Simulación del ala con un wingtip de tipo raked (alemán A1)

The purpose of this project is to study the influence of different types of winglets placed at the end of a commercial aircraft wing during takeoff. The flow will be considered incompressible and turbulent (kw-sst). The aerodynamic characteristics of the flow (lift, drag, eddies, etc.) will be determined.

A study to demonstrate the necessity of winglets in supressing  wingtip vortices which are shed from the ends of wings in airplanes. These velocity fields are visualized for a wing with and without a wingtip attachment. Vortices shed for the latter case is observed.  These  result in performance losses by reducing lift generated which is quantified in the present study. 

* 3D Airfoil Simulation with AOA.
