Aerodynamic Behavior of the X-56A Airfoil During Oscillatory Plunging Motion

The effects of structural motion on the aerodynamics of the X-56A airfoil are investigated experimentally. An oscillatory plunging mechanism provides a sinusoidal plunging motion. The static aerodynamic characteristics of the X-56A airfoil model are verified against computational results from XFLR5...
