Measurements of lift fluctuations due to turbulence
The fluctuating lift of a rigid wing in turbulent flow is studied. The power spectra of the lift and of the turbulent fluctuations are measured. From these measurements the aerodynamic admittance of the wing is obtained. The ratio of span/scale of turbulence is varied by means of movable end plates...
