Book Description
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect a trailing vortex wake has on an airfoil undergoing a constant rate of change of angle of attack, alpha, in two-dimensional, incompressible, irrotational flow. Potential flow theory, conformal mapping by the Joukowski transformation, and numerical integration and differentiation techniques were used to develop a computer algorithm to model the problem. Once the program was formulated, it was used to solve the impulsive-start problem of airfoil motion. The results were found to be in excellent agreement with the results obtained by others. When applied to the constant rate-of-change of angle-of-attack problem, the results showed that a trailing vortex wake has a measurable and predictable effect on the production of lift on an airfoil undergoing a constant alpha. While results of this work, taken alone, are helpful in understanding the phenomena known as dynamic stall, coupled with existing boundary-layer studies the results may lead to additional understanding of the phenomena. More specifically, the computer program develop here could be used to predict more realistically the inviscid flow about a pitching airfoil as it approaches the dynamic-stall conditions.

Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences
Author: Wade H. Shafer
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1468451979
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 29 (thesis year 1984) a total of 12,637 theses titles from 23 Canadian and 202 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 29 reports theses submitted in 1984, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
