Lift Enhancement on Unconventional Airfoils

Lift augmentation on airfoils is a critical task to an aerodynamicist when asked to design new wings. Flow visualization studies on a corrugated airfoil confirm that the trapped vortices lead to a modification of the effective wing shape and an increase in lift. Considerable lift enhancement is foun...
