  2. Wing configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_configuration

    Structurally and aerodynamically more efficient than a constant chord wing, and easier to make than the elliptical type. Trapezoidal: a tapered wing with straight leading and trailing edges: may be unswept or swept. [13] [14] [15] The straight tapered wing is one of the most common wing planforms, as seen on the Messerschmitt Bf 109. Inverse or ...

  3. Elliptical wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical_wing

    An elliptical wing is a wing planform whose leading and trailing edges each approximate two segments of an ellipse. It is not to be confused with annular wings , which may be elliptically shaped. Relatively few aircraft have adopted the elliptical wing, an even-smaller number of which attained mass production ; the majority of aircraft that did ...

  4. Lifting-line theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting-line_theory

    Lifting line theory supposes wings that are long and thin with negligible fuselage, akin to a thin bar (the eponymous "lifting line") of span 2s driven through the fluid. . From the Kutta–Joukowski theorem, the lift L(y) on a 2-dimensional segment of the wing at distance y from the fuselage is proportional to the circulation Γ(y) about the bar a

  5. Trapezoidal wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_wing

    Trapezoidal planform. In aeronautics, a trapezoidal wing is a straight-edged and tapered wing planform.It may have any aspect ratio and may or may not be swept. [1] [2] [3]The thin, unswept, short-span, low-aspect-ratio trapezoidal configuration offers some advantages for high-speed flight and has been used on a small number of aircraft types.

  8. Lift-induced drag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift-induced_drag

    Induced drag is related to the angle of the induced downwash in the vicinity of the wing. The grey vertical line labeled "L" is the force required to counteract the weight of the aircraft. The red vector labeled "L eff" is the actual lift on the wing; it is perpendicular to the effective relative airflow in the vicinity of the wing. The lift ...
