4、CE CHARACTERISTIC5SXIx - A DOUBLE FLAP WTTH AN OVERHANG ANDAN INTERNAL AEROD-YN.W1C BALANCEBy Robert B. LiddellWind-tunnel tests have been made in two-dimensionalflow to investigate the aerodyzmnic characteristics ofa double flap with an internal wd an overhang balance.Three sizes of each te of bala
5、nce were tested withthree relative rates of deflection of the two flaps.An ?ACA66-C09 airfoil having a O.SO-airfoil-chordstraight-contour forward flap and.a .20-airfoil-chordstraight-contour rearward flap was used.The test results indicated that a balanced doubleflap produced the same lift 8s a sing
6、le plain flap ofthe same chord and also produced highly balanced hingemoments. High lifts and.low hine ?omentswere obtainedwith a double-flap arrangement if either an overhang oran internal balance having a chord 50 percent of theflap chord was incorporated on the forward flap. Theoverhang-balance f
