Aircraft aerodynamic surfaces (32) coated with photocatalytic self-cleaning coating reduces the need for washing off insects and other organic contaminants. Disturbances in laminar flow profiles due to organic contaminants are reduced, thereby improving performance by reducing drag. The photocatalytic self-cleaning coating includes nano-particles of titanium oxide and may be applied using a sol-gel process.
L'invention porte sur des surfaces aérodynamiques d'avion (32) revêtues d'un revêtement autonettoyant photocatalytique qui réduit la nécessité d'enlever par lavage les insectes et autres contaminants organiques. Les perturbations dans des profils d'écoulement laminaire dues aux contaminants organiques sont réduites, améliorant ainsi les performances par réduction de la traînée. Le revêtement autonettoyant photocatalytique comprend des nanoparticules d'oxyde de titane et peut être appliqué à l'aide d'un procédé sol-gel.
