dc.description.abstract | In this study, we focused on the lift generation with a thin rotating plate. The objective of this study is to understand the
appropriate shape and the role of vortex for rotating thin plate. We determined the shape of the plate through free-flight
tests of paper strips and investigated the aerodynamic characteristics of the rotating plate with the selected shape. The
rectangular plate with an aspect ratio 7 was relevant from moment of inertia and bending stress. An endplate on a wing
tip increased the stability on the lateral vortex structure behind the rotating plate. Velocity field measurement by Particle
Image Velocimetry (PIV) showed that the lift force was generated twice in a rotating cycle | en_US |
