1.0 SUMMARY
This is a report on the feasibility and desirability of measuring in-service flight inertia
loads on the 747/JT9D propulsion system. Feasibility is based on technical and economic
considerations while desirability is based on the requirement for such data in under
standing short-term deterioration of the JT9D engine.
It is concluded that the flight test is considered feasible for both the airline-owned in-service
and the Boeing-owned RA001 test airplanes, but the Boeing RA001 airplane has decided
technical and economic advantages. Current knowledge of nacelle aerodynamic loads are
concluded to be adequate for JT9D Diagnostics Studies. The existence of a large amount of
test data on inertia loads has been revealed. Its adequacy for the JT9D Diagnostics Study
is unknown and may hinge on the relative importance of nacelle aerodynamic and inertia
loads on deterioration.
It is recommended that the flight test be postponed until more knowledge of the impact of
aero and inertia loads in determined in other activities of the Engine Diagnostics Contract. In
conjunction with these activities, an in-depth review of existing inertia loads test data is
recommended. Subsequently, if inertia loads are determined to be a large contributor to
deterioration and if sufficient existing inertia loads data do not exist, then the flight test
should proceed.
The Boeing Commercial Airplane Company, under subcontract to Pratt & Whitney, has
conducted a feasibility study of measuring propulsion system flight inertia loads during a
typical revenue service flight of the JT9D Propulsion System on a 747 airplane. This is a
report of the feasibility study.
This effort is part of Task II of the JT9D Engine Diagnostic Contract. The purpose of
Task II is to obtain in-service performance deterioration data.
TSFC deterioration.
4. To provide design data for new propulsion system designs related to the NASA Energy
Efficient Engine Program.
The study was limited to inertia type loads, under an assumption that this will be the most
cost effective measure of the propulsion system loads. Also, knowledge of aerodynamic
loads on the nacelle is tentatively considered to be satisfactory for the purpose of studying
TSFC deterioration. Considerable more expense would be required to measure nacelle aero
dynamic loads. This could be proposed at some later time if required. Measurement of the
temperatures and strains on the engine cases were also considered desirable but is outside
the economic scope of this study.
Boeing's role in Task II, "In-Service Performance Deterioration," consists of two tasks:
The Feasibility Study will determine the requirements and means for acquiring propulsion
system loads and optionally the measurement of engine performance data. The Test Plan
will provide the design of a flightworthy instrumentation package, installation, and test plan.
Two airplane options are considered: 1) an airline-owned in-service airplane, and 2) a Boeing
owned test airplane RAOO1. This is a six-month duration study, requiring 1200 engineering
manhours, four months for feasibility and two months for the test plan.

3.0 STUDY OBJECTIVES
The objectives of this program are to determine the feasibility and desirability of measuring
in-service flight inertia loads for a typical in-service revenue flight. Feasibility relates to the
technical and economic requirements while desirability relates to the need of collecting the
data. The need depends on the relative impact of inertia loads on deterioration and on the
amount of already existing test data that might be applicable to diagnostics.

4.0 FLIGHT LOADS BACKGROUND
4.1 CLASSIFICATION OF FLIGHT LOADS
Flight loads on the propulsion system can be divided in two categories, engine loads and air
plane loads.
1. Engine loads are loads that are independent of the,airplane flight environment.
-Engine loands include:
2. Airplane loads are loads imposed on the propulsion system by the airplane flight environ
ment.
* Aerodynamic pressures, both steady state and transient due to gust and maneuvers.
* Inertia forces due to gust, maneuvers, landing impact and runway roughness.
It should be noted that the nacelle is affected directly and indirectly by unsteady aero
dynamic loads. Thus, a vertical gust will suddenly change the aerodynamic load
distribution on the nacelle, setting up nacelle vibrations with respect to the wing, and will
also induce wing oscillations that impose additional inertia forces on the nacelle.
