Abstract

Recently we enjoy the sport “Ultimate” using flying disc in the world. The flying discs used in this competition have not made in Japan. So, it is expected to develop an alternative supply, the inexpensive and highly efficient flying disc of Ultimate. In this research, the aerodynamic properties of flying disc by fluid forces measurement and Stereo-PIV measurement, CFD analysis were performed. Also, the appropriateness of CFD analysis by comparing fluid coefficients of experiment with that of CFD analysis was verified. A highly efficient flying disk was suggested in this research.
