(2012-07-16)The aerodynamic benefits of laminar flow have long made it a sought-after attribute in aircraft design. By laminarizing portions of an aircraft, such as the wing or empennage, significant reductions in drag could be ...
-
(2012-08-23)Laminar flow control holds major promise for increasing aircraft efficiency and increasing laminar flow over aerodynamic surfaces could decrease drag by up to 30 percent. The Flight Research Lab at Texas A&M University has ...
