Publicación Acceso Abierto New droplet aero-breakup mechanism associated to unsteady flow loading(Elsevier, 2021-02-20) García-Magariño, Adelaida; Sor, Suthyvann; Velázquez, Ángel; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA); Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO)Experimental testing on the unsteady aero-breakup of ethyl alcohol droplets was carried out at the rotating arm facility of INTA. The selection of the working fluid was driven by the need to explore wider ranges of the dimensionless parameters that govern the problem. A model airfoil was attached at the end of a 2.3 m long rotating arm driven by an electric motor. Droplets, whose diameter ranged from 500 mm to 1500 mm, were allow to fall in the path of the airfoil that attained velocities in the range between 30 m/s and 60 m/s. Droplets trajectories and breakup modes were recorded, and a new breakup mode was identified. Its sequence is as follows: 1) the droplet deforms as an oblate spheroid, 2) a bulge appears and grows on its flow facing surface, 3) the droplet thickens in the stream-wise direction; 4) the thickening in the rear part of the droplet develops in the shape of a cone, 5) the cone grows thinner until a finger like shape is formed. Additionally, based on a theoretical model developed by the authors, a comparison has been made between the deformation and breakup onset phases of ethyl-alcohol and water droplets up to the instant of breakup.Publicación Acceso Abierto Micro/Bubble drag reduction focused on new applications(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-06-28) García-Magariño, Adelaida; López Gavilán, Pablo; Sor, Suthyvann; Terroba, Félix; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA)Bubble drag reduction has been shown to be a promising technique for reducing the drag in ships, thus reducing the emission of pollutants and allowing the compliance with the new requirements imposed recently in this respect. Different searches have been conducted in the publications related to this technique, and an increase in interest has been shown, especially in the last decade. In this context, a review of the experimental work related to bubble drag reduction published in the last decade is presented in the present article. The works were classified according to the facility used (towing tank, cavitation tunnel, water channel, Taylor–Couette…), and the main finding are presented. It was found that two new trends in research have arisen, while there are still contradictions in the fundamental basis, which needs further study.Publicación Restringido Aerodynamic optimization over frigate helicopter flight deck by Hangar shape modifications(Elsevier, 2020-11-16) Rafael, Bardera Mora; Matías García, J. C.; García-Magariño, AdelaidaHelicopter operations on frigates imply complex maneuvers for pilots. During the aircraft approach to the frigate, the helicopter rotor is immersed in a changing aerodynamic flow, with high speed and turbulence intensity gradients. This occurs as a consequence of the nonaerodynamic surfaces that compose the frigates and generate detached flow on their decks. Typically, the helicopter operations on frigates are located at the stern. That is, after the superstructure of the ship and just behind the hangar where the helicopter can be hosted. Using a simplified frigate shape model, tests have been carried out at the National Institute of Aerospace Technology’s low-speed wind tunnel by modifying the hangar geometry in a bubble-shaped way to optimize it aerodynamically and improve the flow over the frigate aftdeck. Roof and side walls have been modified by linearA, circular C, and elliptical E geometries. A particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique has been used for obtaining the flow velocity field above and behind the hangars proposed to evaluate the effectiveness of each geometry modification proposed. Finally, a numerical comparison with the PIV results and parameters such as the storage capacity reduction of the hangar due to its geometry change has been carried out.Publicación Acceso Abierto Theoretical model for microbubble drag reduction technique applied to marine propellers(Elservier, 2025-06-15) García-Magariño, Adelaida; Sor, Suthyvann; Rafael, Bardera Mora; López Gavilán, Pablo; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA)An increase in the propeller efficiency could result in a reduction of the contaminant emissions of ships. The reduction of drag by means of injecting microbubbles in the boundary layer of the blade of propeller is first studied in this article based on the fluid mechanics theory and the fundamental knowledge of this recent technique (that is usually applied to the hull of ships instead). A theoretical approach is proposed to evaluate the drag reduction due to the bubbles presence inside the boundary layer. This is a new application of bubbles dynamic to reduce the drag of the blades of the marine propellers, thus increasing their efficiency.Publicación Restringido Experimental and numerical characterization of the Flow around the Mars 2020 Rover(Aerospace Research Central, 2018-04-30) Bardera, Rafael; García-Magariño, Adelaida; Gómez Elvira, J.; Marín Jiménez, M.; Navarro López, Sara; Torres Redondo, J.; Carretero, Sara; Sor, Suthyvann; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA)The investigation of the environmental factors in Mars atmosphere is one of the issues of the NASA’s Mars Exploration Program about the potential for life on Mars. The future Mars 2020 rover will transport the Mars Environmental Dynamics Analyzer dedicated to obtain meteorological data, as well as other objectives, about wind speed and direction. High-quality wind data are required to build mathematical models of the Mars climate; therefore, powerful techniques are necessary to eliminate flow perturbations produced by the rover presence. The aim of this Paper is the characterization of the flow around the Mars 2020 rover, providing a deep insight into the environmental interaction of the Mars wind with the rover. A comparative study between numerical simulations versus wind-tunnel experimental results is conducted trying to investigate the influence of the rover on the flow measured by the Mars Environmental Dynamics Analyzer wind sensors. This study is addressed to perform an assessment of the reliability of numerical methods in the prediction of this kind of flow in Martian conditions, evaluating its capability to be used in the future to correct wind data coming from the Mars 2020 rover mission. The advancements in the numerical methods as compared with experimental results implies an advancement on the calibration methods in the space wind sensor instrumentation carried in the Mars 2020 rover.Publicación Acceso Abierto Interferometric laser imaging for droplet sizing method for long range