Abstract:
Present study experimentally investigates the effects of ground clearance and Reynolds number on aerodynamic coefficients of smooth and sinusoidal leading-edge wings. Wind tunnel tests are conducted over a wide range of angles of attack from zero to 36 degrees, low Reynolds numbers of 30,000, 45,000 and 60,000, and also ground clearances of 0.5, 1 and ∞. Results showed that reduction of ground clearance and increment of Reynolds number cause the lift coefficient and the lift to drag ratio of both wings to be enhanced. Furthermore, the effects of Reynolds number and ground clearance on the smooth leading-edge wing are more than the sinusoidal leading-edge one. In addition, the sinusoidal leading-edge wing shows an excellent performance in the poststall region due to producing a higher lift and also by delaying the stall angle compared to the smooth leading-edge wing.

Abstract:
Based on RANS method, this paper studied leading-edge tubercle three-dimensional airfoil, which had effect on hydrodynamic performance of three-dimensional airfoil. Both section configurations of the two three-dimensional airfoil models were NACA0020 airfoil. The research method was numerical simulation. First, the leading-edge profile of the first airfoil model was normal. To get stalling angle of the first model, it analyzed hydrodynamic performance of the first model under different angle of attacks at Re=1.35*105. Then, the second model had a sinusoidal leading-edge profile. The second model chose the same Reynolds number. By comparison the numerical calculation results between the first and the second model, the stalling angle of second model delays 3°than the normal airfoil, and the lift coefficient of the second model increases 11.92% than the normal model. The results have laid the foundation for optimization design of leading-edge tubercle three-dimensional airfoil.

Abstract:
As the understanding of the workings of the biological world expands, biomimetic designs increasingly move into the focus of engineering research studies. For this thesis, two studiesinvolving leading edge vortex generation for lift production as observed in nature were explored intheir respective flow regimes. The first study focused on the steady state analysis of streamwise vortices generated byleading edge tubercles of an adult humpback whale flipper. A realistic scaled model of a humpbackflipper was fabricated based on the 3D reconstruction from a sequence of 18 images taken whilecircumscribing an excised flipper of a beached humpback whale. Two complementary modelswith smooth leading edges were transformed from this original digitized model and fabricatedfor testing to further understand the effect of the leading edge tubercles. Experimentally-obtainedforce and qualitative flow measurements were used to study the influence of the leading edgetubercles. The presence of leading edge tubercles are shown to decrease maximum lift coefficient(Cl ), but increase Cl production in the post-stall region. By evaluating a measure of hydrodynamicefficiency, humpback whale flipper geometry is shown to be more efficient in the pre-stall regionand less efficient in the post-stall region as compared to a comparable model with a smooth leadingedge. With respect to a humpback whale, if the decrease in efficiency during post-stall angles ofattack was only required during short periods of time (turning), then this decrease in efficiencymay not have a significant impact on the lift production and energy needs. For the pursuit ofbiomimetic designs, this decrease in efficiency could have potential significance and should beinvestigated further. Qualitative flow measurements further demonstrate that these force results aredue to a delay of separation resulting from the presence of tubercles.The second study investigated explored the effects of flapping frequency on the passive flowcontrol of a flapping wing with a sinusoidal leading edge profile. At a flapping frequency of f =0.05 Hz, an alternating streamwise vortical formation was observed for the sinusoidal leading edge,while a single pair of vortices were present for the straight leading edge. A sinusoidal leading edgecan be used to minimize spanwise flow by the generation of the observed alternating streamwisevortices. An increase in flapping frequency results in these streamwise vortices becoming stretchedin the path of the wing. The streamwise vortices are shown to minimize spanwise flow even afterbeing stretched. Once instabilities are formed at f ≥ 0:1 Hz due to velocity shearing generatedby the increase in cross-radial velocity, the alternating streamwise vortices begin to break downresulting in a increase of spanwise flow.

Abstract:
The marine rudder with leading-edge protuberances is numerically investigated by SST k-ω turbulence model in present investigations. The newly designed rudder has a sinusoidal leading-edge profile along the spanwise direction. The numerical results show that the newly designed rudder helps to improve the lift coefficient of the rudder. The efficiency of the rudder is improved by adopting the leading-edge protuberances. The results are analyzed by means of streamlines and pressure coefficient. The leading-edge protuberances can delay or overcome the stall. The effect of leading-edge protuberances on the pressure coefficient of pressure surface is very small. However, the pressure coefficient of the suction surface is changed in the vicinity of leading-edge.

Abstract:
The leading edge serrations are a type of passive flow control techniques in a compressor cascade. They are particularly attractive as they have been observed to increase the stall angle. This stall postponing character of the serrations is helpful in preventing compressor surge and widens the operational window of the compressor. Due to the simpler geometry of the serration type used in this study, it can be easily implemented onto the existing compressor blades. An experimental study on the flow modifications and losses due to these serrations are conducted in a linear cascade tunnel. The experiments are conducted on blades of NACA 65209 airfoil with and without leading edge serrations at Re of 120,000. Four serration profiles of various width and amplitude are compared. End plane measurements taken with 5-hole probe are studied for the better serration profile and surface flow visualizations are conducted to study the variation in the surface flow pattern on the suction side. The surface flow visualization reveals the presence of local recirculation zones and stream wise vortices created from each wave of the serration leading to flow attachment. These serrated blades have higher losses at 0 deg incidence; the reason for the same is found to be the flat leading edge surfaces formed from serration.

