Abstract :
The vane support system (VSS) causes less distortion to the rear fuselage. It is an ideal support mechanism for large aircraft wind tunnel tests. Investigating on its support interference will contribute much to the conduction and development of VSS tests. This paper presents a numerical investigation on the support interference of VSS in high speed wind tunnel using Ty154 model. CFD results are compared with experiment results to make the numerical method reliable. Then Ty154 model with and without vanes are simulated. The magnitude of interference achieved is quite small. Its interference characteristics vary with Mach numbers and incidences. The vanes would also do some interference to the flow field.
