内容記述 | Ongoing research has shown that compressible dynamic stall can be caused by vastly different mechanisms even for small changes in flow conditions. For example, at low Mach numbers (M less than 0.3) and Reynolds numbers (less than 1 x 10(exp 6)), the bursting of the laminar separation bubble induces dynamic stall. At a slightly higher Mach number (M = 0.45) and around the same Reynolds number, shock induced separation can cause dynamic stall. Also, the mechanism changes from that of laminar separation bubble bursting to that due to excessive adverse pressure gradient, with increase of Reynolds number. Complex interactions occurring between the local supersonic flow and the bubble lead to another possible mechanism of dynamic stall. Since all these mechanisms may be encountered by a rotor-blade during a single cycle, there is a strong need to devise a reliable flow control method for use under such dramatically varying conditions. Whereas it is a Ali 'Beneficent challenge, identification of the fact that these mechanisms are all in some way related to the airfoil leading edge adverse pressure gradient, has resulted in an effective method of flow control to be described. |
