Experimental results of vortex downstream of a wing

Description

The study shows numerical and experimental results on the motion field due to a NACA 0012 wing in a water stream. The software uses the Runge-Kutta method. The velocity and vorticity fields were assessed with PIV and LDA systems. The movies show a comparison of the numerical and experimental results.

This web site was launched by Prof. Michele Mossa of the Polytechnic University of Bari (Italy) with the initial support of Fondazione Caripuglia, Bari, Italy for the Research Project LIC-MON of 2003 and of the Project IMCA (Integrated Monitoring of Coastal Areas) financed by MIUR PON D.M. 593/00. Later, the initiative was supported with other Prof. Michele Mossa’s funds, most recently provided by the RITMARE Project.
