Analysis of supercritical airfoils improves critical mach number in subsonic aircraft, suggesting enhanced performance.
An airfoil's aerodynamic properties are crucial for design considerations and experimental appraisal by evaluating different supercritical airfoil performance characteristics under cruising conditions, this resulted in an increase in the critical Mach Number. This project's primary goal is to investigate aerodynamic properties including the drag coefficient and critical Mach number while designing and analyzing different supercritical airfoils with the same cruising local velocity. Enhancing a subsonic aircraft's Mach number at transonic Mach speeds is the goal. The selected design profile is based on the Airbus A380-800's current airfoils.
