Quantification of Non-linear Aerodynamic Effects on the Limiting Gust Load Cases

Kurzfassung

Different types of transonic non-linear effects during gust encounter can influence the dynamic loads acting on the wing. In this talk, time domain computational fluid dynamics will be used to quantify the impact of these non-linear effects on the limiting gust load cases and classify different regions inside the flight envelope. The results of the non-linear simulation will be also compared to a linear reference.
