numerical simulation of turbulent flow around an airfoil with blunt trailing edge aerodynamic characteristics modification of this airfoil with base and aerodynamic cavity

this paper is a computational study of the behavior of aerodynamics  characteristics of an airfoil with blunt trailing edge and  studies the effects aerodynamic performance caused by modifications made to the trailing edge. blunt trailing edge airfoils are of interest in the engineering of large wind turbine blades because they allow for a strong structure with a high aerodynamic lift to struct...

Numerical Study of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Plunging Rigid Airfoil with Elastic Trailing-Edge Plate

The fluid-structure coupling process of a plunging rigid airfoil with a thin elastic plate attached at the trailing-edge is simulated numerically by using unsteady potential flow source/vortex panel method and the Euler-Bernoulli beam vibration differential equation. The flow characteristics, the unsteady aerodynamic loads, especially the thrust effects of the plunging motion are computed. The ...

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...
