![]() ![]() A short presentation of the LowFi-toolchain is given, along with the modeling approach in the HiFi framework using mesh deformations and a mass flux boundary condition. The LowFi toolchain already incorporates several modules for the proposed technology combination. Furthermore, this work encompasses adaptations and implementations performed within both the LowFi and HiFi toolchains. The paper at hand presents results of aerodynamic analyses on both fidelity levels for the wing of the turbulent reference configuration CATeW-01, featuring the technology combination as a retrofit. To derive conclusions on system level, low-fidelity (LowFi) overall aircraft design methodologies will be applied for the analysis of a medium haul reference aircraft in the course of the project, while complex aerodynamic phenomena are modelled with high-fidelity (HiFi) computational fluid dynamics methods. An evaluation of the coupled technologies is, therefore, expected to show an even higher potential due to synergy effects. Individually, both technologies have proven to lead to major aerodynamic drag reductions. The objective of the LuFo VI-1 project CATeW (Coupled Aerodynamic Technologies for Aircraft Wings) consists in multifidelity analyses to assess the potential for aerodynamic efficiency increase by combined application of hybrid laminar flow control and variable camber technologies to the wing of a transonic transport aircraft. ![]()
