The project aims to develop Krueger flaps for Natural Laminar Flow (NLF) wings, enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing emissions in aircraft. It involves designing and manufacturing components that prevent flow disruptions caused by environmental factors during flight.
Natural Laminar Flow is one of the principal new wing technologies to be applied in the near future to reach the challenging fuel consumption and emission reduction objectives stipulated in ACARE’s Vision 2020.
NLF airfoils are shaped in such a way to avoid laminar to turbulent flow transitions in cruise which creates increased viscous drag, hence larger fuel consumptions and more emissions.Krueger flaps are suitable as high lift devices for NLF, because they leave the upper wing surface clean w…
