Zusammenfassung:In the present study, numerical simulation of the flow field of the tubercled NACA0021 (National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics) wing has been conducted with the large eddy simulation model. Then, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) analysis has been carried out at trough and peak sections. According to the spatial distributions and temporal coefficients in the case of α A = 5 °, the physical backgrounds of corresponding POD modes could be identified, including flow attachment, separation, and the dynamic stall vortex (DSV). The onsets of local dynamic stall could be indicated with the extremum values of the DSV mode coefficients, which stay almost synchronized at trough and peak. Actually, the DSV is originally generated at trough and then moves to peak due to the spanwise convection induced by streamwise vorticity. The generation of the secondary vortex at trough is triggered with the streamwise pressure gradient, the development of which pinches off the feeding vorticity of the DSV and results in the detachment of the DSV. Eventually, the influence of pitching amplitude has also been discussed. The strength of the DSV at peak is increased with a larger pitching amplitude, which could be interpreted with the feeding sheet connected with the leading edge.
