Laminar Flow robustness and Load control effectiveness evaluation for a Regional Turboprop wing

Topic description

Specific Challenge:

Within this project an experimental and theoretical assessment of laminar flow robustness, aerodynamic performances and load control effectiveness for a turboprop A/C wing has to be performed at high/medium speeds (Mach up to 0.67 and wind tunnel Reynolds number 10-11 million) including theoretical evaluation of propeller wake aerodynamic interference. Wind tunnel wing model (5 meters span) has not to be manufactured since already available from another Project under Call for Proposals. An indicative expected ROM funding distribution is: approx. 75% for WTT and approx. 25% for all other WPs. Please refer to the full topic descriptions document published in this call.
