Im Windkanal testen Forscher erstmals ein kammerloses Absaugkonzept für Hybridlaminarisierung


21 November 2019
Für die Aerodynamiker ist ganz klar: Wie ein Flugzeug umströmt wird, ist entscheidend für den Treibstoffverbrauch. Denn: Mehr als die Hälfte des Luftwiderstands eines Flugzeugs ist reibungsbedingt. Es gilt also, die Reibung zu verringern und den Umschlag von einer laminaren – also reibungsarmen – in eine turbulente Strömung während des Flugs möglichst lange hinauszuzögern. Die Laminarforscher des Deutschen Zentrums für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) haben jetzt einen weiteren großen Schritt in diesem Forschungszweig getan und erstmals ein neues System zur hybriden Laminarhaltung getestet.

25th PIV Course - Application of Particle Image Velocimetry - Theory and Practice


March 20 - 24, 2017, Göttingen
The main interest of todays research in fluid mechanics is more and more directed to problems where unsteady and separated flows are predominant. For investigations of flow fields with pronounced spatial structures and/or rapid temporal or spatial changes (transition from laminar to turbulent flow, coherent structures, pitching airfoils in transonic flows with shocks, rotors, test facilities with short run time, etc.) new experimental techniques, such as Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) are required which allow to capture the flow velocity of large flow fields instantaneously.

8th PSP Course - Application of Pressure Sensitive Paint - Theory and Practice


February 18 - 22, 2019, Göttingen
For investigations of pressure distri­butions on wind tunnel model surfaces with high spatial resolution, new experimental techniques such as Pressure Sensitive Paint (PSP) are required. Using this non-intrusive optical pressure measurement technique, spatial structures and/or rapid temporal or spatial changes of aerodynamic phenomena (transition from laminar to turbulent flow, shocks on pitching airfoils in transonic flows, coherent structures etc.) can be in­vestigated. Recently an increasing number of scientists and engineers has started to utilise the PSP technique to investigate pressure distributions in transonic, low speed, hypersonic and cryogenic wind tunnels, as well as in turbo machines. The PSP technique has also evolved from the measurement of steady state pressures to include both periodic and unsteady phenomena to study the instantaneous structure of pressure fields in various areas of fluid mechanics. This course, which is the eighth one on PSP organized by DLR Göttingen, Germany, will concentrate on both measurement techniques and aspects of the theory of PSP relevant to applications. In addition to lectures on the fundamental aspects of Pressure Sensitive Paint Systems, emphasis is placed on the presentation of practical and reliable solutions for problems faced during the implementation of the technique in wind tunnels and other test facilities. During practical sessions in the course, the participants will have the opportunity of carrying out experiments in small groups on PSP/TSP characterisation, coating technique, and the recording and evaluation of PSP/TSP data. Recent developments of the PSP/TSP technique will be discussed and demonstrated. In addition the application of Temperature Sensitive Paint (TSP), which is from the technical point of view very similar to PSP will be part of this course.

Microphone Arrays for Aeroacoustic Measurements


June 4 - 6, 2018, Göttingen
Aim of the MA|AM course is to improve the knowledge for the practical application of microphone array measurements in wind tunnels, including the post-processing and the interpretation of the achieved results. Test engineers can participate to obtain the necessary knowledge to improve the quality of aeroacoustic measurements with microphone arrays and prevent costly errors. Contractors and end-users of array measurement results will learn how to assess the potential of aeroacoustic wind tunnel measurements and how to interpret the achieved results appropriately.

1st European Workshop on MDO for Industrial Applications in Aeronautics – Challenges and Expectations


October 24 - 25, 2017, Hosted by DLR, Braunschweig, Germany
Multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) based on high- and multi-fidelity methods have been intensively investigated during the last decades in academia and government research labs, and were shown to be promising tools for aircraft design. However, the perception exists that only limited transfer of formal MDO techniques into daily design work of aircraft manufacturers has been achieved until today. This European workshop is the first of a planned workshop series organized by DLR, IRT Saint Exupéry and ONERA. The ambition is to establish a European MDO community to enhance collaboration on the subject.
