Project outline This PhD project will focus on advancing the understanding of the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics of wing mounted, tractor propellers and investigating how the propeller’s flow field interacts with the wing. The research will involve exploring a range of propeller configurations, flight and operating conditions and examining the influence of blade design on […]
Project outline The increasing focus on road vehicle efficiency will drive the development of new aerodynamic vehicle shapes, specifically electric cars. Understanding the impact that these future low drag road vehicle shapes have on aeroacoustic noise generation is critical to 1) increasing levels of vehicle refinement in an increasingly competitive sector, and 2) understanding noise […]
