Abstract With the purpose of investigating effects geometry parameters CFJ (Coflow jet) device on aerodynamic characteristics supercritical bacj airfoil used by a STOL transport, we have carried out computational analysis with different values injection slot size and location under low-speed condition. The results show that lift coefficient decreases gradually decreasing stall angle, when is in...

Laboratory experiments and numerical simulation reveal that a submerged intruder dragged horizontally at a constant velocity within a granular medium experiences a lift force whose sign and magnitude depend on the intruder shape. Comparing the stress on a flat plate at varied inclination angle with the local surface stress on the intruders at regions with the same orientation demonstrates that ...

The adjoint-based sensitivity analyses well explored in hydrodynamic stability studies are extended to calculate the sensitivity of forces acting on an aerofoil with respect to wall transpiration. The magnitude of the sensitivity quantifies the controllability of the force, and the distribution of the sensitivity represents a most effective control when the control magnitude is small enough. Si...

flow structure and heat transfer characteristics around two-equal in-tandem square cylinders in the two dimensional laminar and turbulent flow regimes are simulated numerically for reynolds and prandtl numbers, re=1-1×10 5 , pr=0.71, respectively. the investigation is based on an implicit finite volume scheme for integrating the unsteady navier-stokes equations and use of standard κ-ε model to ...

In this paper, lift and drag coefficients were numerically investigated using NUMECA software in a set of 4-digit NACA airfoils. Two metamodels based on the evolved group method of data handling (GMDH) type neural networks were then obtained for modeling both lift coefficient (CL) and drag coefficient (CD) with respect to the geometrical design parameters. After using such obtained polynomial n...

This paper presents a method of transforming aerodynamic datasets generated in Aerodynamic Preliminary Analysis System (APAS) into parametric equations which may subsequently be used in a multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) environment for analyzing aerospace vehicles. APAS is an analysis code which allows the user to create a simple geometric model of a vehicle and then calculate the a...

Abstract A novel patented ducted winglet design is compared, using numerical simulations, to an unmodified wing tip and a standard in the context of wind turbine blade. The aim reduce induced drag. This reduction drag, at tip, would be particularly beneficial performance. Throughout comparison, we explore aerodynamic phenomena described patent which claim explain how reduces simulations were ru...

Gliding flight performance and wake topology of a common swift (Apus apus L.) were examined in a wind tunnel at speeds between 7 and 11 m s(-1). The tunnel was tilted to simulate descending flight at different sink speeds. The swift varied its wingspan, wing area and tail span over the speed range. Wingspan decreased linearly with speed, whereas tail span decreased in a nonlinear manner. For ea...
