Within the AWIATOR project a numerical investigation has been undertaken in order to determine the aerodynamic effect of MiniTEDs on a complex aircraft configuration at cruise conditions and its dependence on Reynolds number. 3D-RANS results are being compared with experimental data and the MiniTED influence discussed in detail.
