Investigation and Improvement of Stall Characteristic of High-Lift Configuration without Slats by Zhao Yang, Jie Li, Jing Jin, Heng Zhang, Youxu Jiang

“…Focusing on the low-speed stall and poststall conditions, we investigated the aerodynamic characteristics and flow mechanism of high-lift configuration without slats using an improved delayed detached eddy simulation (IDDES) model which is validated by numerical simulations of the Common Research Model (CRM). Based on the analysis of the calculated results, conclusion can be made that the stall behavior of the configurations is directly related to the onset and evaluation of flow separation on the suction side. …”
