Numerical calculations on the flow near the plunging airfoil and relation with the flying or swimming animals, birds, fish and insects
We investigated the influence of the airfoil geometry on the performance of the plunging airfoil numerically. In the present study, two circular arc airfoils with the different thickness were used and the numerical calculations were carried out within the laminar flow region to obtain the data of th...
