Leading edge vortex modeling and its effect on propulsor performance

A novel numerical method solves the VIScous Vorticity Equation (VISVE) in 3D in order to model the Leading Edge Vortex (LEV) of propellers is proposed and implemented in this dissertation. The spatial concentration of the vorticity is exploited in the method, which is designed to be spatially compac...
