Abstract
The Flight Research Laboratory at Texas A&M University has proposed conducting both natural laminar flow and passive laminar flow control flight test experiments through NASA’s Environmentally Responsible Aviation program in partnership with the Dryden Flight Research Center and the Langley Research Center. The flight test program will further explore discrete roughness element technology and demonstrate its effectiveness at extending laminar flow beyond the natural transition location. Texas A&M has completed a wing glove design, designated TAMU-06-05, that will be installed on a Gulfstream III testbed aircraft. Detailed analysis on the wing glove design effectiveness is given, focusing on flowfield behavior and boundary-layer stability characteristics near the glove using fullaircraft CFD calculations.
