  • Abstract
    This paper discusses the influence of canard deflection angle on the aerodynamics characteristic of a Blended Wing Body (BWB) Baseline-II aircraft obtained from wind tunnel test. Canard is added as longitudinal control. All tests are carried out in UiTM Low Speed Wind Tunnel using 1/6 scaled model at around 0.1 Mach number at several canard angle. The result of the lift coefficient (CL), the drag coefficient (CD), and the pitching moment coefficient (CM), are plotted and analyze to show the characteristics of the BWB with different canard deflection angles.
