Investigation on Characterizing Heated Pulsating Flows with Hot Wire Anemometers - A Hands-On Approach
The pulsating heated flows are traditionally a difficult subject to treat with conventional hot wire or film methods. Special factors that complicate matters are flow reversal and non linear flow effects of vortices and...
Subsonic Jet Pump Comparative Analysis
The paper presents the numerical and experimental studies carried out to optimize, from an aerodynamic point of view, a subsonic jet pump used on aircraft. The optimization of the subsonic jet pump will be done from the...
Missile Grid Fins Analysis using Computational Fluid Dynamics: A Systematic Review
Grid Fins are unconventional control surfaces, consisting of cells in an outer frame. Uniqueness of Grid Fins is that they are aligned parallel to the direction of air flow. The orientation of these fins results in aerod...
Twisted Contact Structures in Turbulent Flows
The “hairpin” vortical structure initiated from a conceptual model of Theodorsen refers to a Ω-shaped vortex with two streamwise-oriented legs connected via a raised spanwise-oriented arch. Both computational and experim...
Osprey – war for its own existence
The aircraft that flies like an airplane but takes off and lands like a chopper. It has been a long, strange trip: the V-22 has been 25 years in development, more than twice as long as the Apollo program that put men on...
