Flow-field and Noise Characterization of a Controlled-Diffusion Airfoil under stall

The present experimental investigation focuses on a flow-field and noise characterization of a CD airfoil experiencing large flow separation and stall. Measurements are performed to investigate the effect of Reynolds number stalling noise signature of the CD airfoil. This study includes investigation of the potential interaction of wind tunnel...

Flow-field and Noise Characterization of a Controlled-Diffusion Airfoil subject to flow separation and stall

The present experimental investigation in the anechoic wind tunnel of university of Sherbrooke focuses on the flow-field and noise characterization of a Controlled Diffusion (CD) airfoil, with the flow transitioning from an attached boundary layer at 15◦ incidence to a completely detached one (deep stall) at 22◦ incidence. Simultaneous unsteady...

Experimental and Analytical Investigation of the Distortion of Turbulence Interacting with a Porous Airfoil

View Video Presentation: https://doi-org.tudelft.idm.oclc.org/10.2514/6.2021-2289.vid<br/><br/>A possible strategy for the reduction of the aeroacoustic noise generated by turbulence interacting with a wing profile, also referred to as leading-edge noise, is represented by the implementation of a porous medium in the structure of the airfoil....

On the role of turbulence distortion on leading-edge noise reduction by means of porosity

A possible strategy for the reduction of the aeroacoustic noise generated by turbulence interacting with a wing profile, also referred to as leading-edge noise, is represented by the implementation of a porous medium in the structure of the airfoil. However, the physical mechanisms involved in this noise mitigation technique remain unclear....

On the use of two-point velocity correlation in wall-pressure models for turbulent flow past a trailing edge under adverse pressure gradient

Two-point velocity statistics near the trailing edge of a controlled diffusion airfoil are obtained, both experimentally and analytically, by decomposing Poisson's equation for pressure into the mean-shear (MS) and turbulence-turbulence (TT) interaction terms. The study focuses on the modeling of each interaction term, in order to allow for...
