Aerodinamika adalah salah satu cabang dinamika yang berkenaan dengan kajian pergerakan udara, khususnya ketika udara tersebut berinteraksi dengan benda padat. Pada aerodinamika terdapat sebuah airfoil. Untuk meningkatkan kinerja airfoil, pada bagian sayap pesawat dipasang vortex generator. Aliran udara yang mengalir melalui sayap pesawat akan membentuk sebuah airfoil yang bisa menyebabkan pesawat tersebut bisa terbang. Metode yang digunakan pada studi ini adalah simulasi menggunakan terowongan angin (wind tunnel). Yang menghasilkan aliran udara yang membentuk menjadi airfoil dapat terlihat dengan menggunakan smoke generator. Dengan benda uji NACA 0012 dengan sudut serang (angle of attack) , dan Dari hasil penelitian ini didapatkan peforma aerodinamika dan fenomena aliran udara di sekitar airfoil. Pada penelitian ini ada perbedaan airfoil dengan menggunakan vortex generator, dan tidak menggunakan vortex generator. Airfoil yang menggunakan vortex generator sudut separasinya lebih kecil daripada airfoil yang tidak menggunakan vortex generator.

Airfoil is an aerodynamic form intended to produce a lift force with the smallest drag force. When an airfoil is passed through a fluid flow that causes interaction between the air flow and the surface, variations in velocity and pressure will occur along the top and bottom surfaces of the airfoil, as well as the front and back of the airfoil. The difference in pressure between the upper and lower surface of the airfoil is what causes the resultant force in the direction perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow, this force is called the lift force (lift). In this experiment NACA 0012 airfoil experiments have been carried out using simple wind tunnel. Experiments were conducted with the aim to determine the effect of the angle of attack on the performance of the NACA 0012 airfoil which then analyzed the lift force of the NACA 0012 airfoil. The variation of the angle of attack used was 0 °, 3 °, 6 °, 9 °, 12 °, and 15 ° and used wind speed of 21.5 m / s. The greatest lift force is obtained at an angle of attack of 9 ° with a value of 0.981 while the largest lifting coefficient with a value of 0.106. The greater the angle of attack the greater the airfoil lift force, but for symmetrical airfoil stall at an angle that is too large

Pada pembuatan suatu pesawat terbang, suatu analisis sebelum terbang terhadap kinerja aerodinamika dari pesawat tersebut sangat diperlukan, terutama untuk daerah dimana metoda analitik/empirik tidak dapat menjangkaunya seperti perkiraan CLmax, karakteristik stall dan lain-lainnya. Satu hal penting yang harus diperhatikan dalam pendesainan suatu pesawat yaitu pemilihan airfoil dan modifikasinya. Modifikasi airfoil dilakukan untuk menunda separasi aliran dan meningkatkan performa airfoil, salah satunya dengan vortex generator. Hal ini dapat diindikasikan dengan tertundanya separasi aliran yang melintasi permukaan atas dari airfoil. Topik yang dikaji dalam penelitian ini adalah aliran melintasi airfoil NACA 0012 dengan penambahan vortex generator. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membandingkan karakteristik aliran fluida dengan dan tanpa penambahan vortex generator. Profil vortex generator yang digunakan adalah trapezoidal vortex generator dengan konfigurasi straight dan ditempatkan pada x/c = 20% arah chord line dari leading edge. Variasi yang digunakan adalah bilangan Reynolds (Re) dan sudut serang (α) pada airfoil. Kecepatan freestream yang digunakan yaitu kecepatan 10 m/s dan 20 m/s, pada sudut serang (α) 0°, 4°, 10°, 12°, 15°,dan 17°. Dari penelitian ini didapatkan performa aerodinamika dan fenomena aliran di sekitar airfoil. Perihal ini ada peningkatan performa aerodinamika pesawat dari sudut serang 0° sampai sudut serang 12° terbukti dengan meningkatnya kecepatan transisi dari laminar boundary layer menjadi turbulent boundary layer.

Heat transfer is a naturally occurring phenomenon which can be greatly enhanced by introducing longitudinal vortex generators (VGs). As the longitudinal vortices can potentially enhance heat transfer with small pressure loss penalty, VGs are widely used to enhance the heat transfer of flat-plate type heat exchangers. However, there are few researches which deal with its thermal optimization. Three dimensional numerical simulations are performed to study the effect of angle of attack and attach angle (angle between VG and wall) of vortex generator on the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics of a flat-plate channel. The flow is assumed as steady state, incompressible and laminar within the range of studied Reynolds numbers (Re = 380, 760, 1140). In the present work, the average and local Nusselt number and pressure drop are investigated for Rectangular vortex generator (RVG) with varying angle of attack and attach angle. The numerical results indicate that the heat transfer and pressure drop increases with increasing the angle of attack to a certain range and then decreases with increasing angle of attack. Moreover, the attach angle also plays an importance role; a 90° attach angle is not necessary for enhancing the heat transfer. Usually, heat transfer enhancement is achieved at the expense of pressure drop penalty. To find the optimal position of vortex generator to obtain maximum heat transfer and minimum pressure drop, the data obtained from numerical simulations are used to train a BRANN (Bayesian-regularized artificial neural network). This in turn is used to drive multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) to find the optimal parameters of VGs in the form of Pareto front. The optimal values of these parameters are finally presented.

On the basis of javelin wind tunnel experiment, we established mathematical model of javelin flight to conduct a computer optimization and got the conclusions. When the initial velocity is in the range of 25m/s-30m/s, the best throwing condition is: the throwing angle is 40°, the angle of attack is 11°. The javelin throwing condition is not zero angle of attack was necessary and sufficient for obtained aerodynamic efficiency.

Abstract. The aerodynamic characteristics of DTU-LN221 airfoil is studied. ANSYS Fluent is used to simulate the airfoil performance with seven different turbulence models. The simulation results for the airfoil with different turbulence models are compared with the wind tunnel experimental data performed under the same operating conditions. It is found that there is a good agreement between the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) predicted aerodynamic force coefficients with wind tunnel experimental data especially with angle of attack between −5° to 10°. RSM is chosen to investigate the flow field structure and the surface pressure coefficients under different angle of attack between −5° to 10°. Also the effect of changing air temperature, velocity and turbulence intensity on lift and drag coefficients/forces are examined. The results show that it is recommended to operate the wind turbines airfoil at low air temperature and high velocity to enhance the performance of the wind turbines.
