Numerical study of aerodynamic characteristics on blended wing body aircraft with small canard
Zurriati Mohd Ali1, Wahyu Kuntjoro2, Wirachman Wisnoe3, Rizal Effendy Mohd Nasir4, Noor Iswadi Ismail5.
The blended wing body (BWB) aircraft has a unique design. The main body and wing of BWB are
merged to increase the lift force on the aircraft. However, BWB has poor stability arising from the absence of the tail. Hence, a small horizontal stabilizer called as canard has been incorporated in front of the main wing to improve BWB’s stability. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations conductedm to obtain the aerodynamics parameters of the BWB i.e. lift, drag and moment coefficients, showed that overall, the canard is beneficial to the BWB aerodynamics performance.
