Interactive-Boundary-Layer Computations For Oscillating Airfoil

Interactive-boundary-layer method developed for computations of steady flow, extended under assumption of quasi-steady flow, to computations of evolution of two-dimensional flow about oscillating airfoil under light-dynamic-stall conditions. Represents advance toward ability to compute unsteady flows at even greater angles of attack with solutions of equations normally used for description of boundary-layer flows on airfoils prior to stall. Important in practical studies of flow on blades of helicopter rotors, axial compressors, and turbines.

An interactive boundary-layer procedure for oscillating airfoils including transition effects

An interactive boundary-layer method previously developed and tested for steady flows is used here in a quasi-steady manner to examine the evolution of the flow behavior around oscillating airfoils operating inlight stall conditions. The calculations encompass the airfoil and wake flows at angles of attack which lead to flow separation. The location of the onset of transition is represented by a correlation based on steady flows. The results show the large effects of the viscous layer on the variation of lift coefficient with angle of attack and reduced frequency.
