02.2 - Experimental AerodynamicsEXPERIMENATAL AND COMPUTATIONAL STUDY OF GROUND EFFECT ON AIRFOIL SECTIONZ. Pátekš, P. Vrchotaš, J. Cervinkaš; šVZLU Aerospace Research and Test Establishment, Czech Republic An airfoil approaching towards the ground for wide range of distances, including very low) and wide range of angles of attack was studied. The study was focused not only on the well-known positive effects of the ground proximity but was focused mainly on the less-known phenomena that can unfavourably influence the take-off and landing of the light aircraft. |
