Abstract
Korean traditional kite has the unusual shape of the elongated rectangle with the center hole. The aerodynamic forces are numerically computed on Korean traditional kite with aspect ratio 1:1.5 by using FLUENT software. Simulating the flight of the kite with various diameters of the center hole, the present study has investigated the role of the center hole as well as the effect of diameter of the center hole. The center hole plays a role in relieving the sudden increase of tension associated with fast rewinding of the kite thread in kite fighting, thereby enabling faster rewinding of the kite thread. The proper diameter of the center hole is 1/3 of the width.
