Bird and hail stone impact resistance analysis on a jet engine composite air inlet

Abstract: Abstract. Bird or hail stone impacts are an important phenomenon that must be taken into consideration when designing aircraft. As engines are the sole thrust-providing mechanisms of an aircraft, it is critical that the effects of bird or hail stone strikes on engine inlets and systems be investigated and mitigated to the greatest extent possible. A combination of experiments and numerical simulations is necessary to properly understand the behaviour of a bird or hail stone during impact and the reaction of th… Show more

“…This is a good choice for experiments with low impact-point-precision and impact-energy-accuracy requirements, such as testing hail-protection systems (27) or crop damage (3). This also works with medium precision and accuracy requirements, for instance testing solar panels (28), as well as jet engine air-inlet resistance to hail (29). An advantage of this impact simulation option is that it can take place in a regular-sized room.…”

“…This is technically demanding, but necessary for a numerical-model verification. 4 The use of high-speed load cells makes it possible to record the time-dependent force response of an impact event. However, the major difficulty of this approach is the existence of parasitic resonances.…”

“…The disadvantage of a standard square (or rectangle) specimen is the risk of non-regular flaws (Figure 1). 4 The specimen is typically over-loaded at the centers of the edges, causing the risk of cracks and disruptions, while damages of a specific form can appear in the corners. To avoid these types of flaws, we should use a round specimen as the optimum form is the circle.…”
