Prediction of Maximum Lift Effects on Realistic High-Lift-Commercial-Aircraft-Configurations within the European project EUROLIFT II

Kurzfassung

The paper will present the key results and the main achievements, as obtained through the challenging research work assigned to Subtask 2.1.3 of the EUROLIFT II project, i.e. extensive numerical polar computations for three different stages of gradually increased geometrical complexity of the KH3Y aircraft configuration to predict the dependence of the high-lift performance on the Reynolds number and to further improve the understanding of the high-lift associated vortex phenomena.
