AERODYNAMICS OF DEFLECTED SLIPSTREAMS. PART I. FORMULATION OF THE INTEGRAL EQUATIONS

Abstract

The effects of jet curvature are investigated on the premise that at higher angles of flow deflection, this factor should have an important influence on wing lift. The jet boundary is regarded as a vortical layer, as is also the wing surface and its wake. The jet vorticity distribution is determined subject to the dynamic equations of rotational flow which are applied in a thin region at the jet boundary. This approach leads to the consideration of jet trailing vorticity or secondary vorticity which occurs in certain curved nonuniform flows.
