The usefulness of such a perforated wall, already known, is reduction of the blockage effect as well as the shock elimination. Two types of perforated walls have been used in this investigation. The first wall had a porosity of about 22% and the holes were drilled perpendicular to the surface. However, the second wall had a variable porosity, 0 to 6%, and the holes were drilled at an angle of 60 degrees with respect to the normal vector of the plate. The flow in the test section of the wind tunnel was surveyed extensively at various Mach numbers ranging from 0.6 up to 1.2. Effect of porosity has been studied by comparing results related to the present perforated with the previous closed wall data for various conditions as. Te amount of suction could be adjusted through the side walls. Flow quality along the nozzle and test section has been studied by a long tube installed in the center of the wind tunnel test section.}, keywords = {Transonic wind tunnel/ Flow quality/ Porous walls/ Suction/ Inclined holes}, url = {https://jast.ias.ir/article_51576.html}, eprint = {https://jast.ias.ir/article_51576_e46e6641d2278f3f4acfc239d7b1364b.pdf} } @article { author = {Sharbafi, M.A. and Mohammadinejad, A.

Despite the wide application of gain scheduling controllers, there is a notable lack of analysis on the stability of these controllers. The most common application of these kinds of controllers is in the field of flight control and autopilots. The main goal of this paper is to apply a methodology to prove stability of a gain scheduled controller used in directing Skid-to-Turn missiles. One of the most widespread applications of gain scheduling controller is the main problem of this paper. To design the controller we use pole placement in state feedback controllers and a kind of innovative interpolation to reduce jumping in gains related to changing the flight conditions. Finally we utilize root locus and Kharitonov’s Theorem to prove stability of the linearized plant.

Experiments were performed for various configurations. Based on obtained results, the flow field around the cylinder was affected significantly by EHD actuation. The flow visualization confirmed the formation of separation bubble because of EHD actuation and affected pressure distribution dramatically.
