Experimental Investigation of Pressure Distribution on the Surface of a Supercritical Airfoil in Transonic Regime, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Soltani, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
Transonic flow study is important due to its vast applications. Supercritical airfoils are designed for transonic flow to postpone drag divergence and reduce the strength of shock. This type of airfoils are chiefly used in modern commercial airplanes because of their low drag in transonic regime and, as a result, reduction in their fuel consumption. Using supercritical airfoils needs accurate investigation of flow field due to several influential factors such as specific geometry, nonlinear nature of flow phenomena, and compressibility effects. However, the availability of experimental and numerical data for supercritical airfoils is less than that of the conventional ones. Thus,...
