Trimmed noncoplanar planforms with minimum vortex drag
Abstract
Vortex-lattice subsonic method determines mean camber surface for trimmed noncoplanar planforms with minimum vortex drag. Multiple surfaces can be designed together to yield trimmed configuration with minimum induced drag at some specified lift coefficient. Program is applicable to isolated wings, wing-canard configuration, tandem wing, and wing-winglet configuration.
