Optimum winglet angle is a lift augmenting device which is attached at the wing tip of an aircraft. Winglets are used to improve the aerodynamic efficiency of an aircraft by lowering the formation of an Induced Drag, which is caused by the wingtip vortices. Numerous studies have been carried out to investigate the best aerodynamic performance of a subsonic aircraft wing at various cant angles of its winglet. This paper includes NACA 2413 aerofoil coordinates for the wing design and the winglet with the blended design. The design process is carried out in AUTO Desk Fusion360 software and flow features of the entire wing including winglet were examined at different cant angles of winglets varying from 15ο, 45ο & 60ο at different angles of attack in cross wind condition in AUTO Desk Flow Design and XFLR softwares.
