WIND TuNlTm MEAsmNTs OF Tm UNSTEADY FBEssms IN AND BEHIND A BOMB BAY (CANBERRA)

J. E. Rossiter and

A. G. Kurn

!lhe unsteady pressures acting in and behind the bomb bay of a l/20 so,: model of the Canberra aircraft have been measured in the 8 ft x 6 ft transonx tunnel. The unsteady pressures are described by their r.m.s. values and by amplitude and correlation frequency spectra. Time average values of the pressures were also neasured.

The results show that the Canberra bomb bay is of the "shallrm type" in which the airflow enters the bay and attaches to the roof before being deflected cut by the rear bulkhead. Pressure fluctuations are most intenso in the vicinity of the rear bulkhead and on the roof of the bay where the flow attaches. Changing the Mach number from O-3 to O-6 has in general little effect on the unsteady pressures (when expressed non-dimensionally) but xwxeasing incidence up to ten degrees produces some decrease in thex- magnitude.

I INTRODUCTION

As part 4-a prceamme of tests to investigate the effect of an open bmb-bay nn the vibratirn.Pf an aircraft, the unsteady prcssuresmeasured m.the bay of a Canberre are to be compared with measurements made on a wind tunnel."nrdel. This Note re

P 0rt.5 tie results nf the wind tunnel meas+u-ements~

The tests were made on a 1 20 scale model of the Canberra B7 in the 8 ft x 6 ft transonic tunnel during April 1962.

2 TEST DETAILS

2.1 The model

Fig.1 is a general afiangement dramng of th'e model used for the wx.nd +Jlnnel tests. The model 1s complete with fuselage, wings and tailplane but the fin and pilot's cabin falring have been omitted. A smell block fitted in the front of the bay represents an instrument tray which will be carried during the flight-tests.

The model was supported frnm above, by a short stream-lined strut attached to a sting which was held in the tunnel incidence mechanxsm (see Fig.3). This method of support was chosen as being the least likely tc affect the air flowing over the bomb bay, and the lower sde of the fuselz.gc.

The bomb bay has an inverted V-shaped roof, and both the roof and tl!e lower fuselage line are swept up slightly towards the rear (see Flg.1). S'h, doors retract partially into the bay when it 1s open. No attempt has been made on the model to represen-< structural detatis such as mngs and strlngsx The bay has a mean lengtudepth ratlo of approximately 8:l and a mean length; tidth ratio of approximately 5~1.

2.2 Instrumentation

Small capacity type pressure transducers' (I(AE‘ type IT&6-37) were used to measure the pressures actzng at 7 posItIons along the roof of the ‘my, and 10 posItions nn the fuselage surface behInd the bay (see F~g.2). The transducers were calibrated before each test period by applying a known steady pressure to each trsnsducer and observing the outputs from the trans- ducer smpltixers on a d.c. voltmeter. Varlatlons in the 0alLbretinn factors throughout the test were less than "5% During the test, the outputs from the transducer ampllflers were observed on a d.c. voltmeter to give time average pressures, and on a Dawes true r.m.s. meter (me 61%) to give the r.m.s. of the unsteady component of the pressuns. in addltlon the outputs from selected transducers were recorded in pairs on an Ampex Type 306-2 two channel tape recorder for subseql=nt frequency analysis using a Muzhead- Psnetrada WV frequency analyser -rmth a bandwdth ratlo of 15.9. The =cording and analysing system 1s described fully in Bef.2.

2.3 Range of investigation

The model was tested over s, Mach number range from O-3 to 0.6 and, 311 order to facilitate comparison mth the forthcoming flight tests, the modct incidence was adjusted at each speed to sxnulate flight at altitudes of %CQ and 20,000 ft. Model vibration limlted the kinetx pressure at whit!, the tunnel could be operated to 150 p.s.f. The corresponding unit Reynol? number together with model incidences are given m the table below.

Page 6: Wind Tunnel Measurements of the Unsteady Pressures in and

The time average and the r.m.s. of the pressures at each transducer position were measured for 611 the test conditions. For M = O-3, a = 5*6”, amplitude spectra mere measured at al.1 the transducer positions. Correla-tion spectra were obtained for all transducers in the bay referred to transducer G (Fig.2), and for the transducers behind the bay on the starboard side of the fuselage referred to transducers J and N. In addition correlation spectra between transducers at the ssme longitudinal station but on opposite sides of the fuselage wers measured.

