Performance Enhancement of Autonomous Sailboats via CFD-Optimized Wing–Tail Sail Configurations

The development of energy-efficient propulsion systems for autonomous sailboats requires innovative sail designs that balance aerodynamic performance and maritime operational reliability. This study presents a novel rigid wing sail system comprising a NACA 0020 main sail with an embedded NACA 0018 t...
