Abstract | Aerodynamic loads can cause problems in the dynamic balance of large diameter spacecraft. * Asymmetric loads cause systematic errors. A method of controlling the air velocity in the boundary layer of a cylindrical enclosure The enclosure has a diameter of 20 feet, and is 20 feet all. A reversible fan in a double A dynamic balance test program was performed on several test models in the enclosure. The The boundary layer control did not provide the desired reduction in fluctuating aerodynamic This method has particular application to the dynamic balance of large asymmetric spacecraft |
