Abstract

Based on the results of force measurement experiment in a low speed wind tunnel, the effect of asymmetrical leading-edge sweep angle on aerodynamic load was investigated with the common-swift's wing model. The wing model was divided into three segments, i.e., arm wing, hand wingin and hand wing out, and the roll moment produced by the variation of asymmetrical change of wing segment's leading-edge sweep angle was analyzed.
