Abstract

The paper presents the influence of the biplane configuration on the aerodynamically performances and parameters of the air vehicle. It is studied the influence of gap, stagger and decalage on the lift, drag and moment coefficient and also on the position of the center. In almost all cases it is found that the influence of biplane configuration it is good on one profile and negative on the other..

Keywords
