Q

Define ‘VB.

A

Maximum speed at heavy gust intensity. At higher speed the maximum load factor would be exceeded during a heavy gust. May be devided in VBmin and VBmax. Then A speed lower than VBmin would result in a stall.

Q

VMO or VNE (can/can not) be higher then VC.

A

VMO or VNE (can not) be higher then VC.

19
Q

State whether gust-load factor will increase or decrease for an increase in the following:

  • lift-curve slope
  • aspect ratio
  • wing loading
  • weight
  • speed of vertical gust
A

State whether gust-load factor will increase or decrease for an increase in the following:

  • lift-curve slope → increase (same increase in AoA generates larger change in CL for a steep slope)
  • aspect ratio → increase (large slope of curve)
  • wing loading → decrease
  • weight → decrease
  • speed of vertical gust → increase
20
Q

State whether gust-load factor will increase or decrease for an increase in the following:

  • angle of sweep
  • altitude
  • wing area
  • EAS
A

State whether gust-load factor will increase or decrease for an increase in the following:

  • angle of sweep → decrease ​(small slope of curve)
  • altitude → decrease
  • wing area → increase (lift increases and therefor the load factor)
  • EAS → increase
21
Q

The minimum gust speed that an aircraft must be designed to withstand at VD is (25/50/55/66) ft/sec.

A
