Aerodynamics of Low Reynolds Number Plunging Airfoil under Gusty Environment
Abstract It is known that plunging airfoil can produce both lift and thrust with certain combination of plunging amplitude and frequency. Motivated by our interest in micro air vehicles (MAVs), we utilize a NavierStokes equation solver to investigate the aerodynamics of a flapping airfoil. The roles of the plunging and pitching amplitude and frequency, and Strouhal number are studied. For a sym...
متن کاملAerodynamics an aerofoil in transonic ground effect : numerical study at full - scale Reynolds num rs
The potential positive effects of ground proximity on the aerodynamic performance of a \Ving or aerofoil have long been established, but at transonic speeds the fonnation of shock waves betvveen the body and the ground plane would have significant consequences. A numerical study of the aerodynamics of an lu\E2822 aerofoil section in ground eiiect flight was conducted at freestream Mach numbers ...
متن کاملEffects of Sideslip on the Aerodynamics of Low-Aspect-Ratio Low-Reynolds-Number Wings
The growing interest in micro aerial vehicles has brought attention to the need for an improved understanding of the aerodynamics of low-aspect-ratio wings at lowReynolds numbers. In this study, flat plate wings with rectangular and tapered planforms were fabricated with aspect ratios of 0.75, 1, 1.5, and 3, and the aerodynamic loading was measured at Reynolds numbers between 5 10 and 1 10. Sur...
متن کاملHigh Reynolds number oscillating contact lines
For the eventual use as regards wave generation and damping, we investigate oscillating contact lines on vertical walls. Stainless steel is used rather than the glass of Ting and Perlin [J. Fluid Mech. 295 (1995) 263] for the vertically sinusoidally oscillating plate over a large range of Reynolds numbers. The non-wetting stainless steel minimizes the static meniscus ignored in our analysis. Ot...
متن کاملLow-Reynolds-number swimming at pycnoclines.
Microorganisms play pivotal functions in the trophic dynamics and biogeochemistry of aquatic ecosystems. Their concentrations and activities often peak at localized hotspots, an important example of which are pycnoclines, where water density increases sharply with depth due to gradients in temperature or salinity. At pycnoclines organisms are exposed to different environmental conditions compar...
