Podcast #171 Winglets Change The Flow Over The Entire Wing
There are more types of winglets than you can poke a stick at. There are the common Boeing winglets, then the Airbus sharklets, but so many more. And they're used to reduce the strength of the wingtip vortex and hence the induced drag of a wing. But, do they only affect the flow near the wingtip?