For the ether seven test conditions amplitude spectra were measured for transducer p*sitlons F,G,H and N.

In order to establish datum conditions, amplitude spectra were obtained for transducer H at Id = 0.3 and O-6 with the bomb bay filled in.

3 RESULTS

3.1 Fresentatlen of results

Time average pressures have been expressed in terms of the usual pressure coefficient Cp, and the r.m.s. of the unsteady pressures have been

made non-dimensional by dividing them by the tunnel kinetic pressure q.

A preliminary examination of the nature of the unsteady pressures showed that they were random in character. Such random functions can only be described by their average properties and it is convenient to use the nomenclature of spectral analysis.

A non-dimensional frequency parameter n, has been used in the frequency spectra where

n+ I

where f is measured frequency (0.p.s.)

U is tunnel speed (f.p.s.)

and L is the bomb bay length (ft)

Fig.4 gives conversion factors to enable n to be expressed in absolute frequency under full sosle conditions.

The ordinate of the amplitude spectra has been expressed as pe/q<E

where p, is the r.m.s. of the pressure fluctuations within the bandudtn of the analyser used to obtain the spectra

E is the bandwidth ratio of the andyser (= 0*155)

single degree of freedom system, with a natural frequency f. and an

acceptance bandwidth Af, then the r.m.s. of the relevant part of the exclt? tion is given by

indication of the size of the region over which disturbances retain their identity - on the average. In addition, the variation of the correlation coefficient along the direction in which the disturbances are travelling will contain a measure of their average speed. In this connection it 1s significant that for the special case of a pressure field which is entirely periodic in character, the correlation coefficient is equal to the cosine of the phase difference between the pressures at the twq measuring points. Typically, the variation of Rij(n) along the direction of travel of dis-

turbances superficlslly resembles a damped cosine wave. The distances between successive zero crossings may be interpreted loosely as ufd mea wavelength of the disturbances and the rate of decrease in successive peak values as a measure of the rate of decay of the disturbances.

3.2 Datum conditions

The amplitude spectra of the unsteady pressures at transducer position H with the bay filled in are given in Fig.5 for N = 0.3 an?. 0.6. At each speed the spectrum consists mainly of a peak which is at the fan blade frequency (i.e. fan speed in r.p.s. x number of fan blades) together with one or more secondary peaks at harmonics of the fan blade frequency. This type of spectrum has been obtained previously in tests in the 8 ft x 6 ft tunnel and the peaks are thought to be due to the setting up of standing wave patterns within the plenum chamber surrounding the working section. The spectral density for this datum case is small compared with the spctral density when the bay is open except at the frequency of the e peaks ad, for certain transducer positi*n,'at very high frequencibs (n s 5) (compare Fig.5 with Fig.8, x/L = O-27 and l-26, for example). The only correction which has been made to the frequency spectra obtained with the bay open is to remove any peaks which occurred at the fan blade frequency and its first and second overtones.

3.3 Mean pressure distributions

Fig.6 shows the dis'crlbution of the mean pressures along the roof of the bay and on the fuselage behind the bay for N = 0.3 and 0.6. The pressure distrlbutlons at low incidence are typical of a shallow DJpe bay In which the airflow enters the bay and attaches to the roof before being deflected out by the rear bulkhead (see for example Ref.3). The pressure rise associated with the flow attachment occurs at x/L + 0.45.

3.4 Distribution of the r.m.s. of the unsteady pressures *

The distribution of the r.m.s. of the unsteady pressures is shown in Flg.7. The pressure fluctuations are most intense in the viciniQ of the rear bulkhead and on the roof of the bay where the flow attaches. The intensity decreases rapidly with distance behind the bg.

The curves for N = 0.3, a = 5160 and 10*4O show that increaging incidence produces an appreciable reauctian in the magnitude of the fluctuations within the bay, and. suggests that the,hlgher values of the r.m.s. of the pressures measured at M = O-6 are probably mainly due to the lower inciaences tested at this spe&. The effect of the inoidence change on the pressures behind the bay ~WgXgible.

3.5 Amplitude spectra of unsteady pressures J-

Fig.8 shows the amplitude spectra of the un$,teady pressures ier 1.4 = 0.3, a = 5.6”. For all transducer pesitions the spectra are tolerabii smooth and cover a broad band of frequencies, indicating that the pressure fluctuations are random in character. The spectra are similar to those

Page 9: Wind Tunnel Measurements of the Unsteady Pressures in and

measured by Fail and others 4 m a Canberra type bay formed in a cy1indrico.L fuselage. In Fig-y, the spectra for two points near the rear bulkhead are compared with the earlier measurements. The agreement between the two se:r: of results is reasonable bearing in mind the differences in the external shapes of the models and the slightly different positions of the transducers.

