| Abstract | A wind tunnel investigation of the characteristics of the airwake behind a model of a generic frigate was conducted in the IAR/AAL 2m x 3m low-speed wind tunnel. The wind tunnel simulation incorporated a correctly-scaled atmospheric boundary layer. Measurements of the streamwise and vertical components of airwake velocity were made using a cross hot-film anemometer. Time averages, standard deviations, spectral densities and time correlations are presented for both velocity components for various positions in the airwake. The flow characteristics of the airwake are compared to those of the atmospheric boundary layer. The impact of changes in the flow on rotor loads is discussed in a qualitative sense. |
