Abstract

Numerical aeroelastic simulation of a high-aspect-ratio transport type wing model in transonic region is presented. The aeroelastic responses of the wing are extracted by integrating compressible thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the equations of motion of the wing structure, in a time dependent manner. The Yee-Harten implicit TVD scheme and the Wilson's θ method are employed to integrate these equations, respectively. Flutter boundaries were found for Mach number range, 0.7 to 0.85 and the results were compared with experimental flutter boundaries. Futhermore, Limit Cycle Oscillations were found and the characteristics of the flutter and limit cycle oscillations are investigated and discussed.
