About this project

From Prandtl's 1933 paper on Bell lift distribution for minimizing the induced drag and recent works being published by NASA on PRANDTL D glider, I decided to do a performance study and comparison of this type of lift distribution along with the conventional elliptic lift distribution, that is to compare two wings with different lift distributions but with the same plan form area, taper ratio and aspect ratio
