摘要

In this article computations are performed to better understand unsteady, low-Reynolds number aerodynamics, which are critically important in providing insight into the flying characteristics of natural fliers and exploiting natural aerodynamic efficiencies for micro air vehicle (MAV) development. The first computations explore the flow structure over a bio-inspired corrugated airfoil. The flow behavior was found to be strongly affected by the leading-edge geometry due to interaction between the detached shear layer emanating from the leading-edge and first corrugation peak. The second set of simulations explores the aerodynamics of an aspect-ratio, two flexible-membrane wing at angle-of-attack. The impact of membrane flexibility on the aerodynamic performance is shown to come primarily from the development of mean camber, with some further effects arising from the interaction between the dynamic motion of the membrane and the unsteady flowfield above. Finally, the unsteady separation process and induced loading produced by a canonical pitch-and-hold motion for a low-aspect-ratio wing is investigated. The flowfields are computed employing an extensively validated high-fidelity implicit-large-eddy simulation (ILES) approach found to be effective for moderate Reynolds number flows exhibiting mixed laminar, transitional and turbulent regions. This high-order method furnishes a unique, scalable computational capability that has been specifically created to address the simulation issues associated with highly nonlinear, unsteady, transitional flows inherent to MAVs.
