The Junior Research Group “Physics of Laminar Wing and Fuselage” (JRG-B1) is part of the core research area “Flight Physics and Vehicle Systems” within the Center of Excellence SE2A-Sustainable and Energy-Efficient Aviation. The research activity focuses on applying hybrid laminar flow control (HLFC) by suction means on transport aircraft. Main objectives are:
Research Question: How much laminar flow can be obtained on the wings and fuselage? And how to translate the BL requirements for laminarization into suction-based system design?
Strategy: A novel wing design for optimal pressure distribution will be developed. First, an optimal airfoil with suction BL will be designed for un-swept wings of a short-range aircraft. The research will be extended to the design of higher-speed airfoils with suction, for medium-range aircraft with transonic swept wings. A combined numerical, experimental work will be performed.
