Fundamental Aerodynamics

  • 1 ONERA, a world-class leader in CFD

    The results obtained confirm that ONERA is in the lead worldwide in methods for unsteady aerodynamics... ONERA thus measured itself against the international state of the art in terms of precision and performance of modern CFD methods for unsteady aerodynamics:** fine multiscale turbulence, higher-order geometric representations, HPC (High Performance Computing) efficiency, shock / boundary layer interaction problems
  • 2 Lightning Hazards to Aircraft and Launchers

    The next one will present advances on" Flow Control: the Renewal of Aerodynamics" (June 2013). www.aerospacelab-journal.org... The papers strive to enlighten how fundamental knowledge of the physics of lightning can be applied to assess the reality of lightning threats and to improve the effectiveness of aircraft certification against lightning
  • 3 ONERA at the Paris Air Show: together with its partners

    The Microscope satellite must carry out a fundamental theoretical physics experiment while in orbit: the testing of the general relativity postulate known as the principle of equivalence... Réplic'Air will analyze the data resulting from this partnership, from the standpoint of the safety of the pilot and of the aircraft and ONERA will analyze it from the standpoint of aerodynamics, the dynamic behavior of the aircraft and the propeller wash phenomenon
