First of all,let me introduce my self I am Fizza Alina and the instistution where i am currently studying is PAF KIET  university. This is my first blog and its all about aerodynamics. we made some projects i.e Ornithopter, Rubber band glider, paper craft models. 


CONCEPT OF AERODYNAMICS:
 Aerodynamics is the study of airflow and its principles,aerodynamic concepts are also reflected in the simplest  flying objects and in the natural model for all studies of flight,like a bird's wings.



ORNITHOPTER:

An ornithopter is an aircraft that flies by flapping its wings. Designers seek to imitate the flapping-wing flight of birds. The first ornithopters capable of flight were constructed in France. Jobert in 1871 used a rubber band to power a small model bird.
So here is my first project of this course.






RUBBER BAND GLIDER:

Rubber-powered models are powered by the stored energy of a twisted elastic material. These range from the simple rubber-band powered toys available in many toy stores.The smallest rubber powered model aircraft was built in 1931 by a Philadelphia high school student, called the Flying Flea and was one and a quarter inches long and could remain airborne for approximately one minute..
so this is my second assignment its quite tricky but interesting as well.

PAPER CRAFT MODEl:
This is also given us as an assignment we all are made different models of commercial and military 3D aircraft.. Here is the paper model of Boeing 737 which is my first paper craft model this paper craft is not completed yet but i upload some pics of my craft.

ARISH DEEP CONNECTION WITH AVIONICS AS BECOMING ENGINEER AT PAFKIET

  1.   MY INTRODUCTION

        My name is Arish Khan and as doing Engineering currently BE AVIONICS at PAFKIET and this is my first blog well this blog is all information and material about avionics and aerodynamic of aircraft and I have learned until now. Every engineer have desire and infatuation in his or her field related to his or her same here I have also tantrum about fighter jet aircrafts and as well as commercial aircraft also.

JET FIGHTER

 COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT

2. MY FAVORITE AIRCRAFT 

My favorite aircraft is Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird". I like it very much because

The Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird" is a long range,  Mach3+ strategic a that was operated by the united state air force USA.

 

Dryden's SR-71B Blackbird, NASA 831, slices across the snow-covered southern Sierra Nevada Mountains of California after being refueled by an Air Force tanker during a 1994 flight. SR-71B was the trainer version of the SR-71. The dual cockpit to allow the instructor to fly. 

Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird"

Designer KELLY JOHNSON
First flight 22 December 1964
Introduction 1966

INTRODUCTION TO AERODYNAMICS

Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics is the study of forces and the resulting motion of objects through the air.  
Studying the motion of air around an object allows us to measure the forces of lift, which allows an aircraft to overcome gravity, and drag, which is the resistance an aircraft “feels” as it moves through the air. Everything moving through the air (including airplanes, rockets, and birds) is affected by aerodynamics.

This indicator shows which forces of flight are covered on this page.

 

Shock Waves

What is a Shock Wave?

When an airplane travels less than the speed of sound, the air ahead of it actually begins to flow out of the way before the plane reaches it. The pressure waves created by the airplane passing through the air end up being smooth and gradual.

Vortex Drag

What are Those Whirls off the Wing Tips?

The spirals of air that trail off the tips of an airplane’s wings also contribute to drag. These wing tip vortices steal energy from the motion of the airplane, creating vortex drag.

Air in Motion

Flight Begins with Air in Motion

As an airplane moves through the air, its wings cause changes in the speed and pressure of the air moving past them. These changes result in the upward force called lift. To understand lift, you first have to understand how air (a gas) behaves under certain conditions.

Bernoulli Principle

Let's start with the Bernoulli principle. The Bernoulli principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in the pressure exerted by the fluid.

Pressure Drag

Why is Pressure Such a Drag?

Air flowing past an object pushes harder against the front than the back. This difference creates a backward force called pressure drag.

Does Drag Increase with Speed?

As an aircraft's speed increases, drag on the aircraft generally increases much faster. Doubling the speed makes the airplane encounter twice as much air moving twice as fast, causing drag to quadruple. Drag, therefore, sets practical limits on the speed of an aircraft.

How do you Reduce Pressure Drag?

The air pressure against the leading side of an object is higher than the pressure in the randomly churning eddies of the wake on the other side of it. Streamlining reduces this pressure difference.

What is Friction Drag?

Friction is the resistance that happens when two things rub together—like air against an airplane. Friction is partly what causes drag.

How Does Friction Work?

When an object moves through air, the air closest to the object’s surface is dragged along with it, pulling or rubbing at the air that it passes. This rubbing exerts a force on the object opposite to the direction of motion—friction drag.
The thin layer of air closest to the surface of a moving object is called the boundary layer. This is where friction drag occurs.

I GOT PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATE IN MY AVIONICS COMPETITION





 A.   balsa rubber band glider

fuselage made by balsa lighter wood and with perfect propellers that operates by rubber 


I have compiled my balsa wood rubber band glider  and took a part in an avionics competition in my university pafkiet.

 

B.   ORNITHOPTER

 

 

 An ornithopter (from GREEK ornithos "bird" and pteron "wing") is an aircraft that flies by flapping its wings. Designers seek to imitate the flapping-wing flight of birds, bats, and insects.

5.  PAPER  MODEL HELICOPTER  

 My paper model is to make high lift heavy weight lifter helicopter Chinook
The Boeing CH-47 Chinook is an American twin-engine, tandem rotor, heavy lift helicopter developed by American rotor craft company vertol and manufactured by Boeing vetrol. The CH-47 is among the heaviest lifting Western helicopters. Its name, Chinook, is from the native American Chinook people of modern-day Washington state.
