Numerical Simulation of Bionic Wing for Drag Reduction

Article Preview

Abstract:

According to the presence of the rounded protuberances or tubercles located on the leading edge, a similar leading edge of humpback whale pectoral fin with the “paraganglioma” has been made on the leading edge of NACA63-210 wing, an bionic NACA63-210 airfoil is designed with convex-concaved leading edges, and the 3-dimensional flows around the bionic wing are simulated for the drag reduction purpose.
