This paper describes a three dimensional wing model, which has been developed for the purpose of studying flutter, both computationally and through wind tunnel testing. A three dimensional, laminar flow aerofoil wing, based on the NACA aerofoil has been designed. The natural frequencies for this aerofoil were obtained through modal analysis. A scale model wing, without taper was manufactured in the laboratory and tested in a wind tunnel. The pressure data was obtained from fluid flow analysis and the deformation results obtained through structural analysis. The analysis was performed in the ANSYS Workbench Environment, accessing FLUENT CFX for the computational fluid dynamics analysis and the ANSYS FEA package for the mechanical analysis. The computational results obtained are compared with the experimental data obtained in the wind tunnel. Comparison of the analysis and test results provides further understanding of the flutter characteristics.
