Geometric Parameter Effects on Lift Enhancement of a Circulation-Control Airfoil for Aerodynamically Alleviated Marine Vehicles Under Fixed Ground Effect
Circulation control is an efficient active flow control technique that enhances aerodynamic lift by injecting a tangential jet near the trailing edge, altering the circulation around the airfoil. This study investigates the influence of three key geometric parameters—Coanda surface radius, slot height, and jet angle—on...
