Nonplanar Wing Aerodynamics + Podcast #164
from Premier Aerodynamics Podcast · host Premier Aerodynamics
Nonplanar wings produce much less induced drag than planar wings. In this podcast, we cover how, and why with winglets and spiroid wingtips on wings. CHECK OUT our new OpenFoam CFD course that covers everything from literally installing it to running your own DES simulations, and everything in between: https://premieraerodynamics.com/Courses/ CHECK OUT our new Intermediate CFD course that covers what you need to go into industry and do high quality simulations: https://premieraerodynamics.com/Courses/ Want an easy way to make your experiments 2-4% more accurate?
