Drag Reduction by Wingtip-Mounted Propellers in Distributed Propulsion Configurations
Tip-mounted propellers can increase wing aerodynamic efficiency, and the concept is gaining appeal in the context of hybrid electrical propulsion for greener aviation, as smaller and lighter electrical motors can help with mitigating structural drawbacks of a tip engine installation. A numerical stu...
