Scientists show a bionic approach combining features of a seagull's wing with an engineered flow control accessory, known as a Gurney flap, can greatly improve wind turbine performance. To achieve the ...
Researchers attached covert feather-inspired flaps to a 3D-printed model airplane wing and mounted it in a wind tunnel to explore the role of covert feathers in bird flight. By precisely measuring how ...
WASHINGTON, March 22, 2022 -- Wind energy relies on efficient wind turbine blades, which act as airfoils, structures akin to an airplane wing. Air flow control accessories similar to those found in ...
