Investigation of the Flow Topology around a Simplified Two-wheel Landing Gear with Emphasis on the Stagnation Point

Experiments were conducted in a recirculating water channel to determine the flow topology around a simplified two-wheel landing gear model. Both hydrogen bubble visualization and Particle Image Velocimetry techniques were employed. The Reynolds number based on wheel diameter was 32,500. The general...
