PARAMETRIC AERODYNAMIC STUDY OF LEADING-EDGE SERRATIONS ON WING SECTIONS ACROSS REYNOLDS NUMBERS

J.J. Whittaker, University of New South Wales, Australia

This paper maps how leading-edge serrations' wavelength, amplitude, and termination distance increase wing performance across pre-stall, stall, and post-stall regimes. Provides starting point for industry investigations and gives evidence for supporting applications that operate at high angles of attack, including UAVs, eVTOL, rotor blades, and high-lift devices.
