An exploratory investigation of the relative merits of split and chord-extension flaps on a 45 degrees swept-back wing (open access)

An exploratory investigation of the relative merits of split and chord-extension flaps on a 45 degrees swept-back wing

Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation to explore the merits of split and chord-extension flaps on a 45 degree sweptback wing. Testing occurred at low speed on a semispan model equipped with split flaps of 60 and 90-percent span and a full-span chord-extension flap. Results regarding split flaps, chord-extension flap, and resultant lift coefficients after balancing pitching-moment coefficients are provided.
