Exploring the Fluid Dynamics of an Electric Short TakeOff and Landing (eSTOL) Aircraft (Part 2 of 3)
In PART I of this series, we presented why an eSTOL aircraft is important for future urban transportation and laid the foundation for carrying out a systematic study of its fluid dynamics. Here, we will discuss several propulsion approximations which are used in this context and how we can use the Finite Volume technique to model the associated Navier-Stokes equations. Part III will showcase the results from this study and how they helped us to better understand the fluid dynamics...
