Aerodynamics and Flow Characteristics of X-45 Delta Wing Planform

Öz

The present experimental work investigates the near surface flow structure and aerodynamic characteristics of X-45 type non-slender delta wing planform using dye visualization, Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (stereo-PIV) and aerodynamic load measurements. The instantaneous images are acquired on the plan-view plane within 5^o≤ a ≤ 20^o to calculate the time-averaged flow data. In order to compare flow structures with other non-slender wing planforms such as delta and lambda, previously presented dye visualization and stereo-PIV results are also provided. It can be concluded that vortical flow with a pair of well-defined LEVs over X-45 develop at very low angles of attack, and form close to the wing surface similar to delta and lambda planforms. The stall occurs at an angle of attack a = 32^o, whereas stalling is evident at relatively lower angles of attack for simple delta wing.
