Much experimental work has been done about canard-wing configurationsin the last quarter century. But canard-wing configuration computations wereconsidered only in a few papers [10, 12], and were limited to steady flow. In computations,the convergence speed of the free vortex position decreases,and the computational time increases exponentially with increasing number ofthe divided elements. For unsteady flow, there are more segments on the freevortex sheet; so, the computational time becomes even much larger, and theconvergence becomes slower. The present paper is believed to be a goodbeginning to remedy the situation. In this paper, a simplified method is presented to calculate the steady, orunsteady flow around the canard-wing configurations. An improved unsteadyNonlinear Vortex Lattice Method is used to simulate the wing, and the canardand its free vortex sheet are modelled with an equivalent concentrated vortex.In present method, the position of the equivalent concentrated vortex in theflow field is determined simultaneously with the position of the free vortexsheet shed from the wing, In computation, the needed initial point of theposition of the equivalent concentrated vortex is selected quite nicely andeasily with a rule suggested in this paper. Through numerical examples, it isshown that effect of interference, improving or aggravating the aerodynamicloads on the wing, depends on the span station of the canard concentratedvortex to a great extent. The aerodynamic loads for the canard-wing configura-tions calculated by the present method agree well with the experiments orother more complicated methods. The idea of introducing an equivalentconcentrated vortex is believed to be the principal contribution of this paper. It is believed that this idea will find application in many problems inaerodynamics which involve interference.
