Observation and measurements of flow structures in the stagnation region of a wing-body junction

The behavior of a junction vortex formed around an obstacle in a boundary layer flow was studied experimentally in a water tunnel for two low speed cases. A wing consisting of a 3 : 2 elliptical nose and an NACA 0020 tail was used to simulate the junction vortex. A visual study using a hydrogen bub...
