Journal ArticleDOI
The structure and development of a wing-tip vortex
TL;DR: In this article, a theory was developed to correct mean-velocity profiles for the effects of wandering and to provide complete quantitative estimates of its amplitude and contributions to Reynolds stress fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perpendicular blade vortex interaction
TL;DR: In this article, the interaction between a streamwise vortex and a spanwise blade was studied in incompressible flow for blade-vortex separations between ± 1/8 chord, and three-component velocity and turbulence measurements were made from 4 chord lengths upstream to 15 chord lengths downstream of the blade using miniature four-sensor hot-wire probes.
Flow visualizations of perpendicular blade vortex interactions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a range of visualizations of the vortex-wing interaction in the VA Tech Stability Tunnel and found that the interaction has no influence on the vortex core.
