Effect of spanwise blowing on leading-edge vortex bursting of a highly swept aspect ratio 1.18 delta wingAn investigation was conducted in the Langley 1/8-scale V/STOL model tunnel on a semispan delta wing with a leading-edge sweep of 74 deg, to determine the effectiveness of various locations of upper surface and reflection plane blowing on leading-edge vortex bursting. Constant area nozzles were located on the wing upper surface along a ray swept 79 deg, which was beneath the leading-edge vortex core. The bursting and reformation of the leading-edge vortex was viewed by injecting helium into the vortex core, and employing a schlieren system.
