Patent number: 9327829Abstract: A method for attenuating aerodynamic noise from a landing gear may include researching a start point of a shear layer as a flow field characteristic of a region in the vicinity of an original shape of the landing gear, and adding a plate-shaped object in the vicinity of the start point, changing the start point to an edge portion of the plate-shaped object to make the shear layer farther from the original shape. Another method for attenuating aerodynamic noise from a landing gear may include researching a static pressure and an airflow velocity in a region in the vicinity of the landing gear as a flow field characteristic of the region, and adding a plate-shaped object covering a surface of the landing gear which is different from a surface facing an upstream side in an airflow direction, increasing the static pressure in the region to reduce the airflow velocity.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2010Date of Patent: May 3, 2016Assignees: THE SOCIETY OF JAPANESE AEROSPACE COMPANIES, KAWASAKI JUKOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHA, SUMITOMO PRECISION PRODUCTS CO., LTD.Inventors: Kazuhide Isotani, Kenji Hayama, Toshiyuki Kumada, Masaru Ono

Patent number: 9233761Abstract: A flight path maker (FPM) and a target attitude relative to air display are displayed on a primary flight display (PFD), which is an integrated indicator. The target attitude relative to air display is a mark indicating a target attitude relative to air representing a target angle-of-attack and a target sideslip angle of the aircraft to achieve a target flight path. The PFD displays the relative difference between the FPM and the target attitude relative to air display and shows that the aircraft is flying in the target traveling direction when the FPM matches (is superposed on) the target attitude relative to air display. Thus, controlling with higher trackability than controlling performed based on a target attitude relative to ground is enabled.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2011Date of Patent: January 12, 2016Assignees: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD., THE SOCIETY OF JAPANESE AEROSPACE COMPANIESInventor: Koichi Yamasaki

Publication number: 20140179188Abstract: A ceramic composite material is comprised of a fabric of fibers of an inorganic substance; and a matrix for combining the fibers. The matrix consists essentially of a ceramic. The matrix is formed by burying the fabric in a mixture of a powder of carbon, a powder of silicon and a medium including an organic solvent, producing an oscillation in the mixture to impregnate the fabric with the mixture, and calcining the fabric impregnated with the mixture.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2014Publication date: June 26, 2014Applicants: THE SOCIETY OF JAPANESE AEROSPACE COMPANIES, INC., ISHIKAWAJIMA-HARIMA HEAVY INDUSTRIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Hiroshige MURATA, Takeshi Nakamura, Yasutomo Tanaka

Patent number: 8758545Abstract: A method for producing a molded body in which the matrix of a composite material is prevented from penetrating into carbon foam. The method includes: disposing a thermosetting adhesive (3) on a porous body (2), disposing a composite material (4) containing a thermosetting resin as a matrix on the adhesive, curing the adhesive, and liquefying and curing the matrix of the composite material after the adhesive has been cured. In this production method, because the cured adhesive bonds strongly to the porous body before the matrix of the composite material is liquefied, the subsequently liquefied matrix of the composite material can be prevented from penetrating into the interior of the porous body.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2011Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignees: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd., The Society of Japanese Aerospace CompaniesInventors: Takayuki Shimizu, Yuya Nagatomo, Daisuke Miwa, Sohei Arakawa, Toru Nishioka, Yusuke Shibuya

Publication number: 20140037429Abstract: A plurality of film cooling holes are formed, so as to communicate with a front cooling passage, in a vane surface on the front-edge side of a stator vane body of a turbine stator vane. The hole cross-section of each of the film cooling holes has a rectangular long-hole shape extending in a direction parallel to the cross-section along the span direction and having a rounded corner. The hole-center line of each of the film cooling holes is inclined with respect to the thickness direction in the cross-section along the span direction. The exit-side portion of the hole wall surface of each of the film cooling holes is inclined with respect to the thickness direction by a greater degree than that of the hole-center line.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2013Publication date: February 6, 2014Applicants: The Society of Japanese Aerospace Companies, Inc., IHI CorporationInventor: Yoji OKITA
