Experimental Study on Flow Characteristics Around Twin Wind Blades (RESEARCH NOTE)
In the current study, twin wind blades are designed, fabricated and the effect of various gap ratio (g*) at various angle of attacks (α) on a next to each other twin wind blades are examined in an open-channel wind tunnel. Aerodynamic forces and moments are determined by using three-constraint force balancer. For gap ratio of zero, the aerodynamic attributes are like those of a solitary wind bl...
متن کاملAfrl-va-wp-tp-2003-301 Comparison of Predicted and Measured Formation Flight Interference Effects
Results from a wind tunnel test of two delta wings in close proximity are presented and compared with predictions from a vortex lattice method. The wake effects on lift are slightly overpredicted when the aircraft overlap in the spanwise direction. The wake induced effects on pitching and rolling moment are well predicted. A maximum induced drag reduction of 25% is measured on the trail aircraf...
متن کاملEffect of Amplitude and Mean Angle of Attack on the Unsteady Surface Pressure of a Pitching Airfoil
Details of pressure distributions, on a two dimensional airfoil oscillating in pitch through stall, in a 0.8 0.8 m low-speed wind tunnel are presented. Pitching occurred about the airfoils quarter-chord axis. Pitch rate, Reynolds number, and oscillation amplitudes were varied to determine the effects on pressure and lift distributions. It was found that mean angle of attack and pitching amplitu...
متن کاملPrediction of Aerodynamic Coefficients Using Neural Networks for Sparse Data
A reliable and fast method of predicting complex aerodynamic coefficients for flight simulation is presented using neural networks. The training data for the neural network is derived from numerical simulations and wind-tunnel experiments. The aerodynamic coefficients are modeled as functions of the flow characteristics and the control surfaces of the vehicle. The basic coefficients of lift, dr...
متن کاملComparison of different mass transport equations for wind erosion quantification purposes in southwest Iran: A wind tunnel study
The objective of this study was to assess the efficiency of three mathematical models (power, exponential and logarithmic functions) for the calculation of the horizontal mass transport (HMT), as compared to the linear spline interpolation for the Cyclone Dust Sampler (CDS) and one with a Cone (CDSC), modified Wilson and Cooke trap (MWAC) and big spring number eight (BSNE). For the purposes of t...
