Interaction of components will not affect aerodynamic design of fuselage.(a) True(b) FalseI got this question in an online interview.The above asked question is from Configuration Layout topic in section Configuration Layout Considerations of Aircraft Design

Answer»

The correct answer is (a) True

Explanation: Interaction of various components will affect the aerodynamic design. Wing-fuselage interaction GIVES drag which is known as INTERFERENCE drag. If a design has not CONSIDERED interaction of the various components with each other then it will result in unexpected performance. Wing wake can stall the HORIZONTAL tail, wing downwash will INCREASE AOA seen by tail etc. are examples of interactions between various components.
