13. Numerical Study of Wall Ventilation in a Transonic Wind Tunnel
ABSTRACT: Transonic wind tunnels (TWT) are sophisticated tools for the investigations of flows with Mach numbers of order one. The most characteristic feature of a facility such as this is, for sure, the openings in the walls of the test section. The openings in the walls permit the proper relief effect, and this, on the other hand, makes possible the experi

14. Optimization of Airfoils for Minimum Pitching Moment and Compressibility Drag Coefficients
ABSTRACT: This paper concerns a numerical optimization method for designing airfoils based on adjoint method. The goal of present work is to reduce the compressibility drag or pitching moment of transonic airfoils without compromising on the lift coefficient. A new cost function based on this requirement is defined and the corresponding adjoint equations are

17. Methodology for Structural Integrity Analysis of Gas Turbine Blades
Abstract: One of the major sources of stress arising in turbomachinery blades are the centrifugal loads acting at any section of the airfoil. Accounting for this phenomenon stress evaluation of the blade attachment region in the disc has to be performed in order to avoid blade failure. Turbomachinery blades are generally twisted, and the cross section area v

20. Projeto de um veículo aéreo não tripulado para pulverização aeroagrícola / Unmanned aerial vehicle design for agricultural aerial spraying
The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV s) have a variety of applications, wether monitoring of forest fires, power lines, traffic, crowds, but also can be used for aerial target military applications. Even though it is still somewhat restrict to civil application because of lack of regulation, such vehicles are being developed and studied in the academic sphere.

21. Nonlinear turbulent transonic flow phenomena influence on aeroelastic stability analysis.
The present work is aimed at studying the influence of viscous effects in transonic aeroelastic analyses. To achieve this goal, a two-dimensional and viscous aeroelastic computational solver, for CAE analysis, is developed, which uses unstructured computational meshes and which is able to capture the main aeroelastic phenomena relevant in the transonic regim
