Numerical Investigation of the Unsteady Adaptive Wall Models in the Unsteady Wind Tunnel Testing

비정상유동 실험시의 비정상 적응벽면 모델의 수치적 연구

The adaptive wall test section has distinct advantage over the other devices for reduction of wall interference in the wind tunnel testing. For two-dimensional steady flows the wall adaption strategy has been well established and, in some extent, has been effectively applied to three-dimensional steady flows. For unsteady testing, the wall adaptation is conceptually possible but has never been realized in the wind tunnel experiment. In this study, relatively simple adaptive wall models have been proposed and evaluated through numerical tests. The effect of Mach number, frequency, and amplitude of pitching oscillation on the wall interference reduction has been also studied.
