Abstract

Wing aircraft is one of the major components to generate lift, in today's energy shortage, design the high lift-to-drag ratio wing is the goal pursued by, The author in the exploration of bionic airfoil aerodynamic characteristics on the basis of, which will be applied to straight wing design so as to improve the aerodynamic performance of aircraft.Our research mainly includes two aspects: first, the use of imitation seagull airfoil and NACA4412 airfoil are designed into the straight wing. The use of FLUENT software in Re=300000condition carries on the numerical simulation results show that the ratio of gull wing airfoil than NACA4412 lift coefficient increased by 13%, while the lift to drag ratio,is improved by 46.83%. Then, using the similarity principle, the wing scale, was tested in a wind tunnel test, the results obtained with the simulation are consistent. Airfoil design for the design of high performance wing opened a new way.
