Download or read book Low Reynolds Number Aerodynamics written by Thomas J. Mueller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current interest in a variety of low Reynolds number applications has focused attention on the design and evaluation of efficient airfoil sections at chord Reynolds numbers from about 100,000 to about 1,000,000. These applications include remotely piloted vehicles (RPVs) at high altitudes, sailplanes, ultra-light man-carrying/man powered aircraft, mini-RPVs at low altitudes and wind turbines/propellers. The purpose of this conference was to bring together those researchers who have been active in areas closely related to this subject. All of the papers presented are research type papers. Main topics are: Airfoil Design and Analysis, Computational Studies, Stability and Transition, Laminar Separation Bubble, Steady and Unsteady Wind Tunnel Experiments and Flight Experiments.

Download or read book Aerodynamics of Low Reynolds Number Flyers written by Wei Shyy and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low Reynolds number aerodynamics is important to a number of natural and man-made flyers. Birds, bats, and insects have been of interest to biologists for years, and active study in the aerospace engineering community, motivated by interest in micro air vehicles (MAVs), has been increasing rapidly. The primary focus of this book is the aerodynamics associated with fixed and flapping wings. The book consider both biological flyers and MAVs, including a summary of the scaling laws-which relate the aerodynamics and flight characteristics to a flyer's sizing on the basis of simple geometric and dynamics analyses, structural flexibility, laminar-turbulent transition, airfoil shapes, and unsteady flapping wing aerodynamics. The interplay between flapping kinematics and key dimensionless parameters such as the Reynolds number, Strouhal number, and reduced frequency is highlighted. The various unsteady lift enhancement mechanisms are also addressed, including leading-edge vortex, rapid pitch-up and rotational circulation, wake capture, and clap-and-fling.

This book was released on 1949 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A faired, double-wedge airfoil section, 4.23 percent thick, was investigated with plain nose and trailing-edge flaps. The nose flap was 0.16 chord of the airfoil and the trailing-edge flap was 0.25 chord of the airfoil. Section lift, drag, and pitching-momnet data are presented for a Reynolds number of 5,800,000 which corresponded to a Mach number of 0.17.
