Free Surface Effects on the Hydrodynamic Characteristics of NACA0012

open access: yes水下无人系统学报, 2023
When a transmedia vehicle moves across water and air media, the free surface has a great influence on its airfoil, which brings challenges to the overall design and navigation control.

Spacing Effects in Guided Vertical‐Axis Wind Turbine Arrays for Highway Energy Harvesting Under Multi‐Vehicle Wake Conditions

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Three‐turbine guided Savonius arrays installed along highway corridors extract up to 697 J under multi‐vehicle wake conditions when spaced 12 rotor diameters apart—68% more than compact arrangements. Guide vanes boost output by 80–120%, and interior turbines respond most strongly to spacing, governing overall array performance. ABSTRACT Highway‐induced

High‐Order Projection‐Based Upwind Method for Simulation of Transitional Turbulent Flows

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
In this study, we evaluated the implicit large‐eddy simulation capabilities of the mass‐conserving mixed stress method for transitional turbulent flows and proposed an efficient solution method for large‐scale applications. The results presented in this work show promising outcomes for incompressible aerodynamic flow problems, which can be further ...

"Ladder" structure in tonal noise generated by laminar flow around an airfoil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The presence of a “ladder” structure in the airfoil tonal noise was discovered in the 1970s, but its mechanism hitherto remains a subject of continual investigation in the research community.

Improvement in the performance of Darrieus vertical axis wind turbine using J-type airfoil shape

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology
This study aims to improve the performance of the vertical axis wind turbine using a J-type airfoil shape. In this study we used an optimal airfoil shape called Opt-VF that was obtained in previous research using an optimization method of the Kriging ...

Large‐Scale Applications of Plasma Technologies: Progresses and Challenges

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasma technologies convert electrical power into energetic electrons, ions, reactive species, radiation and heat, thereby breaking through the bottleneck of purely thermal or chemical routes and bringing impressive changes to our world. This roadmap reviews the progress and challenges of plasma technologies from a large‐scale and application ...

Hierarchical Differentiable Fluid Simulation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We introduce a two‐step algorithm that significantly reduces memory usage for solving control problems using differentiable fluid simulation techniques: our method first optimizes for bulk forces at reduced resolution, then refines local details over sub‐domains while maintaining differentiability. In trading runtime for memory, it enables optimization

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Unsteady Thin Airfoil Theory of a Biomorphing Airfoil [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Society for Aeronautical & Space Sciences, 2006
Birds and insect in nature morph their mean camberline shapes to obtain both lift and thrust simultaneously. Previous unsteady thin airfoil theories were derived mainly for a rigid flapping airfoil. An extended unsteady thin airfoil theory for a deformable airfoil is required to analyze the unsteady two-dimensional aerodynamic characteristics of a ...