As a result of the Task IIIA efforts related to airplane flight loads, considerable data were
determind to exist which had not been previously examined in relation to engine deteriora
tion. These data consisted of wind, tunnel tests, flight pressure tests, flight flutter tests, and
flight loads surveys. In addition, theoretical analysis programs were reviewed for their
potential for generating nacelle pressure and inertia data. The Task IIIA scope permitted
only the investigation of nacelle pressure data, which have been thoroughly analyzed and
introduced into the Task IIIA analytical efforts. The existing nacelle inertia loads data are
extensive, and are derived from approximately 160 flight flutter tests and 14 flight loads
survey tests and 14 flight loads survey tests. Their applicability to engine diagnostics is yet to
be determined. Each of the loads data sources are now briefly reviewed.
Twelve wind tunnel tests were investigated, seven for force data and five for pressure
data. None of these tests provided the combination of correct geometry, mass flow,
mach number, angle of attack, and flap deflection that would be needed for direct use
of the results. Consequently, these data were used mainly to countercheck flight test
data and complement deficiencies in the latter.
4.2.2 FLIGHT PRESSURE TESTS
Nine flight pressure tests were run on the JT9D-7 engine, four with the blow-in-door
(BID) inlet and five with the fixed lip inlet. Pressure distributions on cowls and inlets
were measured over a wide range of flight conditions by means of pressure taps (up to
200 on the nacelle and strut).
This was the main source of pressure data to introduce into the NASTRAN model. In
fact, whenever it was not possible to match exactly the desired combination of Mach
number and lift coefficient, loads were inferred from the closest available flight test
conditions.
Unfortunately the most heavily instrumented flight tests were run with the BID con
figuration and no pressure taps inside the inlet, while the fixed lip configuration had
taps at only two circumferential stations.
Flight flutter test programs were run in which vertical and lateral accelerations were measured
at the inlet lip. Only limited information on inertia loads may be obtainable from these tests
since it may not be possible to deduce the nacelle's C.G. acceleration and pitch and yaw
rates. Furthermore, turbulence conditions were intentionally avoided in these tests, so that
the nacelle accelerations may not be typical of in-service experience.
Two types of flight loads surveys were run, one for maneuver loads and one for gust loads.
Again, the instrumentation may not be sufficient for a complete description of nacelle inertia
loads.
The theoretical methods described here are of relatively recent origin and were-not practical
for use during 747/JT9D development. Thus none of these methods have been applied to the
JT9D nacelle, but it is deemed appropriate to discuss them for completeness.
For three-dimensional subsonic flow the Rubbert-Saaris (ref.1) sources and vortex singulari
ties method has been used very successfully on other configurations. This method provides
exact solutions of the compressible flow equation without any linearization of the boundary
conditions. Compressibility effects are accounted for approximately by the Gothert rule.
Very detailed pressure distributions on nacelles, pylons, and inside the inlets have been
calculated (using as many as 1800 singularities) and found in excellent agreement with ex
perimental values.
5
Transonic Potential Flow
For transonic flow a mthod has been developed which solves the potential flow equations by
finite differences. Good results have been obtained for axisymmetric inlets at incidence.
Unsteady Flow
Unsteady pressure distributions can be predicted by a doublet lattice method, provided the
configuration is sufficiently slender to allow linearization of the boundary conditions.
The status of JT9D loads is discussed in the context of Task IIIA efforts which have been
carried out to date. In that effort, flight loads were evaluated at 14 points of a typical accep
tance flight test mission profile for production 747's. (figure 1). Gust intensities and
maneuver load factors were taken from the BCAC Fatigue Manual. (See ref.2)
In the Task IIIA effort, aerodynamic loads were obtained by running an aeroelastic solution
for the Mach number, altitude, gust intensity and maneuver load factor pertaining to each
analysis point of the mission profile. The airplane centerline so obtained, as well as the Mach
number, were matched as closely as possible with an actual flight test condition to obtain
aerodynamic pressure distributions on inlet and core cowl.
A total of 12 axially-positioned pressure taps were installed. Since only two circumferential
stations (150 and 1800) were instrumented on the fixed lip inlet, the intermediate pressures
were calulated by fitting a distribution law of the type, p(O) A + B COS (e+Y), to the
experimental data at each axial pressure station.
