Aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils
Foltýn, Pavel ; Cejpek, Jakub (referee) ; Koutník, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis describes an influence of geometric characteristics of an airfoil on its aerodynamic properties. The first part of the thesis defines airfoil, describes its geometric characteristics, emergence of aerodynamic forces and convection around airfoil. The second part deals with influence of profile geometry on aerodynamic properties of airfoils. It is shown on NACA four and six digit profiles, in their buoyancy and moment lines and polars. The last part deals with wind tunnels and measurement in them. The thesis focuses on forces and moments measurement by force balances and static and total pressure measurement. Velocity measurement is focused on the laser Doppler velocimetry, on the hot-wire velocity probe and PIV method. Very briefly selected flow visualization methods are shown there. Comparison of profile characteristic obtained by measuring in wind tunnels and numerical simulation in Xfoil program is also shown there.

Modern flow visualization techniques
Pištěcká, Kateřina ; Koutník, Tomáš (referee) ; Popela, Robert (advisor)
The subject of this bachelor thesis is an overview of the flow visualization methods applied in the wind tunnels and fly tests. An overview of flow visualization methods is presented in the first part of the work. The particular methods are presented and evaluated with respect of its complexity, requirements on the instrumentation and expanses. The pros and cons are mentioned for each method finally. The second part of the work deals with selection of the flow visualization method suitable for application in the wind tunnel of the Aeronautical department of the VUT Brno.

Flap otpitmization for SKYLEADER aircraft
Kácal, Jan ; Vaněk, František (referee) ; Koutník, Tomáš (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on optimization of the flap for the ultralight aircraft Skyleader JA 600, which is produced by the Jihlavan s.r.o. company. Individual types of flaps used in ultralight aircrafts are described in the initial phase of the thesis. In addition, description of the plane of interest Skyleader has been conducted, while along with the basic characteristics the focus is mainly on its wing and flap. The thesis continues with detailed CFD method calibration task, which is mostly focused on the basic turbulent models comparison. The optimization task conducted within this diploma thesis includes CFD calculations to determine aerodynamic characteristics of the flap provided by Jihlavan company, and subsequent determination of its optimal position. An important part of this thesis is also evaluation of the load and strength of the flap in previously determined optimal position. At the end, the strength and fly tests of the flap in the new position are described.
