Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 8
Book Description
Results of recent experimental studies into the effect of compressibility on dynamic stall of oscillating airfoils are reviewed. Stroboscopic schlieren images of the strongly unsteady flow field are presented, showing the development of the dynamic stall vortex. and its progression down the airfoil. The effect of varying free-stream Mach number, and frequency of oscillation of the airfoil are demonstrated, and examples of local supersonic flow are presented including the presence of a shock near the leading edge of the airfoil.

The Phenomenon of Dynamic Stall

ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
Stall and its consequences are fundamentally important to the design and operation of flight vehicles. A certain degree of unsteadiness always accompanies the flow over an airfoil or other streamlined body at high angle of attack, but the stall of a lifting surface undergoing unsteady motion is even more complex than static stall. Dynamic stall remains a major unsolved problem with a variety of current applications in aeronautics, hydrodynamics, and wind engineering. This report summarizes the main physical features of the phenomenon and the attempts that have been made to predict it. The information presented is drawn mainly from recent review articles and investigations by the author and his colleagues. Since a large fraction of the existing knowledge has come from experimental research, the details of dynamic stall are discussed principally in physical terms.

Flow Visualization of Dynamic Stall on an Oscillating Airfoil

Pages : 116
Book Description
Stroboscopic schlieren photography was used to investigate the effects of compressibility, reduced frequency, and amplitude on the dynamic stall of a NACA 0012 airfoil subjected to sinusoidal oscillation. The Mach number was varied from M at infinity = 0.25 to M at infinity = 0.45 (corresponding to a Reynolds number variation of Re = 450,000 to Re = 810,000); the reduced frequency was varied from k = 0.025 to k = 0.10. Oscillation amplitudes of alpha sub m = 5 deg and alpha sub m = 10 deg were compared. Schlieren photographs are presented, which document the dynamic stall vortex formation, convection, and shedding sequence for various experimental conditions. Additionally, a preliminary examination of the flow reattachment process was conducted. Data derived from the photographs indicates that increasing the compressibility causes dynamic stall to occur at lower angles of attack; while, increasing the reduced frequency and/or the oscillation amplitude effectively delays dynamic stall effects to a higher angle of attack. Flow reattachment is sensitive to both Mach number and reduced frequency for low values of these parameters; when either the Mach number or reduced frequency is sufficiently high, the reattachment process stabilizes. Keywords: Dynamic stall; Dynamic lift; Unsteady lift; Helicopter retreating blade stall; Oscillating airfoil; Flow visualization; Schlieren method. Theses. (jhd).

Calculation of Boundary Layers Near the Stagnation Point of an Oscillating Airfoil
Author: Tuncer Cebeci
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 22
Book Description
The results of an investigation of boundary layers close to the stagnation point of an oscillating airfoil are reported. Two procedures for generating initial conditions - the characteristics-box scheme and a quasi-static approach - were investigated, and the quasi-static approach was shown to be appropriate provided the initial region was far from any flow separation. With initial conditions generated in this way, the unsteady boundary-layer equations were solved for the flow in the leading-edge region of a NACA 0012 airfoil oscillating from 0 degrees to 5 degrees. Results were obtained for both laminar and turbulent flow, and, in the latter case, the effect of transition was assessed by specifying its occurrence at different locations. The results demonstrate the validity of the numerical scheme and suggest that the procedures should be applied to calculation of the entire flow around oscillating airfoils. (Author).