The phase angle 0, which remains indeterminate, was choosen equal to 300 on the basis of a
large number of test correlations. This is illustrated in figure 2 which shows that the phase
angle is somewhere between 150 and 350, and in figure 3 which shows that calculated ratios
of vertical load to side load agree best with wind tunnel tests when a 300 angle to outboard
is selected (black symbols). Aerodynamic forces on the core cowl turned out to be small
compared with inlet forces.
In summary, it is felt that an adequate representation has been obtained of the effects of
steady state aerodynamic loads as well as the statically equivalent effect at sharp edge gusts.
In the Task IIIA efforts vertical inertia load factors at the airplane C.G. were obtained from
am aeroelastic solution and multiplied by a dynamic magnification factor to obtain nacelle
loads. The result is almost certainly conservative because in the aeroelastic solution, gusts and
maneuver loads were assumed to occur simltaneously, which is not usually the case.
6
Lateral inertia load factors on the nacelles were obtained from a fatigue analysis. These
inertia load factors are more likely to represent peak envelope loads than actual operating
loads. The uncertainties arise from the lack of knowledge of the true dynamic response of
the airplane nacelle structural assembly.
Landing impact factors were obtained from flight test data and are considered adequate.
In summary, the transient motion of the nacelle is coupled to the motion of the airframe
and cannot be treated as an isolated system for dynamic purposes. A large number of nacelle.
lineal acceleration measurements are known to exist. Whether these can be made applicable o
the engine diagnostic study is unknowi at this time. Nacelle pitch and yaw rate measurements
apparently do not exist. Design values have been estimated in the past by extrapolation
from airplane C.G. measurements.

This part of the study is to determine the requirements and means for acquiring propulsion
system flight inertia loads data on one inboard and one outboard 747/JT9D propulsion
system. The study also will determine separately the means for acquiring-engine performance
data simultaneously with the propulsion system loads and to define the instrumentation
and data recording requirements.
Originally the flight test was intended to monitor the loads simultaneously with per
formance data of a new engine during flight acceptance testing and initial in-service flights,
thus providing correlation of deterioration with events in flight. This plan was essentially
precluded by the PICS program which, during initial flights, monitored performance data
of new engines which were then removed for teardown inspection. The primary need now is
to determine the magnitude of acceleration and angular velocities of the propulsion system
during initial flights. The option of measuring engine performance data in addition to loads
is still included, as well as the option of an in-service airplane or the Boeing 747 test airplane
RA001.
This section will describe the instrumentation selection, the two test vehicle options, data
reduction, as well as a comparison of technical requirements, costs, and schedules, for the
two options.
The estimated requirement for measurement accuracy in the range of 1 to 2% of full scale
dictated the use of highly accurate linear accelerometers on the powerplant. To obtain
angular as well as linear accelerations at the powerplant center-of-gravity, a system of
equations based on rigid body motion was derived. This derivation is presented in
Appendix A. The installation locations were then determined based on these equations and
other requirements such as operating environment, accessibility, and structural rigidity.
Most flight test experience with accelerometers designed for D. C. to low frequency response
in the past 10 years has been with servo-type accelerometers in temperature environments
not exceeding 185' F. A new, highly accurate servo accelerometer, the Sunstrand Mini-pal
Model 2180, (figure 4) is now available in rangesto ± 150 g's for operation in environments
up to 160' F. It was decided that this instrument would be the primary sensor if a low
temperature location could be found for installation.

Pratt and Whitney engine case temperature data (figure 5) was then reviewed to determine
instrumentation locations that were below 1600 F. To be conservative, the worst case of
120' F takeoff at sea level with 8th stage bleed was selected, during which the only area
cooler than 1600 F is forward of Nacelle Station 100, the "A" flange defined in figure 5.
To solve the equations for all e.g. acceleration components, at least six accelerometers had
to be installed in this area.
Figure 6 shows the selected locations for primary instrumentation which are identified
in table -1.These include a vertical and lateral accelerometer on the Hi-lite at NS 40 and
two vertical, one lateral and one longitudinal accelerometers, on the "A" flange at NS 100.
