CFD analysis on the effect of winglet cant angle on aerodynamics of ONERA M6 wing

Winglets are one of important part of the wing that can reduce the vortex formed at the wing tips and therefore reduce induced drag by partial recovery of the tip vortex energy. Moreover, they increase the effective aspect ratio without actually increasing the wingspan. The geometry of the wingle...
