Wake deceleration of a racecar multielement airfoil in ground effect
The importance of aerodynamic downforce in competitive motorsports has been well established. Much of this aerodynamic downforce is produced from the inverted multielement wings at the front and the rear of the car. While such a high-lift system is capable of producing high downforce as a result of …

The Investigation of Crossflow Velocity and Off-the-Surface Streamtrace Topology for a Moderately Swept Wing at Transonic Mach Numbers
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the crossflow and off-the-surface velocity traces on a moderately swept wing at transonic Mach numbers. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was used to generate the data used to visualize the flow field. This was done for angles of attack of 6, 7, 8 and …

Computational analysis of multielement airfoils for wind turbines
… configurations have shown promise in improving the aerodynamic and structural characteristics of the inboard section of megawatt-scale wind turbine blades by increasing the lift coefficients and lift-to-drag ratios. Steady-state, two-dimensional CFD calculations were carried out for a …
