Experimental investigation of the flow over IIUM-MAV using six component balance test and particle image velocimetry

The main purpose of this project was to study the aerodynamic performance of IIUM-micro aerial vehicle (IIUMMAV7) using six components balance and flow visualization using PIV system. The experimental model of Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) shaped like cropped delta wing was designed, fabricated and teste...
