Abstract

Summary: Little is known about the detailed flow on the upper surface of aerofoils, prone to trailing edge separation, during the process of dynamic stall. The present report describes a method whereby the pressure gradient on the trailing edge upper surface of a given aerofoil may be modified to either enhance or reduce such separations, for a given section, whilst retaining the leading edge pressure distribution.
