The winglet design for blended wing body (BWB-UAV) using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach [PDF]
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are unmanned aircraft that can fly from long distances using remote control or flying with an autonomous system. Blended Wing Body (BWB) is one of the UAVs being developed. In this research, the angle of the winglet and air velocity is varied to performance of the BWB-UAV lift force (Lift), drag force (drag) and moment ...
