Improved modeling of propeller-wing interactions with a lifting-line approach

Investigation of a suitable correction method to account for the finite slipstream height

Propellers have a high propulsive efficiency and can help in the reduction of fuel consumption of aircraft. For propellers which are mounted in front of the wing, the interaction of the slipstream with the lifting surfaces can alter the lift distribution significantly. In the use ...
