AspectRatio ( AspectRatio ) |
Options Card |
Arguments | AspectRatio | the aspect ratio of a rectangular wing |
Description | Defines the aspect ratio used for lift and drag corrections. | |
Remarks | If the aspect ratio is not zero, a
correction is applied to lift and drag coefficients. These corrections are
suitable for aspect ratios above 1.0 and try to simulate the effect of a
finite wing. This is not a good replacement for an analysis of the three
dimensional flow.
The feature is intended to allow for the comparison of
older wind tunnel tests, which have been performed with finite wings. |
