Flow Structure behind a Wing at High Reynolds Numbers

Year: 2018

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The stereo PIV measurement were performed behind a wing in the plane perpendicular to the flow to study the vortical structures oriented in the streamwise direction, which take place both in suction and pressure sides of the wing. The Reynolds numbers during the experiments in the 3 m wind tunnel range from 0.5 million up to 1.5 million.
