Numerical study of wind-tunnel sidewall effects on circulation control airfoil flows

Abstract:

Two-and three-dimensional numerical simulations are performed of the flow around a circulation control airfoil (using a Coanda jet blowing overarounded trailing edge) placed in a rectangular wind-tunnel test section. The airfoil model spans the entire tunnel and the span-to-chord ratio of the model is 3.26. The objective of this numerical study, in which we solve the compressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations in a time-resolved manner (but the solutions eventually converge to stea...
