Preliminary conceptual design of a wing in ground effect (WIGE) aircraft for 6 passengers / Zainal Abidin Arsat.

Wing in Ground Effect (WIGE) is the aircraft which is flying at low altitude under a ground effect condition and float on the water while inoperative. In this project consist of designing the external shape of WIGE aircraft by using CATIA software and conducting a preliminary aerodynamics analysis o...

In this project consist of designing the external shape of WIGE aircraft by using CATIA software and conducting a preliminary aerodynamics analysis of the design by CFD software (STAR-CCM). The size of aircraft is design to suit for 4 passengers which is 10m length, 4m high and 8m wing span. The aircraft is design to driven by piston engine with dual propellers and a cruising velocity was set to be 40m/s. The operating temperature and density is 303K and L164kg/m respectively. The aerodynamics analyses were covered on 1.5m and 2m altitudes with various angles of attack.
