Abstract
An experimental study is conducted on a NACA0012 airfoil with a control surface to investigate an influence of a propeller slipstream under low Reynolds number condition. To investigate the influence of the propeller slipstream on a wing surface, a flow field on the wing surface is visualized using the Temperature-Sensitive Paint at the chord-based Reynolds number of 3.0×104. Control surface performance improves in the propeller installed condition because laminar separation bubble is suppressed by the propeller slipstream. Finally, we suggest the propeller should be installed ahead of the control surface to use the effect of the propeller slipstream under low Reynolds number flight condition.
