20090194640 | Apparatus system and method for drag reduction - An apparatus, method and system for combining aerodynamic design with engine power to increase synergy between the two and increase climb performance, engine-out performance, and fuel efficiency for a variety of aircraft or the like. | 08-06-2009 |
20090230251 | AIRPLANE ENGINE PYLON COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE PROTRUDING ELEMENT TO GENERATE A VORTEX OF THE AIRFLOW - A wing arrangement of an aircraft has a wing and at least one pylon for suspending an engine below the wing. The wing has a leading edge with a high-lift device, which is able to move between a deployed position in which the high-lift device projects forward of the leading edge, and which is interrupted in a forward intermediate region of the wing located at the leading edge, the pylon having a forward edge extending forward of the leading edge of the wing between a forward upper portion connected to the wing in the forward intermediate region and a forward lower portion connected to a nacelle of the engine. An element of narrow elongate shape protrudes longitudinally from the forward edge and, during flight at a high angle of attack of the aircraft, generates a vortex of aerodynamic flow that is propagated toward the forward intermediate region above the wing. | 09-17-2009 |

20100320331 | Unitary, Self-Stiffened and Pivoting Composite Panel, in Particular for a Mobile Part of an Aircraft - The invention relates to a panel pivoting about an axis parallel to a side of the panel, which comprises a first continuous coating ( | 12-23-2010 |
20110001014 | TWIN VORTEX VTOL AIRCRAFT - Apparatus and method of using a generated vortex atop a disc-shaped wing to achieve vertical take-off and sustained flight of an aircraft. Included are apparatus and means of controlling said flight. | 01-06-2011 |
20120061522 | Wavy airfoil - This invention uses a novel shape of airfoil to achieve an improved lift to drag ratio and to improve performance at higher angles of attack. The airfoil has a three dimensional wave pattern that modifies the shape of a traditional airfoil to coordinate the airflow through channels on both the top and bottom sides. The uniquely shaped airfoil of this invention could have many uses including a wind turbine blade. This invention not only provides for a more efficient device by improving the effective angle of attack and lift/drag ratio, but also provides for a quiet airflow thus greatly reducing nuisance noise over conventional devices. | 03-15-2012 |
20120119036 | WING OF AN AIRCRAFT OR SPACECRAFT, COMPRISING A MOBILE FLOW BODY - A wing of an aircraft or spacecraft, the wing including at least a movable flow body, the wing including a movable support member, which is connected to the flow body, for rotating the flow body on the wing, the wing including a flow body control element, the flow body control element being fixed to the wing in a first point and the support member in a second point, the two points of the flow body control element and of the support member forming an axis, the flow body control element being formed at a predetermined angle to the axis and the flow body control element guiding the flow body in a predetermined plane about this axis. | 05-17-2012 |
20140191086 | METHOD FOR FORMING LIFTING FORCE FOR AN AIRCRAFT AND WING PROFILE FOR REALIZING SAID METHOD (ALTERNATIVES) - Unique aeroplane wing profiles substantially increasing the aerodynamic qualities of the wing are proposed. The advantage of the proposed profiles and novel method for forming lifting force for a wing on the basis of said profiles is the complete shifting of the interaction of the windstream onto the lower contour, the complete liberation of the upper contour from interaction with the windstream, leading to the elimination of wave drag—an insurmountable defect in wings with a classic profile, and a substantial increase in lifting force for the wing. Novel solutions are given which were the basis for a basically novel interpretation of the process of flow around a wing by the windstream and of the formation of excess pressure along the lower surface. | 07-10-2014 |
