Short summary
The growing interest in high-velocity physics justifies research into new experimental aerodynamics. Our work provides the knowledge foundations for the next generation of large wind turbine rotors, investigating the FFA-W3-211 airfoil. We highlight airfoil-dependent static and dynamic results from a large-scale wind tunnel experiment. The results delve into the force enhancement due to dynamic oscillations, broken down by Reynolds number and reduced frequency.
