The purpose of this study is to identify the possible relation between the vibration and the stall by using the vibration response of the airfoil. For this purpose, the root mean square values of the acceleration signals are evaluated to demonstrate the compatibility between the stall angles and the vibration levels.
An experimental study is conducted on NACA 4415 airfoil at Reynolds numbers 69e3, 77e3 and 85e3. Experiments are performed from 0° to 25° of the angles of attack (AoA) for each Reynolds number condition. To observe the change of the vibration values at the stall region clearly, experiments are performed with the AoA ranging from 10° to 25° in 1° increments. Three acceleration sensors are used to obtain the vibration data.
The results show that the increase in the amplitude of the vibration is directly related to the decrease in lift. These findings indicate that this approach could be beneficial in detecting stall on airfoil-type structures.
This study proposes a new approach for detecting stall over the airfoil using the vibration data.
