Introduction. welcome to part 6 of a series on an introduction to aircraft design. in part 5 we looked at the role that the airfoil profile plays in determining the flying characteristics associated with its selection. in our final introductory post on the wing we look at a typical wing structure, the various loads that the wing is expected to.
Inch Technical English Airliner Wing The wing tip cap is secured to the tip with countersunk screws and is secured to the interspar structure at four points with ¼ inch diameter bolts. to prevent ice from forming on the leading edge of the wings of large aircraft, hot air from an engine is often channeled through the leading edge from wing root to wing tip. The internal wing structure, consisting of spars, ribs, and stringers, and the external wing, which is the skin. ribs give the shape to the wing section, support the skin (prevent buckling), and act to prevent the fuel flowing around as the aircraft maneuvers. its primary structural function is to withstand bending moments (the moment resultant. Skins. the wing skins is a semi monocoque structure are load bearing and carry and transmit shear loads into the neighbouring spar caps and stiffeners. this concludes this post on the wing structural layout. the next post provides a more detailed look at the design and operation of a typical high lift system. Wing chord and planform. the wing chord is the distance from its leading edge to its trailing edge in the streamwise direction, i.e., parallel to the airplane’s longitudinal axis. the chord is given the symbol . on many airplanes, the chord changes along the wing’s span, i.e., as in the above figure, mainly for aerodynamic reasons.
