Abstract
The wing comprises a passage 5, intended to conduct air from the upper surface of the leading edge of the wing to a lower surface of the wing thereby increasing lift. The passage may have multiple exits (4, fig.3) and the air could be sucked through the passage by means of jet engine or other propulsion device.
Description
NEW WING DESIGN
This invention relates to a wing or aerofoil design which includes a tubing system for venting airflow through the body of the wing.
The change of airflow from the traditional flow around the wing is intended to remove air from the upper edge of the wing and route it through the wing to the lower edge which is intended to increase the amount of lift generated by the wing.
The air intake vent would be located on the upper front edge of the wing.
The design could include either a single air vent through the wing with a single exit, or exhaust vent. Alternatively, the wing could have multiple air vents with single or multiple exit vents.
The wing could also incorporate a method for'sucking'the air through the wing, which could take the form of a jet engine or other propulsion device.
The air would be vented through the wing at a point above the point in the wing at which air starts to flow over the upper wing surface. This is to ensure that only air that would normally flow over the wing is diverted through the wing.
Figure 1. Shows a cross section of a wing with dotted lines showing the venting through the wing.
Figure 2 is a front view of the same wing
Figure 3 represents a wing with multiple exit vents
Figure 4 shows the airflow (marked as 5) around the wing
The area labeled as 1 shows the intake vent (s)
The area labeled 2 is the leading edge of the wing
The area 3 is the venting tube
Area 4 is the exit vent (s)
Arrows marked as 5 represent airflow around and through the wing
Claims (2)
- CLAIMS NEW WING DESIGN 1. A wing or aerofoil with a hollow channel or tube through the body of the wing from the upper leading edge to the lower surface of the wing
- 2. A wing as described above whereby forward movement of the wing causes air to be diverted through the body of the wing to flow under the lower surface
