Transonic shockwave/boundary layer interactions on NACA 5 series -24112

Boundary Layer Adaptivity for Transonic Turbulent Flows

Simulations of turbulent flows are challenging and require tight and varying mesh spacings near the walls that depend on the turbulence models used. Semi-structured meshes are often used in the turbulent wall boundary layers due to their ability to be strongly graded and anisotropic. To reduce the discretization errors in the solution, an adaptive approach becomes essential due to the lack of g...

Investigation of NACA 0012 Airfoil Periodic Flows in a Transonic Wind Tunnel

An experimental study of static and dynamic pressure distributions over a NACA 0012 airfoil in the two-dimensional test section 0.8 × 0.4-meter of a transonic wind tunnel is presented. Tests are conducted at freestream Mach numbers from 0.35 to 0.89, and angle of attack between −2.0 and 15, and Reynolds number based on the airfoil chord length of 3.0 million. Tests are performed at boundary-lay...

Airfoil-Gust Interactions in Transonic Flow

Leading edge noise is a significant broadband noise source in aircraft engines, and is the primary broadband noise mechanism in outlet guide vane noise in turbofans, and broadband rotor wake interaction noise in contra-rotating open rotor engines. Previous authors have studied the effects of various aspects relating to this noise source, including airfoil geometry effects, cascade effects, and ...

Role of Upstream Boundary Layer Velocity Fluctuations on Unsteadiness of Mach 5 Blunt-Fin Interactions

I-5: Molcular and Cellular Interactions in UterineReceptivity for Implantation

Background: Though plausible candidate adhesion systems have been identified, current knowledge of embryo-maternal attachment in human is limited by the inability to conduct well-controlled functional investigations. We have sought a viable medium-throughput model for the identification and functional assessment of molecular markers in the initial epithelial phases of implantation. An ideal mod...
