LES-based Study of the Roughness Effects on the Wake of a Circular Cylinder from Subcritical to Transcritical Reynolds Numbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This paper investigates the effects of surface roughness on the flow past a circular cylinder at subcritical to transcritical Reynolds numbers. Large eddy simulations of the flow for sand grain roughness of size k/D = 0.02 are performed (D is the ...

Experimental Aerodynamics of a Small Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Coated with Bio-Inspired Microfibers Under Static and Dynamic Stall

open access: yesAerospace
A passive flow control technique in the form of microfiber coatings with a diverging pillar cross-section area was applied to the wing suction surface of a small tailless unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The coatings are inspired from ‘gecko feet’ surfaces,

Uranium isotopic separation by aerodynamic methods. Final report. [Jet membrane and velocity slip processes]

open access: yes, 1979
The jet membrane is a new aerodynamic setaration concept for enriching uranium. The project described in this report had two objectives: (1) to demonstrate experimentally that uranium isotopes can be separated using the jet membrane concept, and (2) to make an assessment of the economic viability of the jet membrane in relation to competing processes ...

The transfer of fibres in the carding machine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The problem of understanding the transfer of fibres between carding-machine surfaces is addressed by considering the movement of a single fibre in an airflow.

Aerodynamic characteristics of general aviation at high angle of attack with the propeller slip stream.

open access: yesJournal of the Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences, 1985
The aerodynamic characteristics of the FA-300 business aircraft at high angle of attack with the propeller stream are described. The FA-300 offers two types, FA-300-700 for 340 HP, and -710 for 450 Hp of the engine. The effects of the propeller slipstream on the high angle of the attack are discussed.

CFD Modeling of a Realistic Turbofan Blade for Noise Prediction. Part 1: Aerodynamics

open access: yes, 2019
Various aspects of the numerical modeling of a scale-model turbofan blade are investigated for the purpose of future noise assessment. The fan geometry considered is the baseline configuration of the “Fan Noise Source Diagnostic Test” (SDT) experimental ...

Some consequences of non-local-equilibrium in hypersonic aerodynamic flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In simulating high-speed, high-altitude aerodynamics it is important to be able to capture physical phenomena that are due to the non-local-equilibrium nature of the rarefied gas flow (this is in addition to any effects due to dissociation, ionisation ...

Study of Building Aerodynamics for Designing Natural Ventilation System

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering & Technology, 2018
Study of building aerodynamics is an important part of building design because aerodynamic factor helps us to design considering wind velocity. If building has not been designed with this factor, wind may damage external walls of the building.
