Comparison of numerically simulated pressure on the surface of a fluttering profile with experiment in wind tunnel

Abstract

Results of finite element numerical simulation of flow in a wind tunnel coupled with structural model of airfoil flow induced vibrations are compared with experimental results obtaind in a wind tunnel. The agreement is very good.
