Parametric Study of a Gurney Flap Implementation in a DU91W(2)250 Airfoil
The growth in size and weight of wind turbines over the last years has led to the development of flow control devices, such as Gurney flaps (GFs). In the current work, a parametric study is presented to find the optimal GF length to improve the airfoil ...

A water tunnel study of Gurney flaps [PDF]
Several Gurney flap configurations were tested in the NASA Langley 16 x 24 inch Water Tunnel. These devices provided an increased region of attached flow on a wing upper surface relative to the wing without the flaps.

Buffet loading, dynamic response and aerodynamic control of a suspension bridge in a turbulent wind [PDF]
This paper describes experiments relating to the buffet response and control of a section of a long-span suspension bridge deck elastically mounted as part of a wind tunnel experiment. The bridge section is subject to grid generated flow turbulence.

Effect of Deformable Gurney Flaps on the Output Power of Flapping Turbine
The Gurney flap (GF) is a simple flat plate frequently mounted at the airfoil rear. Several investigations have been devoted to studying the effect of a rigid or even movable GF on the aerodynamic behavior of several devices such as flapping airfoils and

Simulation of tail boom vibrations using main rotor-fuselage Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) [PDF]
In this work, fully-resolved rotor-fuselage interactional aerodynamics is used as the forcing term in a model based on the Euler-Bernoulli equation, aiming to simulate helicopter tail-boom vibration.
