Vortex Interactions Between Chined Forebody and Strake

Impact of Planform and Control Surfaces on the Vortical Flow Topology and Roll Stability of a Multi Delta Wing Configuration

“…Additional experimental investigations on vortex interaction control on a chine forebody delta wing is given by Rao [6,7] and the effect of a leading edge flap by Rao and Puram [8]. Malcolm [9] is giving a progress review on forebody vortex control and more recent investigations by Ma and Deng [10] and Zhan and Wang [11] giving an overview about the effect of forebody and leading edge strake as well as the effect of an apex flap on the vortex formation over a delta wing configuration. Additional publications on forebody or chine vortices on delta wing configurations are experimental investigations given by Sohn et al [12,13] who provide the basic flow physics of forebody vortices on a double delta wing.…”
