Impingement of Water Droplets on NACA 65A004 Airfoil at 0 Deg Angle of Attack [PDF]

open access: yes
The trajectories of water droplets in the air flowing past an NACA 6511004 airfoil at a n angle of attack of 0 deg were determined. The amount of water in droplet form impinging on the airfoil , the area of droplet impingement, and the rate of droplet ...

NASA low- and medium-speed airfoil development [PDF]

open access: yes
The status of NASA low and medium speed airfoil research is discussed. Effects of airfoil thickness-chord ratios varying from 9 percent to 21 percent on the section characteristics for a design lift coefficient of 0.40 are presented for the initial low ...

A Zonal Detached Eddy Simulation of the Trailing Edge Stall Process of a LS0417 Airfoil

open access: yesAerospace
A Zonal Detached Eddy Simulation (ZDES) based on the SST turbulence model is implemented to the numerical investigation of the trailing edge stall of a LS-0417 airfoil, which includes multiple DES modes for different classifications of flow separation ...

An experimental study of transonic flow about a supercritical airfoil. Static pressure and drag data obtained from tests of a supercritical airfoil and an NACA 0012 airfoil at transonic speeds, supplement [PDF]

open access: yes
Surface static-pressure and drag data obtained from tests of two slightly modified versions of the original NASA Whitcomb airfoil and a model of the NACA 0012 airfoil section are presented.

Redesigned rotor for a highly loaded, 1800 ft/sec tip speed compressor fan stage 1: Aerodynamic and mechanical design [PDF]

open access: yes
A highly loaded, high tip-speed fan rotor was designed with multiple-circular-arc airfoil sections as a replacement for a marginally successful rotor which had precompression airfoil sections. The substitution of airfoil sections was the only aerodynamic

A Method to Design an Efficient Airfoil for Small Wind Turbines in Low Wind Speed Conditions Using XFLR5 and CFD Simulations

open access: yesEnergies
Small wind turbines operating in low wind speed regions have not had any significant success. In addition, small wind speed regions occupy a large area of the world, so they represent a potential area for installing small wind turbines in the future.

A new flow model for highly separated airfoil flows at low speeds [PDF]

open access: yes
An analytical model for separated airfoil flows is presented which is based on experimentally observed physical phenomena. These include a free stagnation point aft of the airfoil and a standing vortex in the separated region.

cuIBM -- A GPU-accelerated Immersed Boundary Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A projection-based immersed boundary method is dominated by sparse linear algebra routines. Using the open-source Cusp library, we observe a speedup (with respect to a single CPU core) which reflects the constraints of a bandwidth-dominated problem on ...

An analytic study of nonsteady two-phase laminar boundary layer around an airfoil [PDF]

open access: yes
Recently, NASA, FAA, and other organizations have focused their attention upon the possible effects of rain on airfoil performance. Rhode carried out early experiments and concluded that the rain impacting the aircraft increased the drag.

Response of a Thin Airfoil Encountering a Strong Density Discontinuity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Airfoil theory for unsteady motion has been developed extensively assuming the undisturbed medium to be of uniform density, a restriction accurate for motion in the atmosphere, Glauert (1929), Burgers (1935), Theodorsen (1935), Kussner (1936), Karman and