measurements(Elsevier, 2021-01-15) García-Magariño, Adelaida; Sor, Suthyvann; Muñoz Campillejo, Javier; Rafael, Bardera Mora; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA)A recent appendix in the aircraft regulations comprises testing supercooled large droplets impinging on its surfaces. For those tests, the size and distributions of droplets need to be characterized in icing wind tunnels. In this paper, the applicability of implementation of the “Interferometric Laser Imaging for Droplet Sizing” technique inside a wind tunnel with a 3 m × 2 m open elliptical test section has been discussed. Experiments have been conducted in the laboratory for the discussion at object distance of 1.6 m and 2.29 m and droplets diameters between 360 µm and 850 µm. All the streams were previously characterized by means of the shadowgraph imaging technique. A novel approach of the Interferometric Laser Imaging for Droplet Sizing technique where droplets are not fully defocused to avoid excessive overlapping is presented. Two new image processing approaches provide in general good results as compared to previous methods.Publicación Restringido Droplet breakup criterion in airfoils leading edge vicinity(Aerospace Research Central, 2018-05-07) García-Magariño, Adelaida; Sor, Suthyvann; Velázquez, Ángel; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA); Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO)A new breakup criterion is proposed in this paper for droplets subject to the flowfield generated by an incoming airfoil (that is, the criterion should be applied only to this type of aerodynamics flow). This criterion is based on the study of the characteristic times involved in the problem. These are the characteristic external flowfield variation time and the characteristic droplet deformation time. The criterion takes the shape of an empirical correlation that relates the Weber number at the onset of the breakup to the external flowfield and droplet characteristics. Experimental data on the droplet deformation and breakup tests conducted in a rotating arm facility are used to generate the data used to develop the correlation. Droplets, with diameters in the range of 0.3–3.6 mm, are allowed to fall in the path of an incoming airfoil attached to the end of a rotating arm. Airfoil velocities vary between 50 and 90 m∕s. The airfoil leading-edge radius varies from 0.030 to 0.103 m. Experiments are recorded with a high-speed camera using the shadowgraph illumination technique. The empirical breakup correlation applies to droplets that break in the bag and stamen mode. Some additional limited data on droplets that break in the bag and the shear mode are analyzed to see how they fit into the correlation.Publicación Restringido Mars 2020 Rover Influence on Wind Measurements at Low Reynolds Number(Aerospace Research Central, 2019-02-11) Rafael, Bardera Mora; García-Magariño, Adelaida; Sor, Suthyvann; Urdiales, María del Mar; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA)The Mars 2020 rover is the new vehicle dedicated to the Martian surface investigation. This vehicle will transport Mars Environmental Dynamic Analyzer, the new meteorological station, including two wind sensors installed in the camera mast. An experimental characterization was conducted to investigate the influence of the Mars 2020 rover in the Mars Environmental Dynamic Analyzer wind measurements at low Reynolds numbers. Wind tunnel experiments were conducted using a 1:45th scaled model in a wind tunnel specially designed for these experiments. The velocity was measured using laser Doppler anemometry. A method is proposed in this investigation to calculate a correction factor for the data measurements of wind sensors embarked on rovers dedicated to planetary exploration missions. In particular, the method was applied to wind measurements taken by Mars Environmental Dynamic Analyzer in the Mars 2020 rover using the laser Doppler anemometry measurements, and corrections up to 40% in the velocity magnitude and 23 deg in the deflection angle were found.Publicación Restringido Balance measurements on a frigate type ship model(Elsevier, 2020-10) Rafael, Bardera Mora; García-Magariño, Adelaida; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA)Balance measurements performed by testing sub-scaled ship models determine the global forces and moments acting on the ship, which allows knowing the power required for the ship's movement and provides insight to be applied in the design of the control systems used to steer the ship and to avoid instabilities while sailing. The ship superstructure may produce large separated regions and high air wake turbulence levels resulting in a set of fluctuations of the flow parameters usually determined by measuring velocity or pressure. This paper presents the balance measurement of the aerodynamic forces acting on the ship hull. Aerodynamic forces and moments produced on the ship can be interpreted as an integration of the flow parameters (velocity and pressure distributions) over the ship surface wetted by the air. Balance method provides averaged values and fluctuations of forces coefficients. Aerodynamic environment in the vicinity of a ship is influenced by a large number of factors (atmospheric wind, sea state, ship superstructure, masts, stacks, antennas …) affecting helicopter operations on board ships and their safety during the take-off and landing manoeuvres.Publicación Restringido Droplet ratio deformation model in combination with droplet breakup onset modeling(Aerospace Research Central, 2020-08-25) García-Magariño, Adelaida; Sor, Suthyvann; Velázquez, Ángel; Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA); Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO)Droplet deformation and breakup in the continuously accelerated flowfield generated by an incoming airfoil have been studied. The upper limit of droplet deformation and the minimum distance to the airfoil model at which the breakup onset takes place have been modeled. Three analytical equations have been developed based on the combination of two models: a droplet deformation and trajectory model for droplets in a continuously accelerated flowfield, and a breakup model for droplets in the vicinity of a leading edge of an airfoil model. The verification was made using experimental data obtained for water droplets whose diameters were in the range from 400 to 1800 μm impinging on airfoils of three different chord sizes moving at velocities from 50 to 90 m/s90 m/s. The rotating arm facility at National Institute of Aerospace Technology was used for this purpose. The analytical equations of the model were in good agreement with the experimental data. The upper limit of droplet deformation was verified by 95.40% of the tested experimental cases, and the minimum distance to the airfoil was verified in 99.65% of the cases.
