Wind Tunnel Tests of the Counter-Rotating Propeller of Stratospheric Airship
In this paper, a design of counter-rotating propeller (CRP) for stratospheric airship in low Reynolds number is tested in experiment for the first time. In consideration of stratosphere environment, a two-bladed counter-rotating propeller is designed for stratospheric airship. With the similarity theory of Reynolds number and advanced ratio, the experiment is conducted in low Reynolds number wi...
متن کاملWind tunnel tests of a free yawing downwind wind turbine
This research paper presents preliminary results on a behavioural study of a free yawing downwind wind turbine. A series of wind tunnel tests was performed at the TU Delft Open Jet Facility with a three bladed downwind wind turbine and a rotor radius of 0.8 meters. The setup includes an off the shelf three bladed hub, nacelle and generator on which relatively flexible blades are mounted. The to...
متن کاملSupersonic Wind - Tunnel Flutter Tests of Two Rectangular Wings
Two rectangular wings of aspect ratio 4 were flutter tested in a supersonic wind tunnel at Mach numbers 1·6 and 2·0 using a technique in which a structural stiffness was varied to give flutter at the Mach number. The results are in reasonable agreement with calculations using theoretical three-dimensional derivatives and arbitrary wing modes, though in general the calculated critical stiffnesse...
متن کاملCFD for Better Understanding of Wind Tunnel Tests
CFD requires validation for complicated flow problems involving complex physics such as turbulence. Wind tunnels are still the most commonly used validation tools for CFD including physical modelling although some limited use of reliable DNS data base for simple geometries is recently becoming possible. One can observe the trend that a higher and higher demand on the accuracy of the wind tunnel...
متن کاملWind Tunnel Tests of a Shrouded Aircraft Inlet
We describe tests of a shrouded aerosol inlet for a high-altitude jet aircraft. Both the lip of the inlet and the shroud are NACA (National Committee for Aeronautics, now known as NASA, or National Aeronautics and Space Administration) airfoils. Wind tunnel tests show a smooth growth of the boundary layer in the inlet, with an undisturbed core more than I m back from the entrance. The shroud ma...
