摘要
This study aims to simulate a 2D helicopter SC1095 airfoil under Re=3.92×106 using an SST k-ω turbulence model with transitive correction and overset grid technology for the dynamic stall problem when the helicopter is flying forward. Based on the condition of the pure pitching motion under unsteady free-steam velocity, the effects of phase difference and amplitude on dynamic stall are analyzed when the plunging and lagging motions are superimposed, respectively. Then, the effects of the plunging and lagging motions on the dynamic stall angle are compared. Results show that an increase in the phase difference value during the plunging and lagging motions may advance the occurrence of dynamic stall and increase the lift coefficient peak when amplitude is fixed. When the phase angle is fixed, an increase in the amplitude of the plunging and lagging motions delays the occurrence of dynamic stall and reduces the peak value of the lift coefficient. The effect of plunging motion on the dynamic stall angle of a pure pitching airfoil under unsteady freestream velocity is more dominant than that of the lagging motion. The computation methods and research results in this paper provide reference for the prediction of dynamic stall behavior of airfoil under multi-degree of freedom coupled motions. © 2019, Editorial Department of Journal of HEU.
