Outline of Final Research Achievements

Modern aircrafts fly at the speed of transonic which is a little lower than sonic speed. On this condition, a strong compression wave, a shock wave, sometimes appears and vibrates on the wing because of the turbulence and the change of the flight condition caused by collision avoidance and so on. Since the shock wave vibration is harmful for the aircraft safety, we investigated small vanes, vortex generators (VG), that have ability to suppress the shock wave vibration.
Wind tunnel experiments were conducted to validate the numerical simulation which showed the influence of the wing sweep angle on the VG’s effect. The velocity distributions around a shock wave and a vortex were measured using a particle image velocimetry. The results clearly showed the large low speed region on the up-wash side of the vortex when the wing had no sweep angle. It partially validates the result of the numerical simulation.
