Investigation on flow structure and aerodynamic characteristics over an airfoil at low Reynolds number—A review

This Review summarizes the progress in research on the flow structure and aerodynamic characteristics of an airfoil at a low Reynolds number encountered by near-space low-speed aircrafts and micro-air vehicles. The structures of several kinds of laminar separation bubbles and their effect are discus...
