Abstract | The physical foundations of unsteady thin-airfoil theory are explored in the general framework of viscous flows. The thin-airfoil lift formula is derived by using the simple lift formula that contains the vortex lift and the lift associated with the fluid acceleration. From a broader perspective, the thin-airfoil lift formula could be applicable even when the flow around an airfoil is moderately separated, from which the classical von Karman-Sears lift formula can be recovered as a reduced case. The quantitative relationship between boundary layer and lift generation is discussed. Direct numerical simulations of low-Reynolds-number flows over a flapping flat-plate airfoil are conducted to examine the accuracy and limitations of the thin-airfoil lift formula. |
