COORDINATED TURN

How do they do that ?

AE-705 Introduction to Flight Lecture No 14 Capsule-07

1. Constant Altitude 2. Banking of the a/c in horizontal plane 3. No tangential acceleration 4. Turn without a sideslip 5. Coordination b/w Ailerons and Rudder

Coordinated Turn

Use of Rudder in a turn … why ??

Rudder for yaw and ailerons to roll

we will see that later on

Effect of bank angle

Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge

Bank angle in a turn results in:

  • Higher rate of turn
  • Smaller radius of turn
  • Higher loading on the wings
  • Higher stall speed

AE-705 Introduction to Flight Lecture No 14 Capsule-07

Fastest turn

  • Max. turn rate
  • Measure of a/c’s maneuverability
  • Depends on a/c design parameters

V should be min n should be max

Sustained turn rate when

  • Thrust/weight
  • Wing loading
  • Aspect Ratio
slide-16

AE-705 Introduction to Flight Lecture No 14 Capsule-07

Tightest turn

  • Min turn radius
  • Measure of maneuverability
  • Depends on design parameters

V should be min n should be max

What is Vmin and nmax ?? What are constraints on nmax Find out yourself ! Report on Moodle

Instantaneous turn rate when

  • Thrust/weight
  • Wing loading
  • Altitude

Instantaneous & Sustained turn

  • Dogfight are generally dependent on rate of turn
  • Aircraft which can turn faster will get into an

advantageous firing position quickly ITR is a measure of how quickly an aircraft is able to turn at the beginning of the turn The turn rate which can be maintained for a period of time is called the STR (Sustained turn rate)

Depends on wing loading & Thrust to weight ratio Tejas wing loading: 247 kg/m² F-16C Block 50 wing loading: 431 kg/m² Lesser the wing loading more will be the ITR

At horizontal plane STR, ITR > STR the LCA outperforms the F-16A/B at high Mach numbers and the F-16C/D under all Mach number regimes.

Tejas v/s F-16

T:W is favorable for the F16, though the difference is smaller (1.09 v/s 1.07 ) STR of F-16 > Tejas at slower speeds (< M = 0.65) Tejas dominates at speeds greater than 0.65

  • Dogfights generally happen at M > 0.65
  • @ M < 0.65 Tejas = F-16
slide-24

AE-705 Introduction to Flight Lecture No 14 Capsule-07

Outcome of a dog-fight is difficult to predict because it depends on

  • the pilot,
  • the initial positions of the aircraft
  • the aircraft specs.

Tejas will dominate the F-16 in a majority of engagements based on the aerodynamic characteristics Made in INDIA

the AOA and the airspeed

  • The smooth flow of air over the

wing begins again, lift returns, and the aircraft begins to fly again.
