Hypersonic Experimental Aerothermoelastic Test (HEAT)
SBC: GLOBAL AEROSPACE CORPORATION Topic: AF16AT24The U.S. Air Force is interested in developing hypersonic vehicles including reusable transport aircraft, cruise missiles, and unmanned systems. Hypersonic flight regimes result in multifaceted and very difficult design challenges that can be encapsulated into an aerothermoelastic problem, which is a complex interaction of structural, thermal, and aerodynamic mechanisms. When a flexible structural ...
