Abstract:
The conjecture which states that the optimum induced drag for a closed wing is a limit case of the optimum induced drag of a quasi-closed C-wing is extended to the case of a non-planar wing in ground effect. The numerical simulations are performed for circular and elliptical (quasi)-annular wing.
