SupercriticalWing
SupercriticalWing is an advanced aircraft design concept that aims to improve aerodynamic efficiency and reduce drag. The term "supercritical" refers to the airfoil's ability to maintain a high coefficient of lift at high angles of attack without experiencing a sudden drop in lift, which is known as stall. This is achieved by designing the wing with a specific pressure distribution that delays the formation of shock waves, which are responsible for the sudden drop in lift.
The concept of supercritical wings was first developed in the 1960s and has since been used in
Supercritical wings are typically characterized by their thick airfoil shape and the use of leading-edge extensions,
In summary, supercritical wings are an advanced aircraft design concept that aims to improve aerodynamic efficiency
