Abstract :
The following study focuses on the simulation of
self-actuated flaps used on the upper surface of the wing
for flow separation control. Previous studied have shown
the effectiveness of such flaps for flow separation control.
The simulation was performed on a rectangular section of
standard NACA 4412 Airfoil with flaps(self-actuated)
attached on the upper surface of the airfoil. The different
configurations of the flaps were simulated. The effect of
such self-actuated flaps on the aerodynamics of the wing
section such as lift and drag was studied. The simulations
were conducted on ANSYS-Workbench 16.