All of these accelerometers will be ± 50 g models to preclude loss of data due to high g
levels at frequencies out of the range of interest. Additionally, these unwanted frequencies
(above 20 Hz) will be removed from the transducer output before digitization through the
use of 4-pole Butterworth low-pass filters. To measure engine angular rates in pitch and yaw,
a Northrup 3-axis D.C. gyro (figure 7) will be installed at the 3 o'clock position (looking aft)
of NS 100. This gyro has' been used extensively on flight test programs in the past seven to
eight years and is highly reliable.
To.obtain airplane airspeed, altitude, and Mach number the co-pilots' total and static pressure
will be recorded along with airplane total temperature. The six components of acceleration
at the airplane c.g.-will also be recorded. Other engine parameters to be instrumented include
low pressure rotor RPM (NI) and engine pressure ratio (PT7/PT1) on both instrumented
engines. The airplane basic measured parameters are listed in table 3 and are further
identified with all other transducers in Appendix B.

5.2 TEST VEHICLE OPTIONS
Originally, the feasibility study was limited to an in-service, passenger aircraft. The intent was
to monitor inertia loads and performance of a new engine over the first few decade hours of
flight and correlate performance deterioration with flight events, tear-down inspection
results, test stand X-ray measurement and structural analysis results. As the scope narrowed
to obtaining only inertia loads data, the requirement for a new engine no longer existed.
Consequently, the test vehicle selection was widened to possibly include either a freighter
with JT9D's or the Boeing-owned prototype 747, RAOOI. As far as the Flight Test program
was concerned, there would be no difference if either a freighter or passenger airplane was
chosen as the in-service vehicle and hereafter they will both be referred to as the "in-service"
airplane.
The in-service airplane program would cover a period of three months during which 50 hours
of data would be collected. The 64 channels of basic instrumentation would be installed
during the factory cycle and recorded on a tape recorder mounted in the forward electronics
bay. The data acquisition system, outlined in figure 10, would include signal conditioning
for the 64 channels, and IRIG time display, a bit synch decommutator for maintenance
monitoring and checkout, and a Bell and Howell M-14E tape recorder activated from the
flight deck by the flight engineer. This system will provide four hours of continuous record
ing capability, but would only be activated by the crew during takeoff, climb, and a few
minutes of cruise, turbulence encounters, approach and landing. Due to the widely dispersed
destinations during an average week's flying (see figure 11) flight test personnel would be
stationed at key points along the route to maintain the data system, remove the data system,
remove the tapes, and send them to Seattle for reduction.
The RAOO 1 test program would be conducted from Boeing Field, Seattle, over a period of
3 months. During this time, 30 hours of data would be collected on the high speed PCM
data system and monitored via the Airborne Data Acquisition and Monitor System (ADAMS),
(figures 12 and 13).

The high speed pulse code modulation (HSPCM) acquisition system is a programmable,
digital system consisting of remote multiplexer/demultiplexer units (RMDLs), a distri
bution assembly, and a tape recorder. Each data value is contained in a 10 bit word with a
resolution of one count in 1023. The data system is operated at 128,000 bits per second
and can handle individual sampling rates, depending on the number of measurements re
quired, up to 800 samples per second. At the tape speed of 7 inches per second, the Bell
and Howell M-I4E tape recorder can record continously for four hours with a 9200-foot
tape. The tape can be changed inflight to allow, essentially, non-stop recording from take
off through landing.
The RAOO I airplane has reconditioned JT9D-7A's installed at all four positions. These
engines have fan pressure rakes and primary nozzle rakes installed along with other temper
ature, position, and rate transducers, and were calibrated for thrust measurement at the
Boeing Tulalip Test Facility. A list of pertinent engine performance parameters available on
RAOI are in table 4. The parameters listed in table 5 can be derived from these, using the
in-flight computer system.

27
A test plan was developed for RAOOI that would contain all maneuvers encountered in
* turbulence encounters
* avoidance maneuvers
* landing impact and roll-out
All data reduction will be accomplished by the Flight Test Dta Group (Organization B-7955)
at Seattle, Washington. The data reduction facility is shown in the photograph of figure 15.
