title = "Aerodynamics optimization of RC plane winglet",
abstract = "This project deals with understanding the various steps involved in performing finite element analysis of computational fluid mechanics systems to enhance the aerodynamics performance of the RC plane for SAE competition. The analysis is conducted for the complete airplane and for the wing optimization. Various modifications are applied to the wing and is analyzed first and then the best cases are applied to the whole airplane. The steps include creating a modeling plan, material selection, geometric modeling, model meshing, applying boundary conditions, and obtaining the required results by solving the models. The software used to conduct the finite element analysis is Workbench. Once the results are obtained, model and result verification are done to validate the data. It is concluded that the airplane-45 degrees winglet has the highest lift force with the minimum drag.",
