A winglet is a device used to improve the efficiency of aircraft by lowering the lift induced drag caused by wingtip vortices. The objectives of the analysis are to compare the aerodynamic characteristic wing with and without winglet. In the case study, take winglet upward and downward, winglet upward with the cant - sweep angles (0, 30 and 45 degree) {u2013} (0, 20 and 40 degree), a taper ratios of (0.2, 0.6 and 1) and a twist in and out (5 degree). A CFD simulation performs by FLUENT ®, computational fluid dynamics software with The Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model to compare of aerodynamics characteristics. All cases all have the same initial conditions. Since wingtip vortices are more prevalent at take-off conditions for low speed and high lift conditions, the wings run at a Mach number of 0.2 at sea level
