Comparison of Flow-Visualised Vortices with Computed Geometry Over Thin Delta Wings

摘要

The vortex flow patterns over thin delta wings were photographed during experiments in a vertical water tunnel making use of appropriate flow visualization techniques. The flow geometry for these wings was also calculated using the VORSBA vortex flow computer program. A comparison is made between the calculated and experimental results and discrepancies between them are discussed.
