EXPERIMENTAL FLOW VISUALIZATION FOR CORRUGATED AIRFOILS AT LOW REYNOLDS NUMBER INCLUDING DEVELOPMENT OF A PITCH AND PLUNGE FIXTURE

Micro Air Vehicles (MAV’s) have small size and extreme maneuverability which makes them ideal for surveillance. Propulsion mechanisms include propellers, rotors, and flapping airfoils. Flapping motions, along with biologically-inspired wing profiles, are of interest due to their use of natural physi...
