Thrust Vectoring for Advanced Fighter Aircraft - High Angle of Attack Intake Investigations -

Abstract

In this paper the results of investigations will be presented which dealt with the determination of intake flows at high and very high angles of attack. The overall approach comprised of experimental and numerical(CFD) investigations will be detailed. Results and comparisons between flows at small and large angles of attack will be used to try to clarify the origin of possible disturbances in the intake flow. Intake bleed and the flow losses at the intake entrance are identified as major components contributing to the quality of the intake flow at the engine face.
