Unsteady Aerodynamics Open Data Set

A selection of four different unsteady aerodynamic experiments have been done to prepare a database which will serve for the analysis, investigation and tool validation of airfoil unsteady behavior of wind turbine blades. The four experiments and selected data are: University of Glasgow dynamic stall experiments: NACA0015 and NACA0030 airfoils tested at sinusoidal type motion of the pitch. NREL OSU experiments: LS(1)0417MOD, NACA4415 and S809 airfoils tested at sinusoidal type motion of the pitch. CENER unsteady airfoil pitching and flapping tests at DTU: NACA643-418 airfoil tested at sinusoidal type motion of the pitch, the flap and combined pitch and flap. ForWind airfoil tests under tailored inflow turbulence: DU00W212 airfoil with laminar flow, open grid condition and one sinusoidal dynamic grid condition.
