Further Study of 'Pop-Up' Vortex GeneratorsThe model is a replica of a modified MAX-103 kit aircraft that our Parks College of St. Louis University Student Design Group built and modified from a tail wheel to a tricycle configuration. A model was tested in the Parks College low-speed wind tunnel. I hope to initiate flight-testing upon my second return to. St. Louis. The combined data using wind tunnel, water tunnel, RC, flight-testing and analytical results will be very valuable for assessing the correlation between the different methods of analyses, since at present it is almost impossible to accurately predict flight characteristics from anything but in-situ tests. Unfortunately, political/financial reasons dictated using a generic wing rather than a specific model in the NASA-DFRC water tunnel.
