Modeling dynamic stall of SC-1095 airfoil at high mach number

Clark, Brian 26 January 2010 (has links)
In this thesis, the Leishman-Beddoes method of determining airloads for an airfoil undergoing dynamic stall is studied over a range of Mach numbers. To validate the method for conditions where little experimental data is available, a computational fluid dynamics solver is utilized to provide airload predictions for comparison to the Leishman-Beddoes results. It is found that even for high Mach numbers the Leishman-Beddoes method provides reliable predictions for lift coefficient. However, at the higher Mach numbers pitching moment is sometimes overpredicted at high angle of attack. This is seemingly due to an inability to accurately determine the center of pressure in the high speed unsteady flow environment.
