Therefore, my question is: What should I read and what information do I need? And what kind of data can I collect to prove my hypothesis? ( I am currently taking IB HL Maths and Further HL Maths). Can anyone give me some suggestions

Winglets in wind tunnel
Hello, I am currently choosing my topic for my extended essay (IB DP). (for those who are not familiar with the Extended essay, it is basically a 4000 words essay) I am interested in investigating how winglets affect the performance(or efficiency). I would need to collect quantitative data and develop a mathematical model for how winglets would affect the performance.
Therefore, my question is: What should I read and what information do I need? And what kind of data can I collect to prove my hypothesis? ( I am currently taking IB HL Maths and Further HL Maths). Can anyone give me some suggestions
? Thanks

Hello Michaellau,
Welcome to Science Buddies!
Have you looked at this Science Buddies project?

The background section gives several suggestions and references that look like they will help you develop your hypothesis and collect the data you will need to test it.
Let us know if you have additional questions!
