About this document

Quasi Vortex-Lattice Method in Aerodynamics by Alberto Gallottini is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes and evaluates the quasi vortex-lattice method (Quasi VLM), applying it to problems in steady and unsteady aerodynamics such as evaluating backwash effects in ground effect analysis and extending the method to predict unsteady leading-edge suction. The Quasi VLM is shown to accurately compute backwash in ground effect analysis compared to the conventional vortex-lattice method (VLM) which tends to overpredict backwash. Both methods predict similar lift in ground effect despite the VL
