Unsteady flowfields over a stationary/flapping airfoil combination in tandem are computed using a Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes solver. A single C-type grid is employed and the Happing motion of the trailing airfoil is implemented by deforming the grid in the near vicinity of the trailing airfoil. The unsteady effect of the flapping motion on the upstream airfoil is investigated by varying the location, the flapping amplitude and frequency of the trailing airfoil. Unsteady flowfields arc presented in terms of instantaneous vorticity contours, boundary layer profiles, unsteady and average pressure drag coefficients. It is observed that the flapping motion produces some drag reduction over the steady-state drag and some flow entrainment at the trailing edge for certain flapping amplitude and frequency motions. However, further numerical and experimental investigations are needed for better understanding of these complex unsteady interference effects.

A computational study of a close-coupled delta canard-wing-body configuration
Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı; Vandyken, Robert B (1996-06-20)
Subsonic flowfields over a close-coupled delta canard-wing-body configuration at high angles of attack from 20° to 30' are computed using the OVERFLOW Navier-Stokes solver. Computed flowfields are presented in terms of particle traces, surface streamlines and leeward-side surface pressure distributions for the canard on and off configurations. The interaction between the canard and the wing vortices, wing vortex breakdown and the influence of the canard on vortex breakdown are identified. It is computed tha...
UNSTEADY AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF A DUAL-ELEMENT AIRFOIL
Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), 1994-05-01)
Unsteady aerodynamic behavior and load characteristics of a VR-7 slat/airfoil combination oscillating sinusoidally between 5-25 deg have been studied. The unsteady, compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved on a multiblock grid using an approximate factorization finite difference scheme. In the case of a single airfoil, a massive flow separation and formation of a strong vortex is observed. The vortex-induced suction and the shedding of the vortex into the wake is responsible for high aerodynamic load...
Unsteady aerodynamics of a pitching NACA 0012 airfoil at low Reynolds number
Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda (SAGE Publications, 2019-11-01)
The present paper aims to investigate numerically small amplitude oscillation of NACA 0012 airfoil at Re = 1000. The airfoil is sinusoidally pitching around the quarter chord point with 1 degrees pitch amplitude about a mean angle of attack. The computations are performed for mean angles of attack ranging from 0 degrees to 60 degrees and for pitching frequencies of 1 Hz and 4 Hz. The effect of the mean angle of attack and pitching frequency on the instantaneous forces as well as the vortex structure is inve...
Three dimensional laminar compressible navier stokes solver for internal rocket flow applications
Coşkun, Korhan; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007)
A three dimensional, Navier-Stokes finite volume flow solver which uses Roe’s upwind flux differencing scheme for spatial and Runge-Kutta explicit multi-stage time stepping scheme and implicit Lower-Upper Symmetric Gauss Seidel (LU-SGS) iteration scheme for temporal discretization on unstructured and hybrid meshes is developed for steady rocket internal viscous flow applications. The spatial accuracy of the solver can be selected as first or second order. Second order accuracy is achieved by piecewise linea...
Unsteady aerodynamic forces estimation on a square cylinder by TR-PIV
Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda; Davıd, L. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-02-01)
The unsteady aerodynamic forces acting on a square cross-sectional cylinder are investigated by means of time-resolved particle image velocimetry (TR-PIV) at Reynolds number 4,900. The objective of the investigation is to prove the feasibility of non-intrusive force measurements around two-dimensional bodies. The PIV measurements performed at a rate of 1 kHz enable a time resolved (TR) description of the vortex shedding phenomenon occurring at 10 Hz and to follow the time evolution of vortex dominated wake....
