- Summary:
- The objective of the paper is to enhance the aerodynamic performance of an aircraft wing using the injectionsuction method. This method utilizes simulation techniques based on the Reynolds-averaged NavierStokes (RANS) equations with a k-epsilon turbulence model solver. The results of the simulations demonstrate a significant improvement in the wing's performance, with a 33% increase in the stalling angle and a 10% enhancement in the lift coefficient compared to the baseline airfoil. The drag value is decreasing up to 40% depending on the angle of attack. The novelty of this proposed method was in the strategic placement of injection and suction. Injection is applied over the top airfoil at the separation point, while suction is applied at the midsection of the bottom airfoil. This configuration optimizes the aerodynamic flow over the wing, leading to improved performance metrics of lift coefficient and stall angle. This concept has potential applications in subsonic fixed-wing aircraft, offering benefits such as enhanced performance and reduced weight
