Parametric Study On Aerodynamic Performance Of Uav Winglet Design

This work describes the aerodynamic performance of an aircraft model wing with RGV winglet. Ruppell’s Griffon Vulture (RGV), which is the highest-flying bird in the world, (with confirmed evidence of a flight at an altitude of 11,300 m (37,000 ft) above sea level) has been taken as the main consider...
