Mean Loading and Turbulence Scale Effects on the Surface Pressure Fluctuations Occurring on a NACA 0015 Airfoil Immersed in Grid Generated Turbulence

Detailed surface pressure measurements have been made on a NACA 0015 immersed in two grid generated homogenous flows at Re = 1.17 x 10^6 for a = 0°, 4°, 8°, 12°, 16°, and 20°. The goal of this measurement was to reveal and highlight mean loading and turbulence scale effects on surface pressur...
