Compared with Fixed-wing and Rotating-wing, Flapping wing have integrated functions like lifting ,hovering and driving, but there are some technical difficulties on the development of Flapping wing now. This paper is on the aerodynamical problems of rigid Flapping wing at Low Reynolds Number, and make contributions to lift generating mechanism. The result shows that the rigid Flapping wing will generate lift under the conditions of non-zero angle-of-attack and non-zero free stream.
Keywords:Flapping wings ornithopter; Shedding vortex; Lift generating mechanism; PIV
