Prediction of Crosswind Separation Velocity for Fan and Nacelle Systems Using Body Force Models: Part 2: Comparison of Crosswind Separation Velocity with and without Detailed Fan Stage Geometry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Modern aircraft engines must accommodate inflow distortions entering the engines as a consequence of modifying the size, shape, and placement of the engines and/or nacelle to increase propulsive efficiency and reduce aircraft weight and drag. It is important to be able to predict the interactions between the external flow and the fan early in the design process. This is challenging due to computational cost and limited access to detailed fan/engine geometry. In this, the second part of a two part paper, we apply the fan gas path and body force model design process from Part 1 to the problem of predicting flow separation over an engine nacelle lip caused by crosswind. The inputs to the design process are based on NASA Stage 67. A body force model using the detailed Stage 67 geometry is also used to enable assessment of the accuracy of the design process based approach. In uniform flow, the model produced by the design process recreates the spanwise loading distribution of Rotor 67 with a 7% RMS error. Both models are then employed to predict crosswind separation velocity. The two approaches are found to agree in their prediction of the crosswind separation velocity to within 5%.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
