Aerodynamic study of a small, ducted VTOL aerial vehicle
… with mixed results. Concerns regarding duct aerodynamics led to the proposal for further aerodynamic study to investigate effects of inlet lip radius and surface area, diffuser area ratio, blade tip clearance and rotor position on thrust, power and efficiency. This report covers the theory of …

Aerodynamic Study of Forces due to Wind Velocity and Angle of Attack on Parabolic Solar Troughs
… studies by consequence are as well.</p> <p>This study examines the effects of wind at various speeds, with various angles of attack on parabolic solar troughs. This begins by picking up on previous study, corroborating previously found data, then introduces new angles of attack. The model …

Development and application of an integrated aerodynamic and thermodynamic testing system for cars
In this thesis an integrated aerodynamic and thermodynamic testing system was developed. It consists of an incremental force measuring system (FMS) that was designed and constructed. In addition, a testing protocol was developed to integrate aerodynamic and thermodynamic testing in the climatic …

Reentry Vehicle Aerodynamics and Control at Very High Angle of Attack
… of the drogue parachute. An experimental aerodynamic study has been conducted at the University of Illinois using a scale model of the X-38 to explore the cause of this problem. A six-component sting balance was used to measure the forces and moments on the 4.7% wind tunnel model at angles …
