Detailed Numerical Study on the Aerodynamic Behavior of a Gurney Flapped Airfoil in the Ultra-low Reynolds Regime

The addition of Gurney flap changes the nature of flow around airfoil by producing asymmetric Von- Karman vortex in its wake. Most of the investigations on Gurney flapped airfoils have modeled the flow using a quasisteady approach, resulting in time-averaged values with no information on the unstead...