Abstract:
Abstract It is widely known that the spindle speed variation (SSV) is an effective technology for chatter suppression, especially in the turning or boring process. Its simple optimal design, however, is not a simple task. In the past, certain research works considered the chatter onset from the perspective of process energy balance in a vibration cycle. The phase shift between previous (i.e., outer modulation) and present vibrations (i.e., inner modulation) of chatter is a key factor in the process energy balance. The SSV can be conceptually interpreted as a technique that continuously perturbs the phase shift between the inner and outer modulations, thereby changing the process energy balance. Simply put, the chatter energy can be controlled by applying the SSV to suppress the chatter. This study investigates the correlation between the process energy balance and phase shift behavior in the sinusoidal SSV through numerical energy simulation. The results indicate that the phase shift at the maximum spindle speed is an important factor to minimize the total energy balance (i.e., to dissipate the chatter energy) in the SSV cycle. This probably corresponds to the fact that the beat vibration tends to occur near the maximum spindle speed in the SSV. The insights gained from this study are anticipated to serve as a guideline for shaping the phase shift profile in the SSV to effectively suppress chatter vibration.

Abstract:
Abstract Near-wall modelling is one of the most challenging aspects of CFD computations. In fact, integration-to-the-wall with low-Reynolds approach strongly affects accuracy of results, but strongly increases the computational resources required by the simulation. A compromise between accuracy and speed to solution is usually obtained through the use of wall functions, especially in RANS computations, which normally require that the first cell of the grid to fall inside the log-layer (50 < y+ < 200) [1]. This approach can be generally considered as robust, however the derivation of wall functions from attached flow boundary layers can mislead to non-physical results in presence of specific flow topologies, e.g. recirculation, or whenever a detailed boundary layer representation is required (e.g. aeroacoustics studies) [2]. In this work, a preliminary attempt to create an alternative data-driven wall function is performed, exploiting artificial neural networks (ANNs). Whenever enough training examples are provided, ANNs have proven to be extremely powerful in solving complex non-linear problems [3]. The learner that is derived from the multi-layer perceptron ANN, is here used to obtain two-dimensional, turbulent production and dissipation values near the walls. Training examples of the dataset have been initially collected either from LES simulations of significant 2D test cases or have been found in open databases. Assessments on the morphology and the ANN training can be found in the paper. The ANN has been implemented in a Python environment, using scikit-learn and tensorflow libraries [4][5]. The derived wall function is implemented in OpenFOAM v-17.12 [6], embedding the forwarding algorithm in run-time computations exploiting Python3.6m C_Api library. The data-driven wall function is here applied to k-epsilon simulations of a 2D periodic hill with different computational grids and to a modified compressor cascade NACA aerofoil with sinusoidal leading edge. A comparison between ANN enhanced simulations, available data and standard modelization is here performed and reported.

Abstract:
This paper addresses the issue of aerodynamic performance of a novel 3D leading edge modification to a reference low pressure turbine blade. An analysis of tubercles found in nature and used in some engineering applications was employed to synthesize new leading edge geometry. A sinusoidal wave-like geometry characterized by wavelength and amplitude was used to modify the leading edge along the span of a 2D profile, rendering a 3D blade shape. The rationale behind using the sinusoidal leading edge was that they induce streamwise vortices at the leading edge which influence the separation behaviour downstream. Surface pressure and total pressure measurements were made in experiments on a cascade rig. These were complemented with computational fluid dynamics studies where flow visualization was also made from numerical results. The tests were carried out at low Reynolds number of 5.5 × 104 on a well-researched profile representative of conventional low pressure turbine profiles. The performance of the new 3D leading edge geometries was compared against the reference blade revealing a downstream shift in separated flow for the LE tubercle blades; however, total pressure loss reduction was not conclusively substantiated for the blade with leading edge tubercles when compared with the performance of the baseline blade. Factors contributing to the total pressure loss are discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract In the present paper, the performance of compressor blades modified with leading edge tubercles was evaluated and compared with that of a baseline profile at a high subsonic Mach number in a 2-D cascade. Specific tubercle geometries were selected based on an extensive literature survey and a Self-Organizing Map analysis. The compressor blade geometry of a popular aero-engine was reverse-engineered using laser-scanning. Baseline and tubercled compressor blades were 3-D printed and tested. Two sinusoidal tubercle shapes based on different amplitudes and wavelengths and one with a power law profile were selected. A 2-D compressor cascade was designed and commissioned to test these blades at high subsonic Mach number in the transonic wind tunnel at Royal Military College of Canada. Surface flow visualizations were performed with oil for observing and locating compressor blade stall for different sets of blades. Flow direction and the total pressure at the cascade exit were measured using a 5-hole, fast-response, traversing probe. Compressor blade performance was measured and compared with various tubercled blades at various angles of incidence, while maintaining periodicity at the inlet and exit planes. Total pressure loss coefficients were calculated for all 4 blades and compared for 6 positive angle of incidence. Power series tubercled profile resulted in slight improvements in the loss coefficient at 0° incidence and none of tubercled geometry compromized performance at the design point. The baseline blade stalled at 8° and tubercles were capable of delaying stall at this condition. Power series profile outperformed the baseline at all angle of incidence (AOI) with significant improvements at 8° AOI. Power series tubercled profiles performed better than other tubercled geometries at almost all AOI except 10° where sinusoidal tubercled profiles performed better. The presence of smaller valley and broader peaks is attributed with the performance improvement, supported by the flow visualization results.
