The height static stability of a wing can be a main concern for conceptual design of wing-in-ground effect (WIG) crafts. In this research, the stability of a rectangular and compound wing was computationally predicted in ground effect. A realizable k-e turbulent model was used for simulation the flow filed over the wing surfaces. First, the drag coefficient and lift to drag ratio of numerical simulation were validated by experimental data of the rectangular wing. Next, the stability of the compound wing respect to different ground clearances will be determined and compared with rectangular wing. This study illustrated a deep understanding of static stability of present compound wing in ground effect, which eventually can be a guideline for researchers and designers of WIG craft.