As shown in the data flow schematic, figure 16, the flight tapes will be processed in the
ground station to change the digital data bitstream to an engineering units format and then
passed on to the IBM 360 computer for processing through advanced procedures. Output
from the system can be in the form of plots, tabulated data or an output media tape that
can be used by Boeing Technology Staff organization on their PDP 11 computers.
The original cost study presented to NASA-LEWIS on August 23, 1977 did not include 8
channels of strain gages and thermocouples proposed by Pratt and Whitney to measure
case bending loads or 5 acceleration channels.
Discussion following this meeting revealed a desire on the part of Pratt and Whitney to have
cost and schedule figures for several other RAOI program options including:
" the basic instrumentation package obtained during 10 dedicated flight hours and 20
concurrent hours.
* the basic instrumentation package + 22 engine performance parameters obtained on a
10 dedicated/20 concurrent flight hour basis.
* the basic instrumentation package obtained during 30 hours of dedicated testing.
* the basic instrumentation package + the engine performance package obtained during 30
dedicated hours.
A chart presenting these revised RA0O I cost and schedule options as well as the basic pack
age for an in-service airplane is presented in the Cost Summary of Section 7.0 Appendix
D gives the overall program schedule.

Although an in-service test vehicle would probably incur the most realistic flight schedule
and would contain a random sampling of different pilot techniques, it is felt there would be
too many inherent drawbacks. In addition to higher program costs, the production cycle
would have to be interrupted to install the instrumentation, the flight data-would -be
gathered during an inflexible flight profile, and data system maintenance would have to be
interfaced with the host airline's operation schedule.
Using a test vehicle with a complete acquisition and monitor system aboard eliminates
wasted flight time due to faulty instrumentation. Also, the ability to fly a compressed test
profile consisting only of pertinent maneuvers will greatly reduce the toal flow time of the
test program. A minor drawback would be that if the program option of 10 dedicated and
20 concurrent flight hours is selected, it may take from one day to six months (a complete
unknown at this time) to gather the concurrent data. Based on these factors, Boeing con
cludes that RAOO 1 is the logical test vehicle for the program.

6.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION OF FEASIBILITY
1. Experience
2. Accuracy
3. Reliability of measuring system
4. Completeness of data
5. Use of and requirement for flight test data
6.1 EXPERIENCE
Low frequency accelerations have been successfully measured on the nacelle cold sections
in numerous flight flutter tests. Since 1966, over 300 hours of testing has been conducted on
the 737, 747, AWACS, YC-14 and 747SP airplanes. Generally, the acceleration measurements
involved one vertical accelerometer at the three o'clock position looking aft and one lateral
accelerometer mounted at the six o'clock position, both attached to the inlet near the hi-lite
plane. The typical flutter test procedure is to suddenly actuate an aileron, inducing a step
load on the wing, and then observe the accelerometer response to ensure that proper damping
exists for stable motion.
It should finally be noted that hot-section, higher frequency range acceleration measure
ments have been carried out successfully during 100 hours of testing on three major
airplane systems. These tests employed piezo-electric type sensors, good for 20 to
2500 Hz.
6.2 ACCURACY
The accuracy of determining nacelle rigid body accelerations and angular velocities about
the center of gravity hinges on:
33
The rigid body assumption is known to be correct below 10 Hz, based on existing
analytical and test experience. Higher frequency elastic components can be eliminated if
necessary by data filtering; so, in a sense, one can enforce this assumption by simply
choosing the frequency level of the filter. One should be able to identify the transition from
rigid to elastic behavior by measuring over a range of 0 to 15 H2. The ldwest-known elastic
mode (fan case/inlet rocking with respect to the engine core) is around 12 Hz. The indica
tion of transition from rigid to elastic behavior will occur when calculated c.g. accelerations,
using different sets of the redundant accelration measurements, no longer coincide.
The inherent accuracy of the sensors and data recording system is well established for low
temperature measurements. The probable error is less than 2%. This also applies to the rate
gyros which are located in the cold section. As stated earlier, Boeing laboratory tests will
verify the accuracy of the high temperature sensors in the,flight environment. Manufacturers'
specifications indicate more than addquate capability.
