Flow turning effect and laminar control by the 3D curvature of leading edge serrations from owl wing
Muthukumar Muthuramalingam, Edward Talboys, Hermann Wagner +1
This work describes a novel mechanism of laminar flow control of a backward swept wing with a comb-like leading edge device. It is inspired by the leading-edge comb on owl feathers…
The Peregrine Falcon's Dive: On the Pull-Out Maneuver and Flight Control Through Wing-Morphing
Omar Selim, Erwin R. Gowree, Christian Lagemann +3
During the pull-out maneuver, Peregrine falcons were observed to adopt specific flight configurations which are thought to offer an aerodynamic advantage over aerial prey. Analysis…
Effect of different geometries of self-oscillating trailing-edge flaplets on aerofoil self-noise
E. Talboys, T. F. Geyer, F. Pruefer +1
This paper presents an acoustic study of a standard NACA 0012 aerofoil with additional self-oscillating passive flaplets attached to the trailing edge. The tests with varying geome…
An aeroacoustic investigation into the effect of self-oscillating trailing edge flaplets
E. Talboys, T. F. Geyer, C. Bruecker
The aeroacoustics of a NACA 0012 aerofoil with an array of self-oscillating flexible flaplets attached on the trailing edge has been investigated at low to moderate chord based Rey…
Upstream Shear Layer Stabilisation via Self-Oscillating Trailing Edge Flaplets
Edward Talboys, Christoph Bruecker
The flow around a symmetric aerofoil (NACA 0012) with an array of flexible flaplets attached to the trailing edge has been investigated at Reynolds numbers of 100,000 - 150,000 by…
