IV B.Tech I Semester Examinations,MAY 2011 FLIGHT VEHICLE DESIGN Aeronautical Engineering Time: 3 hours Max Marks: 80 Answer any FIVE Questions All Questions carry equal marks
1. Describe the various types of landing gear. If you are designing a high subsonic airliner, which type of landing gear would you go for? Justify your answer. [16]
2. Determine the center-of-gravity location of an airplane given the following data: Wengine = 400 kg, Wpayload = 500 kg, Wbaggage = 60 kg, Xengine = 20 m, Xpayload = 10 m, Xbaggage = 15 m. Xs are distances measured from the nose of the fuselage. [16]
3. Explain the major dierences in the designs of the fuselages of a military cargo plane and a civil cargo plane. Justify your answer. Draw neat sketches. [16] 4. Write short notes, with neat sketches, on
(b) Weight distribution on wing - ideal and actual, (d) Wing carry - through structures
5. What are the major constructional details of the aircraft which the conceptual sketch should indicate? Elaborate. [16] 6. Explain the dierence between the followings: (a) Single haul and multi-haul aircraft (b) Elliptic and double-bubble cabin cross section
(c) Reference wing area and lifting wing area

7. Draw specications for a business (executive) jet airplane to perform short haul service with a seating capacity for eight (8) passengers. Make use of sketches and graphs to illustrate your answer. [16] 8. (a) Discuss the historical trend of t/c (thickness to chord ratio) versus Mach number for an aircraft. Draw the pertinent graphs.
(b) Would you prefer a high t/c (thickness to chord ratio) or low t/c for a supersonic aircraft?
(c) For M = 2, the historical trend indicates t/c (thickness to chord ratio) = 0.04. Discuss why it was used. What are the advantages and disadvantages of high t/c?
