Introduction• Objectives
– VLM is a FORTRAN computer program estimating the subsonic aerodynamic characteristics of complex planforms.
• Predicting lift and pitch moment coefficients, maximum lift coefficient, induced drag coefficient and distributions of span load for the complex configurations.
• Background– VLM is a modified version of the NASA-Langley Vortex Lattice
Computer Program that had been used at the Langley Research Center and in industry.
– The original program has been modified to provide a useful tool for the aircraft design class in the university level.
• To simplify the input and output file for the fixed wing configuration.
• To display the panel arrangement presenting the platforms

Program Description
• The VLM consists of three subroutines:– geomtr– matxso– aerody
![Page 6: Aerodynamics of 3D Lifting Surfaces through Vortex Lattice ...aircraftdesign.nuaa.edu.cn/aca/Slide/14-Vortex Lattice Methods(3).pdf · induced drag coefficient and distributions of](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051305/5a9dd61d7f8b9a0d5a8cc83f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Program Description• Geomtr
– When the total approximate panel number is specified• it is used to determine the number of chordwise horseshoe
vortices
• the number of spanwise rows at which chordwise horseshoe vortices
• the panel aspect ratio is kept between 0.5 and 4
– When two planforms are used to describe a wing-tail configuration, this subroutine is used to handle with panel match between two planforms.
![Page 7: Aerodynamics of 3D Lifting Surfaces through Vortex Lattice ...aircraftdesign.nuaa.edu.cn/aca/Slide/14-Vortex Lattice Methods(3).pdf · induced drag coefficient and distributions of](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051305/5a9dd61d7f8b9a0d5a8cc83f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Program Description
• matxso – It is used to calculate the circulations which is
required to satisfy the tangent flow boundary condition.
– The circulations is determined by solving a matrix equation.
![Page 8: Aerodynamics of 3D Lifting Surfaces through Vortex Lattice ...aircraftdesign.nuaa.edu.cn/aca/Slide/14-Vortex Lattice Methods(3).pdf · induced drag coefficient and distributions of](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051305/5a9dd61d7f8b9a0d5a8cc83f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Program Description
• aerody – To obtain the lift and pitching moment data
for configurations by using Kutta-Loukowskitheorem.
– The final form of the output data is computed and printed by this subroutine.
![Page 9: Aerodynamics of 3D Lifting Surfaces through Vortex Lattice ...aircraftdesign.nuaa.edu.cn/aca/Slide/14-Vortex Lattice Methods(3).pdf · induced drag coefficient and distributions of](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051305/5a9dd61d7f8b9a0d5a8cc83f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Modeling the configuration
• Modeling planforms– The planforms can be modeled with one or two lifting surfaces
• where wing planform can consists of up to three segments, that is in-board, mid-board and out-board segments, and tail planform is modeled with a trapezoid.
• Modeling dihedrals– The wing can have up to three dihedral angles corresponding to
three segments of the wing.
– Winglets can be modeled, but the dihedral angle must be greater than -90.0 degrees or less than 90.0 degrees. The dihedral of the horizontal tail can be modeled with one dihedral angle.
![Page 10: Aerodynamics of 3D Lifting Surfaces through Vortex Lattice ...aircraftdesign.nuaa.edu.cn/aca/Slide/14-Vortex Lattice Methods(3).pdf · induced drag coefficient and distributions of](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051305/5a9dd61d7f8b9a0d5a8cc83f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Modeling twist– The wing can have up to three twist angles corresponding
to three segments of the wing. • For inboard segment, the angle of its tip section with respect to its
root section is used to define the twist of the inboard segment
– The twists are assumed to be small and can have effect on the local angle of attack of lifting surfaces, but no effect on displacements of control points.
• Modeling camber – When the airfoil of the wing is specified, its camber can
be modeled with a curve determined based on tabulated data by least-square-distance curve fit
• coordinates of ten points on mean camber line of the airfoil
![Page 11: Aerodynamics of 3D Lifting Surfaces through Vortex Lattice ...aircraftdesign.nuaa.edu.cn/aca/Slide/14-Vortex Lattice Methods(3).pdf · induced drag coefficient and distributions of](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051305/5a9dd61d7f8b9a0d5a8cc83f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Modeling elevator– It is assumed that the elevator can have effect on local angle of
attack of the control point on the horizontal tail
– the effect on displacements of control points is neglected when
the elevator is up or down.
• Definition of axis system

Limitations• A maximum of two planforms may be specified.
• A maximum of three segments with different twists and dihedrals may be used to define the wing of a configuration, but only one segment with one dihedral can be used to define the horizontal tail of the configuration.
• The maximum number of the panels on the left side the configuration plan of symmetry is 200. when you input the panel number more than 200, an error information will display on monitor.
• The variation in local chord must be continuous from the tip chord to the root chord of each planform specified.
• The panel number in each chordwise row must be at least two.

• You may use different panel number to run VLM, and make sure that the computed results reach the convergence.
• Some common rules of thumb may be used in selecting the panel number as indication in the interface when you run VLM.

STRVLM
数据的输入及修改都较以前直观、方便
考虑了机身的影响
翼型的计算不再仅限于NACA四位翼型
图像的输出也可完全根据用户的需要
