Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) using high-speed camera and laser has been applied to turbulent flow regions in the wake of a stalled aircraft wing. The measurements took place on the Common Research Model (CRM) of NASA in the pressurized cryogenic European Transsonic Wind tunnel (ETW) within the framework of the EU project ESWIRP. The employed high-speed PIV setup is described and preliminary results are presented comprising sub-(M = 0.17) and transsonic (M = 0.85) stall conditions at flight Reynolds numbers of 11.6 and 30 million, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
