Failure Analyte of Helicopter Wing: A Study
Abstract: Summarised issued form is description of different failure cases of winged propulsions. Ethic is basic study from usual aircraft powered through rotary wing i.e., helicopters. Rotor wing composes lift capability by spins; otherwise, accessed score is obtained from aerodynamic lift. Rotor spins about an axis so that etiquette is aligned either vertical or side-to-side. Advent of rotary wing aircraft are that used to be practice is to take off and …

Integration of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines into Urban Environments: Feasibility and Design Considerations
Abstract: Abstract This study aims to comprehensively investigate the performance of Savonius rotor wind turbines through a combination of numerical simulations and experimental testing. Initially, 3-dimensional CAD software Solidworks and ANSYS will be utilized to design detailed models of the turbines. Numerical meshes will then be generated around these models using FLUENT software, incorporating the k-ε turbulence model to simulate fluid flow fields. Parameters such as drag coefficient, lift coefficient, pressure …

A Study of The Performance of surface modified NACA 2416 Airfoils at various Angles of Attach at Re80000
Abstract: This study delves into the aerodynamic effects and characteristics of surface-modified NACA 2416 airfoils, placing a greater emphasis on the aerodynamic efficiency of a two-dimensional surface-modified NACA 2416 airfoil under subsonic flow conditions at Re=80000 and various angles of attack (AOAs). The surface-modified airfoils were crafted using CATIA V5, and simulations were conducted in ANSYS Fluent for angles of attack ranging from 0° to 12°.The CFD results encompass a broad …

Modelling and Analysis of Morphing Wing Structure for Variable Camber
Abstract: This study explores the modelling and analysis of a morphing wing with variable camber configurations to observe its aerodynamic characteristics compared to conventional form. The morphing wing is the concept where the shape of the wing is altered mid-flight based on different phases of flight to improve its aerodynamic characteristics. Morphing wing structure designs such as the corrugated and FISHBAC designs were considered for this analysis. The NACA 2412 airfoil …

Analysis of new Floating Offshore Wind Turbine under drag force operation
Abstract: The goal of this paper is the study and analysis of a new type of floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT), which operates under drag force instead of lifting force as the conventional FOWT. We simulate the wind turbine operation modifying the pitch angle to faithfully reproduce the behavior when submitted to waves’ movement. The analysis of the wind turbine performance is developed in a model at laboratory scale to control …

Effect of Leading-Edge Roughness on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of the Wind Turbine blade
Abstract: Leading-Edge Roughness (LER) strongly dictates boundary layer transition and performance degradation on an airfoil operating at transitional Reynolds numbers, an aerodynamic regime where shear-layer stability mechanisms remain highly complex. The wind tunnel experiments were conducted to investigate the aerodynamic impacts of surface roughness applied over 25% of the chord of a NACA 0018 airfoil using two discrete roughness gradations. Surface roughness induces an early boundary layer trip, causing elevated section …

Pick and Place Drone using Primus X Flight Controller
Abstract: The development of an uncomplicated drone for pick-and-place tasks makes this project a superb beginner’s hands-on exercise. The drone is outfitted with an accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and barometric sensors which allows for controlled, stable flight. A Primus X flight controller powers the drone due to these features. The drone is sustained by a battery which drives four geared motor propellers. The gripper is designed in SolidWorks and cut using a …
