Aerodynamics of porous airfoils and wings

This paper presents novel wind tunnel test results on the aerodynamics of a symmetric thin porous airfoil and a porous rectangular half wing using a symmetric thin airfoil as its cross section, obtained by a six-component force balance. The variation of lift coefficient, drag coefficient, pitching...
