Simulation of flapping wing
This research’s objective is to present the application of Reynolds Stress Model (RSM) for evaluating the performance of flapping wing aerodynamic using Fluent. It also made a detail investigation on the parameters that influence the airfoil during the oscillating movement. The investigation begins...
