1 New Airfoil in LM s Wind Tunnel: High Efficiency and Roughness Insensitivity Christian Bak, Helge A. Madsen, Mac Gaunaa, Peter B. Andersen, Mads Døssing Risø DTU Peter Fuglsang, Stefano Bove LM Glasfiber
2 Outline Motivation Design Measurement setup Results Conclusions Risø DTU, Technical University of Denmark
3 Motivation A new airfoil series have been designed at Risø DTU because we have learned several lessons from three airfoil series designed from 998 to (Risø-A, Risø-P and Risø-B) :. Roughness insensitivity is very important. High aerodynamic efficiency is very important 3. A relatively high stiffness of the airfoil sections is important 4. A high compatibility between different airfoil sections is important Additionally, some important questions have arised:. What happens to the airfoil performance for different turbulence intensities?. How does the small scale turbulence behave? 3. Are the models for predicting transition from laminar to turbulent flow trustworthy? 3 Risø DTU, Technical University of Denmark
4 Design strategy CL High max. lift High lift in post-stall to ensure smooth stall Transition to turbulent flow close to LE: Roughness insensitive Design for max. Lift-Drag-ratio Reduced min. lift α Design for high compatibility between airfoil thicknesses Design for high stiffness 4 Risø DTU, Technical University of Denmark
5 Design result Design objectives of new airfoils similar to Risø-B High maximum lift Insensitivity to roughness High compatibility Design objectives of new airfoils differing from Risø-B Increased stiffness Slightly higher compatibility High aerodynamic efficiency Reduced minimum CL 5 Risø DTU, Technical University of Denmark

17 Conclusions Design objectives of new airfoils similar to Risø-B High maximum lift - OK Insensitivity to roughness - OK High compatibility - OK Design objectives of new airfoils differing from Risø-B Increased stiffness - OK Slightly higher compatibility - OK High aerodynamic efficiency - OK Reduced minimum CL not entirely OK (probably caused by transition modelling for negative angles of attack) It is possible to design roughness insensitive airfoils which - without leading edge roughness - show high lift-drag ratio XFOIL and the e n transition model seems to predict the transition point well on the Risø airfoils for positive angles of attack Investigation of the influence of turbulence will be carried on. 7 Risø DTU, Technical University of Denmark
