Aerodynamic forces created on the lifting body, like an aircraft wing, can be optimized by modifying the flow field around it. These aerodynamic forces directly influence fuel consumption, thus the economy of flight. Various techniques have been developed and tested on wings for improving aerodynamic efficiency. The present work deals with the integration schemes of fanjets with aircraft wings for the same reason. Fanjets, like bladeless fans, can induce and entrain surrounding air for generation of lift and thrust; however, they are not yet integrated with the wing for modification of aerodynamic forces. In this novel research, the flow physics of the fanjet is explored by varying various geometric parameters. With an increase in the fanjet radius, the mass flow rate decreases, whereas the drag increases. A similar trend was observed for an increase in the jet width. For variation in the angle of attack, the maximum mass flow rate and minimum drag were observed at an angle of 0°. A similar analysis was carried out for semi-annular fanjets. Based on the results, the preferred selection for geometric parameters of annular and semi-annular fanjets was documented for integration with the aircraft wing.

Morphing aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVS) are expected to have a multirole capacity, allowing them to adapt to changing mission environments. A UAV model is required to efficiently and quickly calculate the attributes of numerous wing variants. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly being used in unconventional and asymmetric military missions, as well as in a variety of civic situations. With dynamic onboard reconfiguration capabilities, UAVs are designed to accommodate conflicting mission objectives. The ability to accomplish a wide range of missions is severely limited by the traditional fixed-wing aircraft configuration. Wing morphing has been offered as a method to modify a flying vehicle's aerodynamic features while it is in flight. A morphing aircraft is a type of aircraft that may morph/ change geometry while in flight to boost efficiency. Traditional aircraft wings are a sacrifice that enables the plane to fly in a wide range of conditions while offering sub-optimal performance in each of those. Morphing shows potential as little more than a future enabler technology for next-generation aircraft. Wing morphing technologies seek to make the aircraft increasingly energy and aerodynamically efficient by actively changing the wing configuration during flight. Morphing offers hope as a future facilitator innovation for next-generation aircraft. Wing morphing technologies strive to make airplanes more power and aerodynamically efficient by actively changing the wing form during flight. These wing and tail form variants may be used to facilitate rapid directional changes, slow flight without crashing, and minimise drag during high-velocity flight. This study's overarching goal is to investigate the effects of readily adjustable wing sweep and wingspan on aerodynamic and flight stability characteristics.

... Wing rock is highly dependent on the configuration and has been studied in many designs, such as chined forebody configurations [18,19], canard-configuration models [20], fighter aircraft with conical forebodies [14], double-delta wings [21], blended wing body configurations [22], and flying wings [12,23]. Various configurations and shapes exhibit different ranges of angle of attack, amplitude, and frequency of wing rock oscillation [22]. ...

... For aerodynamic design, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis is commonly employed to evaluate high-speed compressible flow fields. These physics-rich flow fields are essential for determining aerodynamic performance 3 , conducting multi-disciplinary analysis and optimization 4,5 , estimating noise 6 , studying stall characteristics 7 , and integrating propulsion systems with the airframe 8,9 . In transonic and supersonic designs, flow fields are characterized by shock waves of varying strength and position, as well as interactions between shock waves and boundary layers. ...

... The bladeless design of the Dyson AirMultiplier has since garnered significant attention due to its unique approach to air circulation, which eliminates the need for conventional rotating blades. Some studies have examined the influence some parameters such as shape on the outlet flow field structure [4], discharge ratio [5][6][7][8] or even noise [9]. ...

... The study identified solidity [9], blade shape [10], helicity [11], airfoil profile, and the design of connecting rods [12] as the primary parameters influencing the energy conversion efficiency of vertical axis turbines. Dendy Satrio [13] improved the energy conversion efficiency of vertical axis turbines under low-flow velocity conditions by introducing flow bypass structures, whereas Furhan Khan [14] achieved similar enhancements using variable pitch methods. Although these solutions are effective, they increase the structural complexity of the turbine, thus undermining its inherent advantage of simplicity. ...

... When the AOA changes, the aerodynamic coefficient of the aircraft will also change non-linearly, and will change unsteady again with the control surface deflection, inboard or outboard sideslip and other influencing factors. Aerodynamic coefficient is an important index to show the aerodynamic characteristics of aircraft [22]. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the changes of aerodynamic force/moment coefficient at this stage before analyzing the longitudinal stability of aircraft during take-off and landing. ...
