The Root to fusleage junction is a source of separation in many gliders.
In our Marske Pioneer at extrmely slow speeds we discovered that a separation seems to start at this wing root/ fuselage junction. And a fillet may solve this. Tuft the wing and record the result on film with voice commentary for the differing speeds. When you have a newly constructed fillet record that too on film to see if you have improved the airflow. We will be adding a wingroot fillet on our Pioneer over the winter months. -mat Marske Flying Wings http://www.continuo.com/marske |
