Investigations into the operational effectiveness of hybrid laminar flow control aircraft

Hybrid Laminar Flow Control (HLFC) is an active drag reduction technique that permits extended laminar flow on an aircraft surface at chord Reynolds numbers normally associated with turbulent flow. The operational effectiveness of HLFC aircraft relates to the probability of a partial or complete los...
