| description | This paper studies several problems that may exist in the aerodynamic design of low Mach number general aircraft, and discusses the design characteristics of the pressure distribution of some related airfoils while part of the characteristics is verified by a multi-point laminar airfoil design case. Firstly, several issues which exist in the aerodynamic design of low Mach number general aircraft, such as relatively large zero-lift drag coefficient, high stall performance requirements, and large variation range of Reynolds number, are discussed and analyzed. Then, to address these issues, the paper extracts some useful design features that are beneficial to the airfoil aerodynamic performance from the study on the design characteristics of the pressure distribution of several turbulent flow airfoils and laminar flow airfoils that are designed for low Mach number general aircraft. Finally, by considering the typical design conditions of a light multi-purpose single-turboprop-engine general aircraft, including the cruise, climb and stall conditions, a multi-point laminar airfoil optimization is offered by using the GAW-1 airfoil as the baseline. The optimized foil has a 9.6 improvement in the lift-to-drag ratio of the cruise condition, a 16.3 improvement in the lift-to-drag ratio of the climb condition but a 0.115 decrease in the maximum lift coefficient of the stall condition. The results show that the requirements from the cruise, climb and stall conditions are contradictory to some degree in the considering multi-point optimization case, and the designers should deal with this trade-off carefully based on the features of the low Mach number general aircraft. |
