Abstract A computational study has been conducted on various airfoils to simulate flows at low Reynolds numbers
17,000 and 21,000 with Mach number changes from 0.25 to 0.85 to provide understanding and guidance for
Mars rotory wing designs. The computational fluid dynamics tool used in this study is a Reynolds-averaged
Navier–Stokes solver with a transition model (k-ω SST γ-Reθ). The airfoils investigated in this study include
NACA airfoils (4, 5, and 6% camber), UltraThin airfoils, and thin cambered plates (3% camber, but various
maximum camber locations). Airfoils were examined for lift and drag performance as well as surface
pressure and flow… More >
