Analysis of Ship Airwakes Using Modal Decomposition
… produced by a scaled model of a generic Navy ship (Simple Frigate Shape No. 2) was investigated in a low-speed wind tunnel. Stereoscopic, time-resolved particle image velocimetry (TR-PIV) measurements were made at six different crosswise planes over the flight deck region of the ship model, …

Time-Resolved PIV Measurements of Ship Airwakes with Quartering Winds
… turbulent airwake over the Simple Frigate Ship No. 2 (SFS2) with quartering wind flow directions was studied in a low-speed wind tunnel facility. Surface oil flow visualization and time-resolved stereoscopic and planar particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements were made for three …

A Study of Ship Airwakes Using Dual Plane Stereoscopic PIV
… to rotorcraft operations in the vicinity of ships were chosen to carry out this conditional analysis.</p> <p>Conditionally averaged statistics of the large vertical fluctuations in the shear layer over the flight deck revealed sharp velocity gradients as well as large-scale flow features …

Contributions to the Understanding of Ship Airwakes Using Advanced Flow Diagnostic Techniques
… flows produced by the superstructure of a ship, which is referred to as an airwake. This problem is relevant and important because the turbulent airwake significantly and adversely affects the ability for rotorcraft to operate safely from the decks of Navy ships. To this end, a series of …
