It is shown that the leading-edge tubercles can effectively mitigate flow separation in the model and also reduce the contribution of wake vortex to the fluctuating energy of flow. Counter-rotating vortex pairs (CVPs) initiated from the peak of leading-edge tubercles can promote nearby momentum exchange, enhance mixing of the flow and increase the energy contained in the boundary layer, which results in resisting the larger adverse pressure gradient. Therefore, it is concluded that CVPs play an important role in mitigating the flow separation for wings with leading-edge tubercles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46902,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47577878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
