Extract

The purpose of this paper is to outline briefly the aerodynamics of high-lift devices in the most general possible way to provide the background against which the more detailed advances in calculation methods to be described by the RAE may be viewed. At the same time it is intended to discuss the factors affecting maximum lift coefficient in which the methods described in the RAE paper may be used to obtain improved performance.
