Active flow control for helicopter fuselage drag reduction

Significant drag reductions were observed for the 3 different types of actuations tested. A wide parametric study allowed most promising control scheme to be identified. It was in particular demonstrated that such drag reductions were achievable for a wide range of angles of attack by combining several control schemes.

McLaren v Aerodynamics: Another P12 teaser
September 14th, 2012 // Posted in McLaren

McLaren has given us another look at its “next chapter” with this new video. There’s no voiceover with the clip and no text of any merit to accompany the press release. All they say is the clip “shows trails of light travelling over a seemingly invisible form, with the airflow creating a dynamic shape with dramatic visual effect.”
