Abstract

A large number of studies have been devoted to the unsteady flow of a viscid incompressible fluid past a lattice of thin profiles and the determination of the resulting aerodynamic forces and moments. For example, in the particular case of the motion of a lattice with stagger γ with zero phase shift α of the oscillations between neighboring profiles, Haskind [1] determined the unsteady lift force and moment. Popescu [2] suggested expressions for the force and moment in the case when α=0 and γ=0, using the method of conformal mapping. Samoilovich [3] obtained equations for the unsteady lift force and moment by the method of the acceleration potential for phase shift α=0 and α=π of the oscillations between neighboring profiles. Musatov [4] used an electronic digital computer to calculate the overall unsteady aerodynamic characteristics of a grid by the vortex method, taking into account the amplitude of the oscillations and the initial circulation for α=mπ (∥m∥≤1). Gorelov [5] determined the coefficients of the over-all unsteady aerodynamic force and moment of a profile in a lattice with the stagger γ and any value of α=mπ. He used a method based on the unsteady flow past an isolated profile with subsequent account for the interference of the profiles in the lattice.
