Visualization of Flow Separation and Control by Vortex Generators on an Single Flap in Landing Configuration
Součková, Natálie ; Kuklová, J. ; Popelka, Lukáš ; Matějka, Milan
This paper focuses on a suppression of the flow separation, which occurs on a deflected flap, by means of vortex generators (VG's). An airfoil NACA 63A421 with a simple flap and vane-type vortex generators were used. The investigation was carried out by using experimental and numerical methods. The data from the numerical simulation of the flapped airfoil without VG's control were used for the vortex generator design. Two sizes, two different shapes and various spacing of the vortex generators were tested. The flow past the airfoil was visualized through three methods, namely tuft filaments technique, oil and thermo camera visualization. The experiments were performed in closed circuit wind tunnels with closed and open test sections. The lift curves for both cases without and with vortex generators were acquired for a lift coefficient improvement determination. The improvement was achieved for several cases by means all of the applied methods.

Řízení mezní vrstvy na profilu s vychýlenou klapkou pomocí vírových generátorů
Součková, Natálie ; Šimurda, David ; Popelka, Lukáš
The paper focuses on reducing eventually removing flow separation, which is occurred on deflected flap, with vortex generators. Airfoil NACA 63A421 with simple flap and low profile vane-type vortex generators were used. The investigation was carried out using experimental and numerical method. The flow over the airfoil was visualized by tuft filaments technique in closed circuit wind tunnel for two flap deflections and four angles of attack. Two size and two different shapes of vortex generators were tested. The data from numerical simulation of flapped airfoil without VG's control were used for vortex generator designing.

Numerická simulace aerodynamické interakce křídla a trupu
Šimurda, David ; Popelka, Lukáš ; Zelený, L. ; Matějka, Milan
In order to investigate and understand extent of the wing-body interaction effects taking place during operation of a particular self-launching sailplane, commercial code Fluent 6.3 was used for numerical simulation of flow past a simplified model of TST-10a. Several methods were used to identify vortex structures originating due to interference effects in this part of the aircraft. 3D effects and distortions of pressure and velocity distributions taking place in the junction of the body and the fuselage were observed.
