This report is a follow-up study on the aerodynamic performances of unconventional aerofoils, particularly of those shaped to that of the dragonfly wings. In this study, numerical simulations were carried out to gather lift and drag data of the NACA 0010, Corrugated A and Corrugated B aerofoils. The...