Included In Fig.8 are spectra for M = 0.3, a = IO*&' for trio pcsxticns in the bay and for two positions behind the bay. It can be seen that,although as has already been noted,inc.reased incdence produces an appreciable decrease in the magnitude of the unsteady pressures within the bay there 1s little change in the shape of the spectra.

The spectra obtained at different Mach numbers sre compared in Fig.10 for two positions v:ithin the bay and for two positions on the fuselage behind the bay. In looking at these spectra it should be remembered that the inculence of the model was ad.justed at each Mach number 'cc simulate flight at .59X3 and 20,OCC ft. It is therefore difficult to separate the effects of rncidence and Mach number. However since, as has already been noted, incidence has little effect on the unsteady Pre-, wes on the fuselage behind the bay (Fig.8) it follows from Fig.10 that Mao;. number also has little effect on these pressures. Within the bay, increasing incidence reduces the magnitde of The pressures (Fig.8) and hence the changes in the spectra shown in Fig.10 for x/L = O-95 are probably mainly due to the change of incidence. For x/L = 0*84, however, although the changes in magnitude are similar to those for x/L = 0*95* there are also changes in the frequency at which the maximum spectral dens>% occurs and these are probably due to the change in Mach number.

3.6 Correlation spectra of unsteady pressures

Selected correlation spectra for M = 0.3, a = 5.6' are shotm in Fig. il. Within the bay (Fi&Il(a)) the main features cf a spectrum is a trough followed at about ttice the frequency by a peak. The high values of the c-x-relation at the peaks suggests that dzsturbances retain their identity for qultt large distances as they travel along the roof of the bay. I& is therefote possible to calculate the time average speed of propagation u, of these disturbances. For, of it is assumed that tne frequency n' at which a peak occurs, may be associated with a disturbance whose wavelength X', is the seme as the distance between the measuring points, then

Values so calculated are given in the table below:

x/L

0.95 to 0.84 0.49 0.95 to 0.7-l 0.59 0.95 to o-58 0.59 0.95 to O-45 0.56

h (mean value over ‘given x/L range)

The mean value of G/U is O-57. It is not possible from the informat.on available to calculate the speed of the airflnw YE' just outside the bomb bay

but an idea of its magnitude can be estimated from the measured values of C given in Fig.6 by assuming P

C-7 L

u = (1 -cp) .

Page 10: Wind Tunnel Measurements of the Unsteady Pressures in and

This gives a value for Yd U, meaned over the region of interest, of

0.73 so that -4% = O-78. That is, the mean propagation speed of dis-

turbances along the roof of the bay is about three quarters of the mean stream velocity just outside the bay, which is of the same order as the mean speed of disturbances in a turbulect boundary layer measured by Tack and otherd.

Behind the bay, the pressures on the side of the fuselage are well correlated in the region between the transducers at x/L = 1 *I5 and I.37 (Fig.ll(c)) but the pressures in this region are not well correlated titi the pressures just behind the Es,r bulkhead (x/L = 1.05, Fig.ll(b)), suggesting that there is a small region immediately behind the bay which is isolated in behaviour from the main stream. Fig.ll(d) shows that whereas immediately behind the bay (J ana K), in this smsll isolated region, the pressures ere positively correlated in a cross plane, further downstream the correlation is large but negative, suggesting that the wake from the bay is unstable and moves from side to side of the fuselage.

4 CONCLUSIONS

(I) The Canberra bomb bay is of the "shallow type" in which the airflow enters the bay and attaches to the roof before being deflected out by the rear bulkhead.

(2) The pressure fluctuations are most intense in the vicinity of the rear bulkhead and on the roof of the bay where the flow attaches.

(3) Changing Mach number from 0.3 to 0.6 has (in general) little effect on the pressure fluctuations (when expressed non-dimensionally) but increasing incidence up to ten degrees produces some decrease in their magnitude.

(4) A study of the correlation spectra suggasts that disturbances travel slang the reef of the bay at about three-quarters of the local airspeed ext=ernsl to the bomb bay or at about one half of the free stream speed.
