Plunging Airfoil Load Characteristics Equipped with Gurney Flap
Numerous experiments have been conducted on plunging Eppler 361 airfoil in a subsonic wind tunnel. The experimental tests involved measuring the surface pressure distribution over the airfoil at Re=1.5×105. The airfoil was equipped with Gurney flap(heights of 2.6, 3.3 and 5% chord) and plunged at 6cm amplitude. The unsteady aerodynamic loads were calculated from the surface pressure measurement...
متن کاملComputational Investigations on the Effects of Gurney Flap on Airfoil Aerodynamics
The present study comprises steady state, two-dimensional computational investigations performed on NACA 0012 airfoil to analyze the effect of Gurney flap (GF) on airfoil aerodynamics using k-ε RNG turbulence model of FLUENT. Airfoil with GF is analyzed for six different heights from 0.5% to 4% of the chord length, seven positions from 0% to 20% of the chord length from the trailing edge, and s...
متن کاملEffect of a Gurney Flap on the Lift of an Airfoil
The problem investigated in this experiment was which height of Gurney Flap gives the best lift improvement on an airfoil without increasing drag. The Gurney Flaps' heights are determined as a percentage of the airfoil's chord length. The hypothesis is that a Gurney Flap will produce the best lift to drag ratio when its height is two percent of the airfoil's chord length. The hypothesis was tes...
متن کاملOn Numerical Simulation of Airfoil Vibrations Induced by Compressible Flow∗
The subject of the paper is the numerical simulation of the interaction of twodimensional compressible viscous flow and a vibrating airfoil. The airfoil is considered as a solid body with two degrees of freedom, moving in the vertical direction and rotating around an elastic axis. The numerical simulation consists of the solution of the Navier-Stokes system by the space discontinuous Galerkin m...
متن کاملHigh fidelity numerical simulation of airfoil thickness and kinematics effects on flapping airfoil propulsion
High-fidelity numerical simulations with the spectral difference (SD) method are carried out to investigate the unsteady flow over a series of oscillating NACA 4-digit airfoils. Airfoil thickness and kinematics effects on the flapping airfoil propulsion are highlighted. It is confirmed that the aerodynamic performance of airfoils with different thickness can be very different under the same kin...
