Developments for a Swept Wing Airfoil to Study the Effects of Step and Gap Excrescences on Boundary Layer Transition
Skin friction drag reduction is one of the most promising paths in the investigation of the reduction of aircraft fuel burn. 40 – 50% of overall drag comes from the surfaces of the wings and stabilizers. Natural laminar flow airfoils can extend the region of laminar flow and reduce skin friction dra...
