LaminarFlowSeparation andTransition on a Low-Reynolds-Number Airfoil
A NUMBER of military and civilian applications require efficient operation of airfoils in low chord Reynolds numbers. The applications include propellers, sailplanes, ultralight mancarrying/man-powered aircraft, high-altitude vehicles, wind turbines, unmanned aerial vehicles, and micro air vehicles. Careful management of boundary layers on low-Reynolds-number airfoils is required to alleviate t...
متن کاملAerodynamics 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 کاملAerodynamic Hysteresis of a Low- Reynolds-Number Airfoil
L OW-REYNOLDS-NUMBER airfoil aerodynamics is important for bothmilitary and civilian applications. The applications include propellers, sailplanes, ultralight man-carrying/man-powered aircraft, high-altitude vehicles, wind turbines, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and micro air vehicles (MAVs). For the applications just listed, the combination of small length scale and low flight velocities re...
متن کاملLow Reynolds Number Airfoil Optimization Using Genetic Algorithm
The optimization of a low Reynolds number airfoil for use in small wind turbines is carried out using Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization. With the aim of creating a roughness insensitive airfoil for the tip region of turbine blades, a multi-objective genetic algorithm code is developed. A review of existing parameterization and optimization methods are presented along with the strategies appli...
متن کاملControl of Karman Vortex Street behind a Thin Airfoil at Low Reynolds Number
To control the Karman vortex street formed behind a thin airfoil at a certain incidence, a control cylinder was placed at the suction side apart from the airfoil in the downstream region. Both smoke visualization and hot-wire measurements confirmed that the Karman vortex street was completely suppressed. The mechanism for suppression of the vortex street was examined with a hot-wire survey.
