Propulsion Lab – Fluid Dynamics Analysis
- Case background: High‑speed imaging with advanced particle tracking in a water tunnel to capture detailed flow around a flapping wing model.
- Case objective: Quantify particle trajectories, compute 3D volumetric pressure fields, and derive aerodynamic force parameters.
- Other information:
- Several cameras recorded simultaneous wing-surface motion and particle seeding in dense turbulent flow.
- Enabling of calculation of elastic/inertial forces overlaying aerodynamic insights for wing design validation.
