Calculation of the hydrodynamic characteristics of polyplanes
Abstract
The problem of the oscillatory motion of a polyplane in an ideal incompressible fluid is solved in a linear formulation using the discrete vortex method. Results of numerical calculations are presented as plots of the coefficient of the longitudinal force component vs the dimensionless motion velocity. The results can be useful in evaluating the efficiency of various propulsion systems.
