Effect of a Gurney Flap on the Lift of an Airfoil

The problem investigated in this experiment was which height of Gurney Flap gives the best lift improvement on an airfoil without increasing drag. The Gurney Flaps' heights are determined as a percentage of the airfoil's chord length. The hypothesis is that a Gurney Flap will produce the best lift to drag ratio when its height is two percent of the airfoil's chord length. The hypothesis was tes...

Computational Investigations on the Effects of Gurney Flap on Airfoil Aerodynamics

The present study comprises steady state, two-dimensional computational investigations performed on NACA 0012 airfoil to analyze the effect of Gurney flap (GF) on airfoil aerodynamics using k-ε RNG turbulence model of FLUENT. Airfoil with GF is analyzed for six different heights from 0.5% to 4% of the chord length, seven positions from 0% to 20% of the chord length from the trailing edge, and s...

Evaluation of the Centre Manifold Method for Limit Cycle Calculations of a Nonlinear Structural Wing

In this study the centre manifold is applied for reduction and limit cycle calculation of a highly nonlinear structural aeroelastic wing. The limit cycle is arisen from structural nonlinearity due to the large deflection of the wing. Results obtained by different orders of centre manifolds are compared with those obtained by time marching method (fourth-order Runge-Kutta method). These comparis...

A Comparison of Smart and Conventional Flaps Close to Ground on Aerodynamic Performance

The prediction of aerodynamic characteristics and smart flap of airfoil under the ground effect are carried out by the integration of computational fluid dynamics. Considering different types of beams, a parametric bending profile of a smart flap is designed. Cantilever beam with uniformly varying load with roller support at the free end is considered in here. A pressure-based implicit procedur...

A Practical Method for Investigation of Aerodynamic and Longitudinal Static Stability of Wing-in-Ground Effect

The purpose of this paper is to present a fast, economical and practical method for mathematical modeling of aerodynamic characteristics of rectangular wing-in-ground effect (WIG). Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations were converted to Bernoulli equation by reasonable assumptions. Also Helmbold's equation was developed for calculation of the slope of wing lift coefficient in ground ...
