Beschreibung:
Spoilers are used as an effective control surface in various stages of flight. The steady and unsteady flow characteristics change with incidence and spoiler angle. An experimental investigation is undertaken to understand the flow phenomena. Typical boundary layer and wake profiles at various incidences and spoiler angles are presented and discussed. A laminar separation is observed at low incidence and high spoiler angle. At incidence, a turbulent boundary layer develops and separation point moves downstream. Generally the wake profiles are asymmetric. When different length scales are used, the profiles become self-similar and symmetric. The importance of laser velocimetry in the reverse flow region is demonstrated by comparing the preliminary LDV measurements with the hot-wire results.
