Aerodynamic Shape Optimization of an Adaptive Morphing Trailing Edge Wing
Adaptive morphing trailing edge wings have the potential to reduce the fuel burn of transport aircraft. In this paper, we quantify the aerodynamic performance benefits of a morphing trailing using aerodynamic design optimization. The aerodynamic model solves the Reynolds-averaged Navier– Stokes equations with a Spalart–Allmaras turbulence model. A gradient-based optimization algorithm is used i...
متن کاملEffects of Leading Edge Defect on the Aerodynamic and Flow Characteristics of an S809 Airfoil
BACKGROUND Unexpected performance degradation occurs in wind turbine blades due to leading edge defect when suffering from continuous impacts with rain drops, hails, insects, or solid particles during its operation life. To assess this issue, this paper numerically investigates the steady and dynamic stall characteristics of an S809 airfoil with various leading edge defects. More leading edge d...
متن کاملQuad Tilt Wing VTOL UAV: Aerodynamic Characteristics and Prototype Flight
A QTW VTOL UAV, featured tandem tilt wings and propellers mounted at the mid-span of each wing, is one of the most promising UAV configurations having both a VTOL capability and high cruise performance. A small prototype QTW UAV has been constructed to prove the concept and full transition between vertical and horizontal flight has been successfully demonstrated under remote manual control. The...
متن کاملAerodynamic characteristics of dragonfly wing sections compared with technical aerofoils.
During gliding, dragonfly wings can be interpreted as acting as ultra-light aerofoils which, for static reasons, have a well-defined cross-sectional corrugation. This corrugation forms profile valleys in which rotating vortices develop. The cross-sectional configuration varies greatly along the longitudinal axis of the wing. This produces different local aerodynamic characteristics. Analyses of...
متن کاملReceptivity to surface roughness near a swept leading edge
The formation of stationary crossflow vortices in a three-dimensional boundary layer due to surface roughness located near the leading edge of a swept wing is investigated using numerical solutions of the compressible Navier–Stokes equations. The numerical solutions are used to evaluate the accuracy of theoretical receptivity predictions which are based on the parallel-flow approximation. By re...
