The aerodynamics of Manduca sexta: digital particle image velocimetry analysis of the leading-edge vortex.

The aerodynamics of Manduca sexta: digital particle image velocimetry analysis of the leading-edge vortex.

Here we present the first digital particle image velocimetry (DPIV) analysis of the flow field around the wings of an insect (the tobacco hawkmoth Manduca sexta, tethered to a 6-component force-moment balance in a wind tunnel). A leading-edge vortex (LEV) is present above the wings towards the end o...
