Özet:

 This article is focused on the flow behavior observed using the surface oil visualization method on a wing model consisting of four airfoils. In this way, it is aimed to contribute to the insufficient number of literature studies in which flow behaviors are examined by visualization in the wing model consisting of different profiles. The flow behaviors on the surface of the wing and the surface of airfoils forming the wing are presented at three different Reynolds numbers 2x105, 3x105 and 4x105 and a range of distinct attack angles ranging from 0 to 40 degrees. The tests were applied in a low-speed wind tunnel. After the surface imaging experiments, separation point, reattachment point, and bubble length values reflecting flow behavior were measured for the wing and each airfoils. The flow on surface was trying to transition from laminar to turbulent at angles of attack between 0-16 degrees and the turbulent flow attempted to spread or reattach over the entire surface at between 24-40 degrees. Increasing of the angle of attack and Reynolds number led to reducing the xc values numerically, weakening the surface separation bubble, and inducing it to shift towards the leading edge. In terms of xc value, the wing model generally follows a trend close to airfoil B at 0 and 8 degrees and close to airfoil A at 16 degrees. Additionally, the flow behaviors on the wing model are similar to airfoils A and B in terms of the flow phenomena.

 Bu makalede, yüzey yağ görselleştirme yöntemi kullanılarak dört farklı profilden oluşan bir kanat modeli üzerinde akış davranışları incelenmiştir. Kanadın ve kanadı oluşturan profillerin yüzeyindeki akış davranışları üç farklı Reynolds sayısında 2x105, 3x105 ve 4x105 ve 0 ile 40 derece arasında değişen farklı hücum açılarında sunulmaktadır. Deneyler düşük hızlı bir rüzgâr tünelinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yüzey görüntüleme deneylerinden elde edilen ve akış davranışını yansıtan ayrılma noktası, yeniden bağlanma noktası ve kabarcık uzunluğu değerleri sunulmuştur. 0-16 derece arasındaki hücum açılarında yüzeydeki akış laminerden türbülansa dönüşmeye çalışırken, türbülanslı akış ise 24-40 derece arasındaki hücum açılarında tüm yüzeye yayılmaya ya da yeniden tutunmaya çalışmaktadır. Hücum açısının veya Reynolds sayısının artması xc değerlerinde sayısal olarak azalmaya neden olmuş, yüzey ayrılma balonunu zayıflatmış ve hücum kenarına doğru kaymasına neden olmuştur. Xc değeri açısından kanat modeli genel olarak 0 ve 8 derecede B profiline, 16 derecede ise A profiline yakın bir trend izlemektedir. Ayrıca kanat modelindeki akış davranışları, akış fenomenleri açısından A ve B profillerine benzediği görülmüştür.
