Wing for an aircraft, aircraft and method for reducing aerodynamic drag and improving maximum lift

摘要

A wing (2) for an aircraft comprises a leading edge (4) and a wing tip extension (8) extending from an end of a main wing region to a wing tip (26). The wing tip extension (8) comprises an arrangement of openings (22) at least from the end of a main wing region to the wing tip (26) along the leading edge (8), which openings (22) are connected to an air conveying device for conveying air through the openings (22).Thereby in flight states with a low flight velocity the flow around a wing tip extension can be harmonized such that the drag is decreased and the lift of the wing is increased.
