Modern Airfoil Design
• NASA looked at developing an airfoil for general aviation that combine the high lift of the early 4-digit airfoils and the low drag of the 6- digit airfoils.– The key was the achievement of true laminar
flow over a significant portion of the airfoil strictly by the shape.
• No external blowing or artificial means of preserving the laminar boundary layer

Natural Laminar Flow Airfoils
• These new airfoils were called natural laminar flow airfoils
• The old NACA airfoils could only be altered one parameter at a time
• The new approach that NASA used was to first specify the desired characteristics that a particular airfoil required; then design it to meet those requirements. – This was called the inverse design.

NASA
• NASA worked with the Eppler method which began with a prescribed pressure disturbance over the airfoil, and applied various aerodynamic theories to analyze the flow and establish the boundary layer characteristics

Eppler Method
• The Eppler method had provisions to account for altitude at gross weight.
• This method allowed NASA to account for a variety of considerations

First Airfoil Intended for Light Single Engine Airplanes
• The first airfoil intended for light single engine airplanes was the NASA NFL (1)-0416.– The fist two numbers(04) signify a design lift
coefficient of 0.4 and the 16 refers to a maximum thickness of 16% of the chord.
– The 1 in parenthesis refers to the first generation of such airfoils

Newer Design Details
• Swept vertical Fins & T-tail arrangements
• Winglets, improved cowl shapes, carefully designed fillets
• *** All these aerodynamic refinements are quite beneficial

Potential Airliner Designs
• Engine Efficiency/Aerodynamic efficiency– higher aspect ratios
• Very Narrow Chord Wings– reducing skin friction drag, increasing
favorable pressure gradient; increasing laminar flow at higher speeds
• Span Loading– distributing the payload over all of the span

Potential General Aviation Designs
• Composite structures– can be molded & bound for very smooth
aerodynamic surfaces– boron or carbon fibers give high strength with
little weight– composites smoother & stronger

Potential General Aviation Designs
• Development in Propulsion systems
• Rotary/Wankel engine– an internal combustion engine without pistons– the combustion process drives the rotor in
continuous, smooth, rotating manner– can run on a variety of fuels– it does not produce a tremendous amount of
power for its weight

Potential General Aviation Designs
• Development in Propulsion systems
• Turboprops– prime performance for business & commuter
planes– single and multi engine– pictures on pages 295-298
