MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541023440 A) filed by Joel Philip M on March 17, 2025, for Serraflow In Trailing Edge Of Wing.
Inventor includes Joel Philip M.
The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.
Abstract: The present invention enhances the aerodynamic performance of a NACA 65-412series airfoil by incorporating serrated trailing edges to optimize lift-to-drag ratio, reduce aerodynamic drag, and control flow separation. By systematically varying serration wavelength, amplitude, and angle, the invention modifies wake dynamics and turbulence characteristics, leading to improved aerodynamic efficiency. The study employs Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations and potential experimental validation to evaluate the effects of serration geometry on pressure distribution, vortex shedding, and aerodynamic forces. This innovation has applica:tions:in aerospace, UAVs, wind turbines, and turbomachinery, offering a passive flow control soiution for enhanced performance and fuel efficiency.
