Vorticity dynamics and stability of the leading-edge vortex on revolving wings

L Chen, B Cheng, J Wu - Physics of Fluids, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
The leading-edge vortex (LEV) is well known for its contribution to the high-lift generation in
a wide variety of biological organisms, such as flying insects, auto-rotating samaras, and …

Inflow-velocity and rotational effects on revolving and translating wings

JH Paulson, T Jardin, JHJ Buchholz - Physics of Fluids, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
An aspect ratio 9.5 rectangular wing is articulated in revolving and translating motions at a
45 angle of incidence and Reynolds number R e= O (300)⁠. The effects of rotational …
