Abstract | A new wing-tip concept with morphing upper surface and interchangeable conventional and morphing ailerons was designed, manufactured, bench and wind tunnel tested. The development of this wing tip was done in the frame of an international CRIAQ project, and the purpose was to demonstrate the upper surface morphing and aileron morphing capabilities in improving the wing tip aerodynamic performances. During numerical optimization with ‘in-house’ genetic algorithm software, and during wind tunnel experimental tests, it was demonstrated that the air flow laminar state was extended and drag coefficient reduction were obtained. |
