Rainfall has been considered as an important meteorological factor to threat aircraft flight
safety. Adverse effects of rainfall on aircraft aerodynamics have been a constantly hot …

Drop impact on an airfoil surface takes place in drop-laden two-phase flow conditions such
as rain and icing, which are encountered by wind turbines or airplanes. This phenomenon is …

In this study the pure effect of raindrops on dynamic stall of a pitching airfoil has been
investigated. The simulation was performed at Reynolds number of 10 6 with raindrop …

The ambient atmospheric environment significantly affects the performance of wind turbines
operating in different meteorological conditions. As rain is a common meteorological …

Severe weather, especially strong rain-loaded wind, appears in coastal areas frequently.
The strong wind driving raindrops worsens the wind effect and aggravates its impact on the …

The frenzied demand for the transit of humans and commodities in this modern world
requires aircraft to operate in adverse weather conditions of rainfall, ice accretion, and gust …

Sustained flight operation in the rain conditions is still a challenge to a pilot. This problem
can be mainly attributed to the aerodynamic performance degradation of aircraft. In this …

In this study, the effects of heavy rain on the longitudinal stability and control performance of
the DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft are determined based on data from numerical simulation. A …

Sustaining flight operation that encounters with rainfall might be a challenge to a pilot due to
lacking of understanding flight dynamics in the rain conditions. This paper, combined with a …

Among various aviation meteorological conditions, heavy rain is an important one that may
seriously affect aircraft flight safety. Over the past decades, appreciable efforts have been …
