This modern text presents aerodynamic design of aircraft with realistic applications, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software and guidance on its use. Tutorials, exercises, and mini-projects provided involve design of real aircraft, ranging from straight to swept to slender wings, from low speed to supersonic. Supported by online resources and supplements, this toolkit covers topics such as shape optimization to minimize drag and collaborative designing. Prepares seniors and first-year graduate students for design and analysis tasks in aerospace companies. In addition, it is a valuable resource for practicing engineers, aircraft designers, and entrepreneurial consultants.
Our long-term experience of teaching aerodynamic design tasks with computational software has proven this to be an effective teaching approach for a semester-long course. It has met with student approval, improving our approach with each year’s constructive feedback. The maturing of computational aerodynamic tools and computer hardware over the years has driven this teaching approach. Today students can run meaningful CFD on their laptops and apply it to aerodynamic design.
The examples we chose span a large part of the design space for conventional aircraft with straight or slender wings at low or high speeds. The intention is to whet students’ curiosity and incite them to explore on their own and learn through active computation. With the software at hand, students can explore the design space around these points and understand quantitatively the mapping from flight shape to performance. Students can try out their own ideas and see the results with reasonable response times, thereby learning through their own actions instead of just reading about what someone else has done.
