Experimental investigation of low speed flow over flapping airfoils and airfoil combinations

A wind tunnel investigation of low speed flow over flapping airfoils and airfoil combinations was performed using flow visualization and laser Doppler velocimetry. Specifically, three cases were studied: A NACA0014 airfoil oscillating in a sinusoidal plunge mode, A NACA0014 airfoil oscillating in a...
