This paper focuses on aerodynamic characteristic ofaircraft wing with and without winglet at low subsonic flow.NACA 653-218 profile was applied on four models including elliptical, semicircular and straight winglet. CFD analysis was performed to compare the lift to drag ratio in these models. Spallart Allmarus turbulence model and 3D unstructured tetrahedral mesh was used to compute the flow around the winglet prototype. It was found that elliptical winglet gave maximum lift to drag ratio.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
