Abstract |
|
The primary complications in the conventional aircraft are the aerodynamics at the interference between fuselage, wing and tail, profile drag and structural complexity in the joints. With the application of flying wing, interference between different members has been almost completely eliminated. The main objective of the present work is to study requirements of tail in conventional aircraft and design requirements of an airfoil for flying wing. Stability of an airfoil with reflex camber line and their disadvantages has also been discussed. |
