Heat Treatment Precipitation-Hardening Corrosion-Resistant, Maraging, and Secondary Hardening Steel Parts

2018-04-28
HISTORICAL
AMS2759/3G
This specification, in conjunction with the general requirements for steel heat treatment covered in AMS2759, establishes the requirements for heat treatment of precipitation-hardening corrosion-resistant, maraging and secondary hardening, steel parts. Parts are defined in AMS2759. Parts made from steels other than those specified in this specification may be heat treated in accordance with the applicable requirements herein using processing temperatures, times, and other parameters recommended by the material producer unless otherwise specified by the purchaser. General ordering instructions are specified in AMS2759.

the advantages of the new SAE standard for INVOLUTE SPLINES from a design standpoint

1959-01-01
590056
INVOLUTE SPLINES enjoy three major advantages over their straight-sided counterparts: 1. New design concepts have given a more rational approach to clearances and errors. 2. Manufacturing is cheaper and more accurate. 3. Gaging is simpler. Thus, the involute spline standard of SAE and ASA continue to take precedence over the older straight-sided standards.

Ducted Fuel Injection: Confirmed Re-entrainment Hypothesis

2024-04-09
2024-01-2885
Testing of ducted fuel injection (DFI) in a single-cylinder engine with production-like hardware previously showed that adding a duct structure increased soot emissions at the full load, rated speed operating point [1]. The authors hypothesized that the DFI flame, which travels faster than a conventional diesel combustion (CDC) flame, and has a shorter distance to travel, was being re-entrained into the on-going fuel injection around the lift-off length (LOL), thus reducing air entrainment into the on-going injection. The engine operating condition and the engine combustion chamber geometry were duplicated in a constant pressure vessel. The experimental setup used a 3D piston section combined with a glass fire deck allowing for a comparison between a CDC flame and a DFI flame via high-speed imaging. CH* imaging of the 3D piston profile view clearly confirmed the re-entrainment hypothesis presented in the previous engine work.

Optimizing High-Lift Airfoils for Formula Student Vehicles

2024-01-5059
This document presents a study on the design and simulation of a high-lift airfoil intended for usage in multielement setups such as the wings present on open-wheel race cars. With the advancement of open-wheel race car aerodynamics, the design of existing high-lift airfoils has been altered to create a more useful and practical general profile. Adjoint optimization tools in CFD (ANSYS Fluent) were employed to increase the airfoil’s performance beyond existing high-lift profiles (Selig S1223). Improvements of up to 20% with a CL of 2.4 were recorded. To further evaluate performance, the airfoil was made the basis of a full three-dimensional aerodynamics package design for an open-wheel Formula Student car. CFD simulations were carried out on the same and revealed performance characteristics of the airfoil in a more practical application. These CFD simulations were calibrated with experimental values from coast-down testing data with an accuracy of 8%.

CURRENT
AESQRM009202103
AS13100 AESQ Quality Management System Requirements for Aero Engine Design and Production Organizations Standard was created to replace customer specific quality requirements – leading to simplification and harmonization between engine manufacturer supply chains. AS13100 is supported by a series of 13 AESQ Reference Manuals (RM) that provide additional detail on certain subjects to describe the intent of the standard and to provide guidance on deployment. The Reference Manuals are designed to enable the supply chain to deploy the AS13100 requirements efficiently and effectively. The AESQ RMs provide case studies, guidance material, forms and checklists specific to each section of the standard to aid the user with implementation.

CURRENT
AIR6977
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides a comprehensive overview of primary water content measurement instrumentation, for both facility-based icing research and in-flight icing research, over the range of commonly used aircraft certification icing envelopes. It includes information on the theory of operation of the instruments, system errors and limitations, and practical considerations when using them for cloud characterization. This document does not address other icing cloud measurements of interest, such as particle sizing, or measurement of phenomena such as snow, sleet, or hail.

Dimensional Life of Heat-Shrinkable Sleeve

CURRENT
AIR7930
This SAE Aerospace Information Report provides additional information and background in regard to the dimensional life of a heat-shrinkable sleeve. The term dimensional life is newly introduced in AS23053 to relate to the dimensional stability instead of the material stability often associated or referred to as the “shelf life.” When the material exceeds such shelf life, it becomes harmful or non-functional.

Spark Anemometry of Bulk Gas Velocity at the Plug Gap of a Firing Engine

1995-10-01
952459
The objective of the present work was to investigate a rapid method of obtaining the convection velocity of the bulk gas near the spark plug gap of a firing engine at the time of ignition. To accomplish this, a simple model was developed which utilized both the secondary current and voltage signals, from a conventional spark discharge. The model assumed the spark path was elongated in a rectangular U-shape by the flow. Based on experimentally measured electrical signals the mean convection velocity was computed. The convection velocity calculated by the model first needed calibration which was accomplished with a bench test that used a hot wire anemometer. The technique has a weak correlation at low velocities of 1-2 m/s, but correlates well at higher velocities up to 15 m/s.
