Computational Investigation of Incompressible Airfoil Flows at High Angles of Attack

Abstract

Cebeci's viscous/inviscid interaction program was applied to the analysis of steady, two dimensional, incompressible flow past four airfoils, the NACA 66 sub 3-018, 0010 (Modified), 4412 and the Wortmann FX 63-137. Detailed comparisons with the available experimental results show that the essential features are correctly modelled, but that significant discrepancies are found in regions of flow separations.
