RD 12 YRS CHEM/MESA LBUSD OBJECTIVE TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT A BALSAWOOD GLIDER THAT WILL HAVE THE LONGEST FLIGHT TIME WHEN LAUNCHED FROM A HAND HELD CATAPULT. MATERIALS BALSAWOOD. GLUE – ANY TYPE. MODELING CLAY. PAINT, STICKERS, INK, AND MARKERS MAY BE USED FOR DECO OR ID. RULES NO READY MADE KITS. GLIDER WITH CLAY BALLAST 1:1 DRAWING WITH ISOMETRIC AND PLAN VIEWS- CAD AND HAND DRAWN PERMITTED RULES- (CONT’D) NOSE HOOK FOR LAUNCHING A MUST. CATAPAULT WILL BE PROVIDED LAUNCH RELEASE Ht=6 ft. max 3 LAUNCHES- 2 BEST COUNTED 4 FORCES OF FLIGHT AXIS OF ROTATION FLIGHT THEORY Newton’s 3 laws of Motion Inertia F=ma Action=Reaction Bernoulli’s Law of fluid flow (1730’s) K= ? mv2 + PV + mgh K= ? rv2 + P + rgh r= density K=1/2rv2 + P + rgh ANGLE OF INCIDENCE ANGLE OF ATTACK DIHEDRALS WHY DIHEDRALS? WING VORTEX SOLUTION GLIDER TAIL TAIL FUNCTION HORIZONTAL STABILIZER-CONTROL PITCH- NOSE UP/NOSE DOWN VERTICAL STABILIZER- CONTROL YAW- LEFT/RIGHT STABILIZER SIZES OUTDOORS- HORIZONTAL-1/5 AREA OF WING VERTICAL-1/3 TO 1/2 OF HORIZONTAL INDOORS- HORIZONTAL-1/6 TO 1/8 WING AREA VERTICAL- 1/3 TO ? OF HORIZONTAL HINTS NO SQUARE EDGES. STABILIZERS SMALL BUT NOT TO THE POINT OF INSTABILITY CENTER OF GRAVITY OF FINISHED GLIDER IS 1/3 TO ? FROM THE FRONT EDGE OF THE WING. TAPERED BOOM. OUTDOORS USE GLIDERS HEAVIER THAN 10 GRAMS. MORE HINTS FUSELAGE LENGTH EQUAL TO OR SLIGHTLY LONGER THAN WINGSPAN WING LOADING RATIO= GLIDER WEIGHT/WING AREA LOWER IS BETTER. GLIDE RATIO= DIST./SINK RATE CIRCULAR FLIGHT PATTERN USE ‘TOOLS’ and ‘JIGS AND FIXTURES’ FOR DIHEDRALS, ETC. FLIGHT PATH TROUBLE SHOOTING MORE TS ADDRESS David Braunstein dbraunst@csulb.edu *
