Deng, S. (author), Xiao, T. (author), Van Oudheusden, B.W. (author), Bijl, H. (author)A numerical investigation is performed to address the flexing effect on the propulsion performance of flapping wing particularly on the counter-flapping wings of the biplane configuration. A Reynolds number of 10,000 is considered in the present study which corresponds to the flight regime of most existing flapping wing micro air vehicles. The...journal article 2015

Percin, M. (author), Vanierschot, M. (author), Van Oudheusden, B.W. (author)Annular jet flows are of practical interest in view of their occurrence in many industrial applications in the context of bluff-body combustors [1]. They feature different complex flow characteristics despite their simple geometry: a central recirculation zone (CRZ) as a result of flow separation behind the centerbody and an outer (between the...conference paper 2015

Blinde, P.L. (author), Gentile, V. (author), Van Oudheusden, B.W. (author), Schrijer, F.F.J. (author)Quantification of mean and fluctuating surface loads is critical for the efficient design of aerospace structures. To measure surface pressure in experiments, wind tunnel models are typically equipped with pressure transducers, which offer high sampling rates and high sensitivity. In order to have a sufficient spatial sampling of the surface...conference paper 2015

Gentile, V. (author), Schrijer, F.F.J. (author), Van Oudheusden, B.W. (author), Scarano, F. (author)Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) was used to study the wake of an ogive-cylinder with after-body at a diameter-based Reynolds number ReD = 6.7 · 104. The vertical fluctuations reduced from a maximum of 0.18 U? in absence of rear-protrusion, up to 0.12 U? and 0.1 U? when the main-body to after- body diameter ratio d/D was increased...conference paper 2015

(author)The modal streamwise BiGlobal stability approach introduces problems regarding the specification of in- and outflow boundary conditions (BCs). Several conditions linked to lower hierarchical stability frameworks are elaborated and are applied to a freestream and boundary layer flow.