The Kaman 1901 sensors have already been tested in the Boeing laboratory under a
noise environment of 150 decibels at 40 to 11,000 Hz. The zero shift and slope
(sensitivity) was negligible. A tentative 70% reliability is estimated. The redundant sensors
will further enhance the overall reliability of obtaining valid c.g. data and should provide
near 95% reliability on an overall basis.
The rate gyro reliability has been well established for airplane c.g. measurements;
approximately 90% reliability. Similar reliability is expected in the engine cold section.
Completeness of data revolves around the question, "Will sufficient loads data be acquired
to determine the effect of the flight environment on short term deterioration?" There
are three facets to this question:
1. Are rigid body inertias sufficient to characterize the dynamic behavior of the propulsion
2. Are the other flight-induced loads data (aerodynamic) which already exist, sufficient in
breadth and depth?
3. Are the proposed number of flight hours adequate to characterize short-term inertia
loads?
34
6.4.1 SUFFICIENCY OF RIGID BODY INERTIAS
The lowest flexible propulsion system vibratory mode is about 12 Hz which is a rocking
motion of the fan case/inlet structure relative to the engine core in a vertical plane. This
mode could be significant in causing fan rub strip loss. This mode should be discernible in
the flight test data and, coupled with the dynamic analysis of Task -IIA, should be quantified
sufficiently to determine its impact on fan rub strip loss.
Any additional effects of dynamic flight loads on engine clearances involving flexible modes
will be considered in the Task IIIA analytical dynamics work. It~is assumed also that rotor
unbalance induced dynamic behavior will be treated sufficiently in Task IIIA.
Another question relates to how the measured pitch and yaw angular velocities would be
utilized in calculating gyroscopic moments to be applied to the rotors. Current practice
idealizes the airplane as going through steady state angular motion from which the gyro
scopic moment can be simply calculated. This is the basis for the gyro moment loads input
to the NASTRAN model so far. Neither the twist of the wing nor the lateral elastic deflection
and yaw twist of the strut are taken into account other than perhaps estimating upper bound
design loads. This area will be given rigorous and detailed treatment in the dynamics analysis
of Task IliA to complement and help understand and utilize the measured flight test data.
It is known that the gyro stiffening effects of the rotors do not effect airplane flutter
speeds. What the impact is on engine clearances and deterioration is not yet understood.
.Based on the extensive collection and review of existing nacelle pressure data in Task liA,
it is believed that aerodynamic loads are sufficiently characterized for purposes of engine
diagnostics. The only exception to this might be unsteady air loads of which very little is
known in regard to transient pressure distributions, primarily because appropriate instru
mentation does not exist. It is believed that the' primary effect of unsteady air loads is seen
in the nacelle accelerations, and that pressures per se are not needed.
Since the primary source of nacelle inertia loads is air turbulence, the expected frequency of
occurrence and magnitude of turbulence can be used to estimate the flight time required.
This would come from airplane gust exceedance data. No absolute index is available since
the relation between gust velocity and nacelle acceleration level in unknown.
Typical 747 fleet gust experience provides the following data for typical three hour flight
missions:
Gust velocity
Flights exceeded, ft/sec
1 15
10 22
100 31
3000 49
35
The probability of one airplane encountering a 15 ft/sec gust at least once per flight is .63.
A specific in-service airplane flying three months will accumulate about 270 flights, based on
nine hours per day usage and a three-hour flight duration. The probability of encountering a
15 ft/sec gust at least once during these 270 flights is approximately 1,i.e., 1-e-2 7 0 - 1. On
the other hand, the probability of encountering a gust in excess of 31 ft/sec during the 270
flights is only .013. Consequently, it can be stated, with a very high level of confidence, that
gust intensities experienced in such a test program will lie in the 15 to 31 ft/sec band.
Measured accelerations in excess of two g's in one instrumented in-service airplane flying
270 flights may be rare. However, the measurements below two g's will provide adequate
data for conducting short term (less than 100 hours) exceedance curves which can be
extended to longer flight times by mathematical extrapolation and existing knowledge of
gust load exceedance curves and g levels.
