Abstract

As the development of science and technology and the requirements of energy conservation and emission reduction have been proposed, the public’s demands for the requirements of passenger planes have also become higher and higher. However, the commercial airliner has been facing a whole spectrum of problems, such as poor flight efficiency and high fuel consumption. This paper analyses the major technological breakthrough of optimisation of streamlined wings from the 1980s to the present, consisting of the utilisation of variable-sweep wings, natural laminar flow (NLF) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Each of the methods of operational principle and analysis of the case suggests that both methods are beneficial for commercial airliners. This paper proposes a hypothesis about the streamlining of commercial airliners, which might emerge in the future. If variable-sweep wings, NLF and CFD are effectively employed and appropriately refined in commercial aeroplanes, the flight efficiency will make a significant breakthrough.
