Project Details

Description

Testing and manufacturing of proof-of-concept wireless pressure nanosensors embedded in a turbine blade small-scale replica, which will allow monitoring of dynamic stall effects in real time.

Layman's description

My role in the project involved drafting the fluid mechanics section of the proposal, specifically the description of dynamic stall, as well serving as point of contact with one of our industrial partners. During the project, I conducted two tests of the prototype blade in the water flume at the Sanderson Laboratory.
