Aerodynamic 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 کاملAerodynamic Performance Enhancement of a NACA 66-206 Airfoil Using Supersonic Channel Airfoil Design
Supersonic channel airfoil design techniques have been shown to significantly reduce drag in high-speed flows over diamond shaped airfoils by Ruffin and colleagues. The effect of applying these techniques to a NACA 66-206 airfoil is presented. The design domain entails channel heights of 8-16.6% thickness-to-chord and speeds from Mach 1.5-3.0. Numerical simulations show an increase in the lift-...
متن کاملAn Experimental Investigation on Aerodynamic Hysteresis of a Low-Reynolds Number Airfoil
An experimental study was conducted to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of a NASA low speed GA(W)-1 airfoil at the chord Reynolds number of ReC=160,000. Aerodynamic hysteresis was observed for the angles of attack close to the static stall angle of the airfoil. In addition to mapping surface pressure distribution around the airfoil, a high-resolution PIV system was used to make detai...
متن کاملAerodynamic Optimization of an Airfoil Using Gradient Based Method
Abstract. A gradient based method is presented for optimization of an airfoil configuration. The flow is governed by two dimensional, compressible Euler equations. A finite volume code based on unstructured grid is developed to solve the equations. The procedure is carried out for optimizing an airfoil with initial configuration of NACA 0012. The advantage of this technique over the other gradi...
متن کاملComputational Analysis of the 2415-3S Airfoil Aerodynamic Performance
This paper deals with the numerical simulation of the twodimensional, incompressible, steady air flow past an airfoil for a solar powered unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with internal propulsion system. This airfoil results from a NACA 2415 four digits family base airfoil modification [7] and has a propulsive outlet with the shape of a step on the suction surface. The analysis involved the airfoi...
