Title: Model representation in the PANCOR wall interference assessment code
Abstract: An investigation into the aircraft model description requirements of a wall interference assessment and correction code known as PANCOR was conducted. The accuracy necessary in specifying various elements of the model description were defined. It was found that the specified lift coefficient is the most important model parameter in the wind tunnel simulation. An accurate specification of the model volume was also found to be important. Also developed was a partially automated technique for generating wing lift distributions that are required as input to PANCOR. An existing three dimensional transonic small disturbance code was modified to provide the necessary information. A group of auxiliary computer programs and procedures was developed to help generate the required input for PANCOR.
