What is A Comprehensive Review on Dynamics of Droplet Impact on Airfoil Surface and Its Adverse Impact on Airfoil Performance Characteristics about?

Water droplets descend through the flow field and strike the airfoil surface during hostile conditions of torrential rainfall and icing. Rain affects aircraft performance like any other hazardous weather conditions such as gusts, precipitation, and shear winds. The increment in C D and decrement in C L value denotes the adverse impact of rain on aerodynamic characteristics. The review article describes the intricate mechanism of droplet dynamics which involves splashing of droplets and water film formation on airfoil surface. The changes in flow field characteristics in presence of rain due to fluid and solid interaction are also focused on. Effects of surface wettability and premature boundary layer transition due to boundary layer tripping on aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil are visualized.
