COMPUTATION OF AEROELASTIC EFFECTS ON THE WING OF AIRCRAFT

Abstract

This paper deals with static aeroelastic wing computation. Suitability of the Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) method for aeroelastic computing is examined in Ansys software interface. It is investigated if the FSI method in Ansys is appropriate for monolithic wing structure. After the solution of the problem with created structural and aerodynamical meshes with consistent interface, it is concluded that the Ansys FSI is applicable for aeroelastic computing of the thin walled structure with complicated geometry, probably with the external meshing software.
