Abstract

Airfoil is a fundamental geometry in designing various aerodynamic objects. Passive flow control installation is essential in determining the airfoil's aerodynamic performance. The influence of variations in slat size as a passive flow control instrument is analyzed using the CFD method with a Reynold number of Re= 10^6. NACA 6641 airfoil was used as the slat geometry with size variations of 10%c and 16%c. Based on the computational results, variations in slat size have a substantial influence on the aerodynamic efficiency of the airfoil. Variations in slat size additional Cl ability to reach 20.6043% and 13.1917%, respectively. In addition, a 16%c slat can delay a stall until it reaches AoA ≥ 19°. Meanwhile, a 10%c slat can delay a stall until it reaches AoA ≥ 17°. However, variations in slat size also affect the resulting drag force. Slat measuring 16%c can addition Cd up to 50.9252%. Meanwhile, 10% c slat additional Cd up to 21.8389%. Based on the resulting lift-to-drag ratio curve, a 10%c slat has the lowest lift-to-drag ratio compared to a 16%c slat. However, a 10%c slat has the highest level of stability when compared to a 16%c slat installation and without a slat installation.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of variations in the micro geometry with various forms as passive flow control devices on the aerodynamic capability of the airfoil. Micro-cylinder, micro-slat, and micro-cube are installed close to the leading edge of the NACA 4415 airfoil as a micro geometric variation of passive flow control devices with a predetermined diameter of 3% c located at coordinates x= 0% c and y= 8 %c of the leading edge of the airfoil. The Reynolds number used in this study is Re = with AoA variations from 0°-30°. This study's results show a decrease in Cl of 12% with a micro-cylinder, 26% with a micro-slat, and 28% with a micro-cube. In addition, the Cd produced by using the variation of the device micro geometry has increased significantly. Thus, the final result is a lift-to-drag ratio of more petite than the without micro. In the streamlined contour shown when the airfoil is at a high angle of attack, the use of micro geometric variations of passive flow control devices can have an effect that causes reduced recirculation that occurs in the airfoil. However, the impact of these devices is not optimal, resulting in a reduction in the aerodynamic capability of the NACA 4415 airfoil.
