Research on Sidewall Interference Control in Airfoil Wind Tunnel Test Based on Vortex Generator
The wind tunnel sidewall boundary layer needs to be controlled since the sidewall interference in the wind tunnel test of the large-thickness airfoil is serious.In this paper, passive vortex generators(VG) are used at first time to control the sidewall ...

Resolvent-analysis-based design of airfoil separation control [PDF]
We use resolvent analysis to design active control techniques for separated flows over a NACA 0012 airfoil. Spanwise-periodic flows over the airfoil at a chord-based Reynolds number of $23\,000$ and a free-stream Mach number of $0.3$ are considered at ...

Airfoil-like mechanics generate thrust on the anterior body of swimming fishes
Significance Many fishes have bodies shaped like a low-drag airfoil, with a rounded leading edge and a smoothly tapered trailing region, and move like an airfoil pitching at a small angle.
