内容記述 | The most promising method of achieving significantly lower skin-friction drag of an aircraft component is through the stabilization and maintenance of a laminar boundary layer over a large fraction of its surface. In a number of applications, however, laminar flow is unfeasible and/or undesirable, and the most efficient turbulent flow design must be provided. The development of both laminar and turbulent airfoil and wing designs over the past decade is reviewed. High, medium, and low-speed airfoil concepts are discussed, and some overall comparisons are made for different Reynolds number ranges. |
