02.1 - Aerodynamics - CFD Methods and ValidationAERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTIC COMPARISON OF THE FORWARD AND BACKWARD-SWEPT WINGSR.R. Xue¹, Z.Y. Ye¹, G. Wang¹; ¹Northwestern Polytechnical Univ, China Study on the forward- and backward-swept wing was carried out to compare the differences of the aerodynamic performance and the physical mechanism which generated the difference was further found out through the comparisons of different momentum fluxes and forces's integrals at specific surfaces around the wings, which may lead to a better understanding the forward-swept wings' flow mechanism. |
