Meshing and CFD Simulations of High-Lift Devices Design in a Turboprop Aircraft

As an environmentally friendly means of transport, turboprop aircraft can save fuel up to 20% compared to turbofan aircraft. However, some traditional high-lift devices such as slotted leading edge flaps will not be suitable for turboprop engines due to the smoothness requirement at the upper surface. Therefore, a flexible leading edge design that can be drooped during take off and landing is introduced. The CFD analysis in this project is presented to study the effect of morphing devices for the drooped wing leading edge, geometry morphed flaps and winglets. The study was performed within the project WTM-RECYCLE, which received funding from the…
