TEST CASES

3rd AIAA CFD High Lift Prediction Workshop

The test cases for HiLiftPW-3 are defined in the following document:

OfficialTestCases-HiLiftPW-3-2017.pdf (last updated 03/02/2017)

For the required test cases, participants are asked to run on at least one set of grids to be provided by the HiLiftPW Committee (if possible). The official supplied geometry must be used if/when participants create their own grids, and self-generated grids must be uploaded to the HiLiftPW Committee.

Geometric Reference Parameters for the NASA HL-CRM (note the geometry is in INCHES):

• Mean aerodynamic chord (MAC) = 275.8 in, located at y=468.75 in
• Wing semi-span = 1156.75 in
• Reference area of the semi-span model = Sref/2 = 297,360.0 in²
• Moment reference center (MRC): x=1325.90 in, y=0.0 in, z=177.95 in
• Note: the y-location for the MRC has been corrected as of 4/29/2020; previously it was listed as y=468.75 in, but y=468.75 in is the location of the MAC
• An incorrect y-location for MRC makes no difference for the pitching moment, which is the only moment requested

Geometric Reference Parameters for the JSM (note the geometry is in MILLIMETERS):

• Mean aerodynamic chord (MAC) = 529.2 mm
• Wing semi-span = 2300.0 mm
• Reference area of the semi-span model = Sref/2 = 1,123,300.0 mm²
• Moment reference center (MRC): x=2375.7 mm, y=0.0 mm, z=0.0 mm
