Aerodynamic Force and Flow Structures of Two Airfoils in Flapping Motions
Abstract
Description
Aerodynamic force and flow structures of two airfoils in tandem configuration performing flapping motions are studied, using the method of solving the Navier-Stokes equations in moving overset grids. Three typical phase differences between the fore- and aft-airfoil flapping cycles are considered.
