Experiments in swept-wing transition
Abstract
Stability and transition experiments are conducted on a 45 degree sweep airfoil in the ASU Unsteady Wind Tunnel. Combined flow-visualization techniques and hot-wire measurements are used in conjuction with stability-code calculations to map out transition behavior for this flow geometry. Both steady and unsteady crossflow vortices are observed and at this time there is no contradiction with the theoretical predictions.
