DESCRIPTION:Aerospace design engineers are being pushed to invent greener 
 and more efficient technologies. The next generation of turbofan engines a
 ims to drastically reduce carbon emissions by improving propulsive efficie
 ncy. To achieve this\, low fan pressure ratio\, large-engine technology ha
 s been developed. These new fans require slimmer\, sharper\, and lower-dra
 g intakes with reduced weight\, which are at risk of boundary layer separa
 tion under aerodynamically challenging conditions. One particularly proble
 matic condition is the crosswind encountered during runway operations. Thi
 s talk presents a simplified experimental approach to studying the complex
  flow field that forms around a turbofan engine’s intake under strong cr
 osswind conditions.
