Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Investigation of the Effect of Aspect Ratio on the Airfoil PerformanceM. Kopaç, M. Yılmaz, T. GültopThe effect of aspect ratio on the airfoil performance is investigated for airflow about axially symetric wings as a function of the angle of attack. The magnitudes of aerodynamic forces and moments on airfoils resulting from the incompressible viscous flow fields are determined experimentally. The TE54 wind tunnel used for the experiments is an open conduit and has a 300x300 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,682 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Investigation of Flow Control by Suction and Injection on a Subsonic AirfoilM. H. Shojaefard, A. R. Noorpoor, A. Avanesians, M. GhaffarpourThis study presents a numerical study concerning flow control by suction and injection. The case studied is the flow field over a subsonic airfoil with four suction and injection slots on the suction side of the airfoil. Five different angles of attack, 0, 5, 10, 13.3 and 20 with the Mach number of 0.15 are studied. Three cases are studied … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,428 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradation of Power Generation Performance due to Effects of Various Ice Shapes and Accretions on Wind Turbine BladesAditya Bagade, Changki Mo, Abdelhamid MazherIn today’s world, green energy has become a key initiative as an alternative energy resource. Wind turbines are widely used to harvest wind energy in seasonal and cold environments. Although efficient, cold weather conditions negatively affects wind turbine operations due to ice formation. Damage from icing is seen on blade-tips when super-cooled water droplets that form in colder environments rapidly … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,815 accessesView PDF Cite
