Experimental Investigation of Transition over a NACA 0018 Airfoil at a Low Reynolds Number
(University of Waterloo, 2011-07-27)Shear layer development over a NACA 0018 airfoil at a chord Reynolds number of 100,000 was investigated experimentally. The effects of experimental setup and analysis tools on the results were also examined. The sensitivity ... -
The Later Stages of Transition over a NACA0018 Airfoil at a Low Reynolds Number
(University of Waterloo, 2014-02-18)The later stages of separated shear layer transition within separation bubbles developing over a NACA0018 airfoil operating at a chord Reynolds number of 105 and at angles of attack of 0, 5, 8, and 10 degrees were investigated ... -
Stability of compressible boundary layers in presence of smooth roughness and wall temperature effects
(University of Waterloo, 2023-01-26)In natural laminar flow design, aircraft manufacturers aim to delay the laminar-to-turbulent transition by modifying the geometric features of the aircraft to stabilize the boundary layer. Yet, the transitional process is ...
