When Do Endplates Work?

The effect of the gap between endplates and wing sections on aerodynamic lift and drag forces was investigated. This was studied in order to determine the maximum gap distance at which flow can still be considered two-dimensional, and tip effects can be neglected. A non-dimensional distance, λ, was defined as the ratio of gap distance, d, to laminar boundary layer thickness, δt,laminar , over t...
