    I wish they could have discussed power source vibration frequency and amplitude issues in both low/high-speed conditions on the airframe during flight and issues it could have on the expansion/compression of the airframe. That might have taken the conversation too deep, but I brought it up because if it is not considered during development over the lifecycle of an aircraft, it can compound structural costs to repair with no way to fix the issue.

    This was an interesting interview. Something that really resonated with me was the fact they use CFD to a point, and wind tunnels to a point. But they go back to the 50's style of pure math to work things out. Then that triggered memories back to dynamics and one of the guys was really punching out the calculus and numerical analysis to understand what he was doing not just doing it. He knew from day one of engineering that he wanted to build rockets. Somehow he knew exactly what he needed to do when the lecturers constantly said "There's a proof for this and you can work it out if you try hard enough but I'll just give you the equation". I feel now, that the lecturers made a mistake. There's knowing and there's understanding. The difference may be subtle but it's Important. It's the difference between knowing your shit and knowing you're shit.

    Great interview. Nice to hear directly from Joe. Very interesting that Joe discussed the exit nozzle drag issue on the SR-71's engine, but not the reverse circulation around the outside of the engine at high Mach #'s that NASA discovered in the 1970's- which resulted in an enormous amount of drag that Lockheed never found the source of. This led to the SR-71 needing much more thrust (fuel burn) at high cruise speed than had been anticipated. This design to in practice difference impacted the SR-71's range enormously. Curious to know if maybe I have my information wrong, and maybe it is this exit nozzle issue that NASA discovered???

    Also emmisivity is a function of several things including wavelength so something can be close to 1 in the infrared but close to 0 in the visible.

    Interesting video! I hope they will be successful! In that altitude vs airspeed diagram at the end, are you basically finding the geodesic on the fuel-specific energy surface between the origin and the minimum at the target max airspeed?

  • @craigsmith1354

    Thank you for that video it was really great . It was the same issues we had in my days as an engineering student doing ballistic trajectories and performance. That plane would more suit the longer flights Trans pacific, ny - Japan, Australia, New Zealand. As described time to altitude may make trips western Europe not feasible due cost of fuel for a short flight at those speeds . To me ,we need to have SSTs again it's the 21st century and we have no wow factor in air travel like concorde was , sad .

    The F-8 also had a variable incidence wing that actually flew but of a much simpler design and for improving landing visibility and engine inlet angle wrt the airflow.

    Man, you really can see the advantage of the X-15 "just use a rocket engine" approach... Especially given the fact they still have to be tied to aerospace primes to help provide large parts of the jet engine, whereas the launch startups often just make their own engines totally from scratch. I really honestly think a rocketplane could be decently efficient, too, using a skip-glide approach, probably allowing transatlantic flight.

    • @ewanlee6337

      The benefits from using rockets would not be worth the extra cost from needing to buy/make oxidiser and then carrying that weight increasing fuel use.

    • @TheAnachronist
      @TheAnachronist Месяц назад

      Oxidizer is extremely freaking cheap, though. That's a thing a lot of people don't get about rockets: the oxygen is basically free, and the acceleration is high enough that the gravity losses aren't a big deal. When I mean free, I mean like $100, maybe even $50 per *tonne*, compared to like $10,000 per tonne of liquid hydrogen. So even though you need 8 times as much oxygen as hydrogen, the oxygen is basically free.@@ewanlee6337

    So interesting the back to basics near hand calculated fluid dynamics. My mom was an engineer at AVRO and the ARROW interceptor was designed using slide rules, giant hand cranked mechanical calculators, tables and graphs they hand drew, hand drawn blueprints and models shot off rockets over Lake Ontario for some high speed data. The result was IMHO a beautiful bird in its form and some pretty impressive performance.

    White paint has also low absorptivity in the spectrum of light, coatings like Enbio used on Solar Orbiter would counter both heat source. At least, that is the goal.

    With regard to the variable geometry wing, I wonder if they could include a variable incidence wing like the rotating one he mentioned but maybe using a system similar to what the F-8 Crusader used.
