need to calibrate each individual measurement point for each direction

· No influence on the test object from the measurement markers

· Useful extension to existing measuring setups

· Time and money saving for structural testing
