03.1 - Aerodynamics - CFD Methods and ValidationNUMERICAL DEVELOPMENT OF UNSTEADY VORTEX-LATTICE METHOD EXPANSION FOR LEADING-EDGE SHEDDING PREDICTION WITH EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATIONT.P. Monteiroš, K. Ramesh, Glasgow University, United Kingdom; F. Silvestreš; šInstituto Tecnologico de Aeronautica, Brazil The unsteady Vortex-Lattice Method has been used successfully used for these cases, but it lacks the ability to model leading-edge stall. This work shows the development of an expanded UVLM, capable of predicting leading-edge vortex shedding. The model is validated against experimental wind-tunnel test results for prescribed movement and Limit-Cycle Oscillations on a flat plate. |
