Two dimensional turbulent flow simulations on the low Mach number - high Reynolds number flow about the NACA 4412 airfoil are carried out as the airfoil approaches a ground. It has turned out that angle of attack between 2 and 8 degrees is recommended for the airfoil to utilize the benefit of ground effect. For the large angle of attack, the increment of lift due to the ground effect is faded away and negative aerodynamic effect such as destabilizing aspect in static longitudinal stability occurs and the separation point moves to forward as the airfoil approaches a ground.

It has been turned out that angle of attack between 2 and 8 is recommended for the airfoil to utilize the benefit of ground effect. For the large angle of attack, the increment of lift due to the ground effect is eliminated and negative aerodynamic effect such as destabilizing aspect in static longitudinal stability are occurred as the airfoil approaches a ground.

The two-dimensional incompressible and compressible Navier-Stokes codes are developed for the computation of the viscous turbulent flow over high-lift airfoils. Incompressible code using pseudo-compressibility and dual-time stepping method involves a conventional upwind differencing scheme for the convective terms and LU-SGS scheme for time integration. Compressible code also adopts an FDS scheme and LU-SGS scheme. Several two-equation turbulence models (the standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model, the $k-{\omega}$ model. and $k-{\omega}$ SST model) are evaluated by computing the flow over single and multi-element airfoils. The compressible and incompressible codes are validated by computing the flow around the transonic RAE2822 airfoil and the NACA4412 airfoil, respectively. Both the results show a good agreement with experimental surface pressure coefficients and velocity profiles in the boundary layers. Also, the GA(W)-1 single airfoil and the NLR7301 airfoil with a flap are computed using the two-equation turbulence models. The grid systems around two- and three-element airfoil are efficiently generated using Chimera grid scheme, one of the overlapping grid generation methods.

본 연구에서는 높은 양력을 얻기 위하여 플랩 형상 최적 설계를 시도하였다. 플랩 형태는 플랩 중에서 가장 효율이 좋은 파울러 플랩(fowler flap)이다. 플랩 설계는 최적화 기법을 활용하여 진행하였고 최적화의 초기 형상은 general aviation airfoil과 Wentz 등이 개발한 플랩이다. 최적화 방법으로는 반응면 기법 (Response Surface Method)이 사용되었으며, Hicks-Henne 형상함수가 사용되었고, GA(W)-1 익형과 fowler flap이 조합된 형상의 유동장에 대하여 Navier-Stokes 해석을 수행하였다. 상용 최적화 프로그램인 Visual-Doc, 격자 생성 프로그램인 Gambit/Tgrid, 그리고 유동해석에는 Fluent를 이용하였다. 플랩의 윗면 형상과 gap에 대한 최적화를 수행하여 착륙조건에서의 양력이 증가하였다. 초기 형상과 최적화된 형상의 공력특성 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 항우연의 1m 풍동에서 시험을 수행하였다. 최적화된 형상은 대체로 예측치와 비슷한 경향을 보이나, 이른 실속이 관찰되었다. 또한, 날개와 플랩 간의 간격을 설계치보다 좁혀 줌으로써 양력특성이 향상됨을 알 수 있었는데, 이는 설계시 사용된 난류 모델의 영향이라 판단된다.
