Popis: Flows around a leading-edge slat are investigated experimentally at Reynolds numbers Re less than or equal to 5.2 x 10(exp 5). When the slat operates to suppress the leading-edge stall, a periodic vortex shedding occurs due to the instability of laminar wake of the slat at Reynolds numbers less than 2.1 x 10(exp 5). The Reynolds number variation of the shedding frequency is not unlike that of the circular-cylinder wake at low Reynolds numbers. For Re greater than or equal to 2.3 x 10(exp 5), prominent spectral peaks appear both in the velocity fluctuations and sound-pressure and the frequency of such distinguished noise is found to be proportional to U(sub infinity)(exp 0.84) as reported in the experiment on the sound generation in a single-element airfoil at small angles of attack, suggesting a possibility of feedback loop between the shear layer instability immediately upstream the slat trailing-edge and the generated sound.
