Abstract

A turbulence often occur during a plane^s flight especially on the wing^s part. This matter is influenced by several factors, for example the air density, altitude and air pressure. Furthermore, the wing^s shape will influence factors mentioned above. In this experiment we used different shaped plane wing prototypes that will be tested using X device. This experiment will indicate the air output whether it was laminar or turbulence. Moreover, we will look at how much the laminar and turbulence has on the effectiveness of the plane wing being tested. The purpose of this research is to know how much influence a plane wing^s shape has on the occurred turbulence, furthermore identifying which wing causes the most minimum turbulence. We used 3 different plane wing model, which are A model, B model, and C model with each model has different extent of area. Our results indicate that device X is able to show the turbulence difference on each plane wing model
