Abstract |
|
The main objective of this paper is to study the effects of winglet on aerofoil NACA 2415 using CFD. This is to be done by comparing the aerodynamics characteristics which include Drag coefficient (CD), Lift coefficient (CL), and Lift to Drag ratio (L/D) of with and without winglet model. Induced drag can be reduced by using wing-tip device like Winglet. Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model is used for better accuracy around the boundary wall of wing. The geometry of wing models and meshing are carried out by ANSYS 15 software. The computational simulation is carried out by ANSYS FLUENT with low Mach number 0.23 at various angle of attack. The aerodynamic characteristic of wing with and without winglet is to be measured and compared for best aerodynamic characteristics. |
