It is known that an oscillating airfoil can Produce a driving force through the generation of a reversed $K\'{a}rm\'{a}n$ vortex street, and this can be expected to be a new highly effective propulsion system. The wake formation behind the heaving airfoil was visualized and was measured using PIV systems We have been examined various conditions such as frequency number, amplitude in NACA 0010. As Strouhal number is greater than 0.08. wake profile with velocity deficit can be transformed into the wake with velocity excess After evaluating vortex center flow patterns in the wake investigated using tracking trajectories in temporal evaluation of the shedding vortices. We also Presented the experimental results on the unsteady vortices structure of the heaving airfoil at various parameters.

A Flapping foil Produces an effective angle of attack, resulting in a normal force vector with thrust and lift components, and it can be expected to be a new highly effective propulsion system. A heaving foil model was made and it was operated within a circulating water channel at low Reynolds numbers. The unsteady thrust and lift acting on the heaving foil were measured simultaneously using a 6-axis force sensor based on force and moment detectors. We have been examined various conditions such as heaving frequency and amplitude in NACA 0010 Profile. The results showed that thrust coefficient and efficiency increased with reduced frequency and amplitude. We also Presented the experimental results on the unsteady fluid forces of a heaving foil at various Parameters.
