A variety of these components were constructed via 3D-printing and analyzed in a wind-tunnel measurement campaign. Both turrets and landing gears were attached to a modular fuselage that supported both isolated components and multiple components at a time. Selected cases were numerically investigated with a Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes approach that showed good accuracy when compared to wind-tunnel data. The drag of main gear struts could be significantly reduced via streamlining their cross-sectional shape and keeping load carrying capabilities similar. The attachment of wheels introduced interference effects that increased strut drag moderately but significantly increased wheel drag compared to isolated cases. Very similar behavior was identified for front landing gears. The drag of an electro-optical and infrared sensor turret was found to be much higher than compared to available data of a clean hemisphere-cylinder combination. This turret drag was merely influenced by geometrical features like sensor surfaces and the rotational mechanism. The new data of this study is used to develop simple drag estimation recommendations for main and front landing gear struts and wheels as well as sensor turrets. These recommendations take geometrical considerations and interference effects into account.}, language = {en} } @article{Havermann2006, author = {Havermann, Marc}, title = {Systematic Shock Tube Experiments on Vortex Ring Generation and Propagation / Havermann, M. ; Kainuma, M. ; Takayama, K.}, series = {Shock waves : proceedings of the 25th International Symposium on Shock Waves-ISSW25, July 17 - 22, 2005, Bangalore, India / ed.: G.

Small sensor turrets are included in such simulations, even though their aerodynamic properties show highly unsteady behavior. Very little is known about the effects of this approach on the simulation outcomes of small turrets. Therefore, the flow around a model turret at a Reynolds number of 47,400 is simulated with a steady-state RANS approach and compared to experimental data. Lift, drag, and surface pressure show good agreement with the experiment. The RANS model predicts the separation location too far downstream and shows a larger recirculation region aft of the body. Both characteristic arch and horseshoe vortex structures are visualized and qualitatively match the ones found by the experiment. The Reynolds number dependence of the drag coefficient follows the trend of a sphere within a distinct range. The outcomes indicate that a steady-state RANS model of a small sensor turret is able to give results that are useful for UAV engineering purposes but might not be suited for detailed insight into flow properties.}, language = {en} } @book{HavermannSeilerGeorgeetal.2006, author = {Havermann, Marc and Seiler, F. and George, A. and Srulijes, J.}, title = {Progress in doppler picture velocimetry (DPV) technique : 12th International Symposium on Flow Visualization, DLR, G{\"o}ttingen, September 10 - 14, 2006 / Institut Franco-Allemand de Recherches de Saint-Louis.
