Calculation of Pressure Distribution on Airship Hulls
- Creators
- von Kármán, Theodor
Abstract
These calculations, made at the request of the Zeppelin Airship Company of Friederichshafen, Germany, were based on the shape of the ZR III, with the following simplifications: cars, fins, and rudders removed; all cross sections replaced by equivalent circular cross sections. Under these assumptions the pressure distribution was calculated for the following cases: symmetrical case, or flow parallel to the axis; unsymmetrical case, or flow at an angle to the axis. In both cases the simple potential flow first forms the basis for the determination of the pressure distribution.
