Effect of Aspect Ratio - Coggle Diagram
Effect of Aspect Ratio
Cross flow
Over tip
Over root
"Escaping" flow
Decreases lift
As decreases span
Root solution
Effective Aspect Ratio
Root attached to hull
No cross flow allowed
Mirror image
Groundboard
Span = 2x span
Higher Aspect Ratio
Less Rudder Angles
To produce same Lift Coefficients
Not means
That generates higher Lift Coeff
Lift Coeff
More affected by
Reynolds Number
Surface Roughness
Than Aspect Ratio
Issue is that
Reynolds not usually available
Roughness not know with precision
