Abstract

In aircraft certification, fight-test risk-reduction and cost-reduction are issues. CbA (Certification by Analysis), which replaces flight tests with analysis, is being studied globally in order to promote safe and efficient certification. Therefore, we are constructing a CFD-based flight simulator for the purpose of replacing and complementing flight tests.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System

In order to build a CFD-based flight simulator, it is necessary to execute a large number of calculation cases with different Mach numbers, angles of attack, rudder angles, etc., and create an aerodynamic database.

Achievements of the Year

We conducted 169 cases steady CFD simulation by FaSTAR to improve the accuracy of the aerodynamic data base for the simulator. Various combinations of stabilizer angle, flap deflection angle, and flight conbination brings us pieces of insight that help us to improve the prediction accuracy of the piching moment. This FY result contribute to accurate CFD-based flight simulator.
