Abstract:Emphasis on tactical aircraft cost reduction has motivated efforts to reduce air induction system cost, which is mainly driven by structural weight. Historically, inlet structural weight has been set by the peak loads associated with engine surge-induced hammershocks. Therefore, an accurate assessment of peak inlet pressure distribution occurring during an engine surge is critical to successful design of next-generation inlet structure for minimum weight and adequate safety margin. Current methods to quantify … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
