| Description | The aerodynamic characteristics of highly sweptback wings with separations induced vortex flows have been numerically investigated using the free vortex sheet method, developed by Boeing Company, under a contract with NASA/Langley Research Center. The models studied included delta and straked wings, and wings with leading edge extensions. Also, PAN-AIR code has been used to design a fixed leading edge extension into a thick delta wing. The theoretical results predicted have been compared with the experimental data wherever available, and the code capabilities and limitations explored. New fuselage effects also have been considered in some cases. |
