3、haracteristics of a plug- aileron configuration consisting of six segments extending frm the wing Wercen-pan to the wing Geroenhpan atations and placed perpendfcdar to the free-fltream flow with the center of each plug segment on the wing 70-ipercenWhord line. The basic plug aileron and several modi
4、fications thereof were investigated for a range of plug projections through a large angle-of-ttack range. In addition, several -8s of lift flape were Investigated and a full-span slotted-flap configuration was developed. The plug-aileran characteristios were determined with the “span slotted flap in

Of the various flap confi namely, a large reduction in rollbq+ncment coefficient at high anglee of attack and low or reversed effectiveness

Unpubliehed data showing the favorable rolling- moment characterietica in the transonic meed rmge obtained bs one of the more satisfactory Bpoiler configurations of reference 1 indicated that further work toward Impyoving the lowpeed characterieti
7、ce of spoilers on wept whga would be desirable. References 2 and 3 reported that the plug aileron (formed the inetdlation of a slot through the wing behind the epoiler) on unsvept wings eliminated the ob3ectionsble rollimoment characteristics exhibited by plain spoilere.

The pr- portionately higher lifilng effectiveness of the inboard partid-pan flap as compared with the full-span flap has been noted previously in references 4, 5, and 6 for unawept wings. The pitch-nt coef- . ficients pr
25、oduced by the Full“8pan slotted flap is about three thea as great as that produced by the partial“Bpan slotted flap. This effect is EGE would be predicted an the basis of the analyses of references 7 and 8 which show that the center of load of the wing with the full-span flap is considerably farther
26、 behind the aerodynamic center of the wing than is the center of load of the wing with the partial-span inboard flap. Figure 13 presents a comparison of the aerodynamic characteristics in pitch of the plain wing and the wfng with the half-span Zap flap deflected 60. (These data were obtained at a Re
27、ynolds number of 1,600,000.) A camparison of the p1aiL-H-g data of figure 1-3 with the plaiming data of figure 12 (which was obtained at a Reynolds number of 2,400,000) shows that the maximmu value of CL and the slope of the cume of CL against a at the high lifts obtained at the lower Reynolds nmber
28、 are samewhat greater than the values obtained at the higher Reynolds number. In addition, a comparison of the Zap flap data of figure 13 with slotted- flap data of figure 12 shows that the Zap flap produced almost 88 high a maxfmum value of CL aa the full-span slotted flap but produced about the sa
