   Extractions: Diesel Engines May Make a Comeback as Planemakers Seek Alternative Fuels At least four firms are developing diesel engines for non-turbine, high-performance light aircraft that will run on Jet A1, thereby freeing operators from dependency upon leaded high-octane avgas that is headed toward extinction early in the 21st century. The new diesels promise one-third better specific fuel consumption than current leaded gas piston engines. Morane Renault Engines' 200-hp, five-liter, four-stroke, four-cylinder MR 200 turbo-diesel made its U.S. debut at EAA AirVenture '98 (the Oshkosh show). It made its first flight on an Aerospatiale Socata TB20 in March. Meanwhile Lycoming, together with partner Detroit Diesel, is developing a turbo-diesel engine. And Continental is pressing ahead with a 4.7-liter, two-stroke, 4-cylinder CSD-283 engine as part of the NASA-GAP (General Aviation Propulsion) program. The Morane Renault MR 200, including accessories, weighs 13 pounds less than a 200-hp, four-cylinder, Lycoming piston engine, according to Luc Pelon, the company's program manager. Turbocharging and the large intercooler enable the engine to develop 70 percent power at 25,000 feet. The engine has a digital electronic control and power is set with a single lever. The MR 200 features an 18:1 compression ratio, plus head-to-head through bolts that allow use of very high boost pressures. Similar to slow turning diesel engines used in trucks, the MR 200 generates its 200 hp at a comparatively slow, constant 2,000 rpm. It uses high boost, instead of high rpm to generate its rated power and make possible a 3,000-hour TBO, according to Pelon. External noise levels should drop five to six dB because of low prop rpm plus the muffling effect of the turbocharger, said Pelon.

   Extractions: aviation timeline World Aviation in 1 Sir George Cayley Sir Geo r ge Ca y le y was the Yorkshire- born aristocrat who first worked out the basic principles of the airplane in the 1790s. Oddly enough, England was satisfied w ith Ca y le y ’s theoretical achievement and so was slower than other European countries in mastering the practical challenges o f fl ight. George Cayley's early helicopter design from "On Aerial Navigation," 1809. In his experiments, Cayley would first test his ideas with small models and then gradually progress to full-scale demonstrations. He also kept meticulous records of his observations. One of his first experiments as a young man was to build a small helicopter model. This toy was rooted deep in European history. The earliest ancestors of the device date to the 14 th century. Cayley was inspired by a version developed in 1784 by the Frenchmen Launoy and Bienvenu. It had two rotors consisting of feathers stuck in corks and was driven by a string from a bow. The design demonstrated an understanding of how a propeller worked. It also addressed Cayley's interest in finding a means of powering an aircraft. He attempted to use an engine fuelled by gunpowder but it was unreliable. His inability to find a means of propulsion caused him to revert temporarily to Leonardo da Vinci's concept of using flapping wings as a means of propulsion. This resulted in his 1843 convertiplane model called the Aerial Carriage. Cayley reverted to ornithoptering propulsion and vertical flight ideas on several occasions in his career.

GRC, Nov 01, 2004 Cleveland, Ohio NASA's Lewis Research Center has awarded two cooperative agreements in support of the Agency's General Aviation Propulsion (GAP) program. Williams International, Walled Lake, MI, was selected for negotiation of a $37 million cooperative agreement to develop a turbine engine. Under this four-year agreement, the company will develop and flight demonstrate break-through, low-cost turbine engine propulsion systems. The turbine engine concepts are for light general aviation aircraft with six seats or less and cruising airspeeds greater than 200 knots. The work will be conducted at their facilities in Walled Lake as well as at Lewis, NASA's Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA, and NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, CA. The major goal of the Williams International agreement is to develop technologies and manufacturing processes for low-cost, environmentally compliant, innovative turbine engine propulsion systems.

    Extractions: The structural properties of both rotating or stationary airfoil rows are predicted first with finite element models. To determine the unsteady aerodynamic loading on the airfoil rows, a definition of the unsteady aerodynamic forcing function in terms of its harmonics is required. The forcing function is then Fourier decomposed into harmonics. The unsteady aerodynamic response of the airfoil row to each forcing function harmonic is then assumed to be comprised of two components: the disturbance being swept past the nonresponding airfoils, termed the gust unsteady aerodynamics; the airfoil vibratory response to this disturbance, the motion-induced unsteady aerodynamics or the aerodynamic damping.

GRC, Nov 01, 2004 CLEVELAND, OH NASA has announced a partnership with the FAA and the U.S. aviation industry for a new program that will address the critical need to improve affordability and performance of U.S. light general aviation aircraft propulsion systems. The General Aviation Propulsion (GAP) program was established to develop technologies and manufacturing processes for revolutionary, low-cost, environmentally- compliant propulsion systems and to flight-demonstrate these propulsion systems on advanced aircraft. The focus is on the light general aviation aircraft which have six seats or less. "New advanced propulsion systems are the key to tomorrow's affordable, user-friendly general aviation aircraft," said Leo Burkardt, manager of the GAP program at the Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH. "According to a NASA Aeronautics Advisory Committee's General Aviation Task Force Report," Burkardt said," replacing today's outdated light aircraft propulsion systems is perhaps the most important factor in helping to revitalize the light aircraft market.
