In order to reveal the science of adding winglet for Active aircraft, the paper calculates the aerodynamic efficiency of a wing added winglet using CFD technology, Aerodynamic benefit of the wing added winglet reaches the maximum when the angle of attack is 2 degree, the lift and drag reduction rate are 21.07% and 43.56% respectively. The results show that it is a good choice to add winglet for aircraft to reduce operation cost and fuel consumption.
