Abstract

There is a pressing need for emissions reductions and an increase in energy efficiency of the next generation of commercial passenger aircraft to reduce the environmental impact of the aviation industry. Improvements in aerodynamic performance in terms of lift and drag are crucial to meet this goal. The development of high aspect ratio wings and active flow controls is an on going process that will influence future aircraft designs. In this paper, the transonic truss braced wing (TTBW) and co-flow jet (CFJ) active flow control are analyzed as methods to improve the aircraft efficiency over a flight envelope. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the potential of the CFJ to improve the performance of the transonic truss braced wing.
