Description
Summary:Generalized expressions in closed form have obtained by means of linearized theory for the aerodynamic characteristics (lift-, rolling-moment-, pitching-moment-, and hinge-moment-coefficient derivatives) due to deflection of inboard trailing-edge flaps. The analysis considers the effects of Mach number and flap aspect ratio, taper ratio, and sweep for the conditions where the Mach lines lie behind the flap leading and trailing edges. The flap configurations analyzed are limited to the case of streamwise tips where the foremost Mach lines from the flap tips do not intersect the root and tip chords of the wing.
