Aerodynamic Characteristics of an Airfoil with Boundary Layer Ingestion in Subsonic Flow

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of boundary layer ingestion (BLI) on the aerodynamics of airfoil RAE2822 in subsonic is investigated by numerical method. Based on the calculation, it is found that the mass flow ratio (MFR), intake height, cowl length and intake position in the chord can affect on the lift, drag and pitching moment remarkable. Considering a maximum lift-over-drag, intake position in the chord should be rearward as possible with a certain high MFR at a small angle of attack and a considerable intake height. There is a proper MFR which makes drag lowest.
