The aerodynamic performance of low aspect ratio sweptback wings with vortex flows was numerically investigated using the free vortex sheet method. The models studied included flat, cambered, strake, and leading edge flapped wings of different planforms. The theoretical results predicted by the method were compared with the existing experimental data wherever available; and the code capabilities and limitations were explored. Also the effects of the wing thickness, fuselage, leading edge flap and multiple vortex modeling on the aerodynamic characteristics were studied.
