Buffeting is defined as the structural response to the | |
aerodynamic excitation produced by separated flows. The | |
aerodynamic excitation produced by bubbles, vortices and | |
transonic flows is discussed. Different buffeting | |
criteria for the wings of fighter and transport aircraft | |
are developed. Methods of predicting the onset and | |
severity of buffeting are reviewed. Some typical examples | |
are discussed, in which improvements in wing buffeting | |
are compared with changes in mean force measurements. The | |
first buffeting measurements on ordinary models in a | |
cryogenic wind tunnel are analysed. The measurements | |
confirm that cryogenic tunnels can separate Reynolds | |
number and aeroelastic effects. The frequency parameter | |
must be correct on the model if the aerodynamic | |
excitation does not have a flat spectrum, as at vortex | |
breakdown on a slender wing. The violet periodic flows at | |
transonic speeds recently observed on thick biconvex | |
aerofoils are briefly reviewed and compared with | |
solutions of the full Navier-Stokes equations. (Author) | |