The RAOOI test airplane will be flown to deliberately seek out turbulence during the
dedicated flight time-of ten hours. The 20 hours non-dedicated time will probably involve
maneuvers and could alsoMc ude deliberate search for turbulence. Thus, the flight hours
for the RA0O 1 is considered adequate to obtain representative, short-term inertia loads data.
This section discusses how the flight inertia loads data would be used and the need for it in
evaulating TSFC deterioration.
Figure 17 illustrates the form of the reduced acceleration data and its applications in current
and future propulsion systems.
From the acceleration time history, the power spectral density of acceleration would be
derived which would provide the frequency characteristics of the acceleration and help
to identify fundamental vibration modes. The power spectral density of measured accelera
tion a(t) is:
where T is the time interval over which a(t) has been observed.
Peak acceleration values are used directly in the NASTRAN static model as inertia load
factors. The pitch and yaw rates are substituted into the equation of motion for a rigid
rotor spinning in a rigid housing which is undergoing the motion described by the measured
test data. This would then provide the gyroscopic moments which would be applied to the
NASTRAN static model (non-rigid system) to calculate clearance changes. Figure 18 is an
example of the change of clearance output data from the NASTRAN analysis. The equations
to -be used for calculating gyroscopic moments are as follows:

Finally, the measured acceleration and angular velocities would be used in helping to
understand and calibrate the dynamic analyses being conducted under Task liA.
In addition to the current engine diagnostics study, the flight inertia loads data could be
important in future engine designs where close clearance control becomes extremely
critical, particularly in the E3 , 1985-90 generation of engines currently under study by
NASA. More rational design criteria for the E3 engines, for integrated engine nacelle
designs, and new airplane designs could be formulated by expanding the knowledge of
the in-service nacelle inertia loads.
The previous section assumed that inertia loads make a significant contribution to engine
TSFC deterioration. The question under consideration here is whether the inertia loads
do in fact contribute significantly to TSFC deterioration of the JT9D and how the extent
to which they contribute might be determined, thus helping evaluate the need for con
ducting a 747/JT9D flight test.
The NASTRAN tool provides a practical and accurate method of evaluating the effect
of different loads on engine clearance changes. The real problem, however, is to determine
what are accurate magnitudes of nacelle accelerations and gyroscopic forces. Based on
preliminary results of Task IIIA, a comparison of clearance changes due to different loads
was made as shown in figure 19. The loads are once-per-flight type loads for the standard
production acceptance flight test profile. The lineal accelerations are believed to be con
servative. They appear to have minimal impact on clearance change. The pitch and yaw
velocities may not be conservative. They have significant impact on clearance change.
The ultimate design values for acceleration and angular velocities are:
39
C
Preliminary Data
In summary, the requirement for flight inertia loads depends on their relative impact on
deterioration. One approach to determining this, as an alternative to a flight test, would
be to review existing inertia loads data and try to establish more reliable estimates of
operating loads, and then calculate the relative effect on clearance change via the NASTRAN
model.

8.0 CONCLUSIONS
The conclusions will be discussed under the headings of "feasibility" and "desirability".
Under feasibility the conclusions are:
1. Nacelle aerodynamic loads are satisfactorily defined for purposes of JT9D Engine
Diagnostics.
2. It is technically feasible to measure flight inertia loads on both an in-service airplane and
on the Boeing-owned RA001 airplane.
3. The Boeing-owned airplane has technical and economic advantages which make it the
appropriate choice for obtaining inertia loads data.
1. The existence of a large amount of flight flutter and flight loads survey test data has
become evident during the course of this feasibility study. Its applicability to JT9D
43
9.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A decision on a flight test program be postponed until the following tasks are completed.
b. Compare structural analyses and TSFC estimates (Task IIIA) with analytical teardown
and engine calibrations of engine 695743 (Tasks II and IIIA).
c. Conduct an intensive review of existing inertia loads data from flight flutter and flight
loads survey tests which have been conducted by Boeing in conjunction with 747
development.
b. Additional data are required after an intensive review of existing inertia loads data.
3. If and when the flight test program is carried out, the Boeing test airplane RAOO 1, be
used as the test vehicle.
