Numerical analysis of bio-mimetic concept for active flow control on wing surface
Čermák, Jakub ; Navrátil, Jan (referee) ; Popela, Robert (advisor)
V této diplomové práci je provedena optimalizace profilu křídla vybaveného elastickou klapkou umístěnou na horní straně profilu. Optimalizační proces je proveden s vyžitím CFD prostředků, konkrétně URANS metody. V prvních kapitolách je popsána historie vývoje křídla vybaveného pohyblivými klapkami. Práce pokračuje popisem a zdůvodněním volby numerické metody. Vytvoření geometrie a výpočetní sítě je krátce popsáno. V práci je také prezentována validace a verifikace dané výpočetní metody. Případová studie je zaměřena na profil LS(1)-0417mod vybavený 20%, 30% a 40% dlouhou, pevnou kalpkou na různých úhlech náběhu. Aerodynamická účinnost společně s proudovým polem je analyzována. Je provedena nelineární pevnostní analýza s využitím MKP programu za účelem vyhodnocení ohybové tuhosti a deformovaného tvaru elastické klapky tak, aby byly splněný podmínky nutné pro automatické vychýlení.

Aerodynamic analysis of low orbit launcher
Fojtl, Michal ; Navrátil, Jan (referee) ; Popela, Robert (advisor)
Master’s thesis deals with aerodynamic heating of launch vehicle during ascent phase by using CFD simulation. Ascent trajectory and payload fairing geometry is design using data of existing small launch vehicles. Critical flight regimes are identified using 2D calculations, and in these regimes analysis is performed by axially symmetric simulations. Simulation results are compared to values obtained from theoretical and semi-empirical calculations.

High performance paraglider aerodynamic optimization
Grim, Robert ; Navrátil, Jan (referee) ; Popela, Robert (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the aerodynamic analysis of the competition paraglider wing. Drags of the particular wing parts are divided into chapters. The aim was to get a grasp of sizes of the individual components drags in relation to the entire assembly. In the first instance, a 2D profile and then the entire configuration of the 3D wing was analyzed. After the evaluation, some power reserves were detected in an airfoil and so the airfoil shape was optimized. After the optimization of the individual components, the CFD calculation was used again. At the end, geometry changes were evaluated.

CFD analysis of icing effects on commuter aircraft configuration
Zima, Martin ; Navrátil, Jan (referee) ; Popela, Robert (advisor)
The Diploma Thesis concerns investigation of icing effects at L 410 NG aircraft. The aircraft is certified under FAR/CS/AP-23 Commuter category. An analysis was performed for existing Pneumatic De-icing Boots System at the wing area according to three flight configurations and icing conditions referring to document Part 25 Appendix C and O. The analysis was done by CFD solver FENSAP-ICE for various runs with respect to the icing envelope. Cases were assigned as two 2D cross-sections situated at the aircraft’s wing aileron part. Cross-sectional Reynold’s number oscillate between 4.5–8.5×106. Automatic operation of Pneumatic De-icing Boots System was proposed. Attention was paid to the ice accretion aft to the Pneumatic De-icing Boots System. The Appendix (Příloha) P6 contains an English written Article concerning main Diploma Thesis sections.

Aerodynamic analysis and shape optimization of ARES aircraft
Foltýn, Pavel ; Navrátil, Jan (referee) ; Popela, Robert (advisor)
This thesis deals with the aerodynamic analysis and shape modifications of the ARES aircraft. The analysis focuses on the evaluation lift, drag, and pitching moment coefficient, and further to identify the locations of stripping stream which is characterized by high drag. Before the analysis calibration of the CFD solver is done with the model, which has been measured in the wind tunnel. The aim of calibration is to verify the accuracy and veracity of the methodology used in mesh creation and calculated values. Calculated values are compared with measured data. The shape modifications of the aircraft are focused on conceptual design of the suction inlets for cooling radiators and engine aircraft. Aerodynamic analysis is performed with the modified model in order to determine the variation of lift, drag and pitching moment coefficient from its original configuration.
