Measurement of Vortex Properties During Wing-Vortex Interaction,
Abstract
An experimental investigation of blade-vortex interaction, including the rolling up of the induced vortex sheet is presented. The rolling up process is analyzed in terms of downstream position and blade-vortex spacing. For representation of the problem, a two-dimensional model was used. Flow measurements were made with a hot-wire anemometer. The principles of hot-wire measurements and some measuring techniques are discussed. In determining the circulation, two different methods were applied. The size of the vortex core and more information about the flow behavior inside of the core and near it were obtained.
