Flow Separation Control in Hydrofoils by elson.study.work is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document presents an experimental study on using leading-edge tubercles to control flow separation on hydrofoils at low Reynolds numbers. Particle image velocimetry and flow visualization techniques were used to analyze the flow around hydrofoils with tubercles. The results showed that tubercles generate counter-rotating vortex pairs along the leading edge that help delay flow separation. Larger tubercle amplitudes and smaller wavelengths performed better, though the vortex pairs occasionally led to uns
