Intermittency of a transitional airfoil flow with laminar separation bubble solved by the lattice-Boltzmann method

Bernardo Luiz Ribeiro, Cayan Dantas, William Wolf

The flow over a NACA0012 airfoil at a moderate Reynolds number Re = 50,000 and angle of attack of alpha = 3 degrees is investigated using the lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM). The LB…

Leading edge vortex formation and wake trajectory: Synthesizing measurements, analysis, and machine learning

Howon Lee, Nicholas Simone, Yunxing Su +4

The strength and trajectory of a leading edge vortex (LEV) formed by a pitching-heaving hydrofoil (chord ) is studied. The LEV is identified using the -criterion method, whic…

Vortex dynamics and Reynolds number effects of an oscillating hydrofoil in energy harvesting mode

Bernardo Luiz R. Ribeiro, Sarah L. Frank, Jennifer A. Franck

The energy extraction and vortex dynamics from the sinusoidal heaving and pitching motion of an elliptical hydrofoil is explored through large-eddy simulations (LES) at a Reynolds…
