Abstrakt: A sweep process of a wing is very useful technique to enhance an aircraft performance especially the aircraft which fly in the sonic and supersonic areas. In this research, the influence of swept wing on aerodynamic characteristics generation of aircraft at supersonic speeds has been studied and analyzed using CFD technique. The 3D wing model analyzed and presented in this paper of NACA 2412 profile. The governing equations such as continuity, Energy Equation, and Reynolds Averaging Never-Stokes were solved in conjunction with an analysis of dynamic meshing technique to predict the aerodynamic characteristics and pressure distribution for a wing with a sweep angle ranging from 0° to 60° and a wide range of angle of attack (AOA). In conclusion, depending on the analysis result, increasing of sweep angle can increase the ratio of lift to drag coefficient by about 15%. Moreover, the sweep angle tends to change the load distribution on wing span. Generally, the swept wing has good performance coefficient through the designing an aircraft envelope by optimizing the sweep to get an optimum value of lift/drag ratio. The efficacy and authenticity of the CFD simulations model are shown by comparing the aerodynamic properties findings from the most recent wind tunnel test. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
