Fluid Dynamics of Aircraft Stalling

Abstract

The meeting was intended to provide a collaborative up-dating of research information on the aerodynamics of the stall at both low and high speeds. Recent work on the mechanics of flow separation was presented. A major subject area was the high lift performance and stalling behaviour of three-dimensional wings, including the influence of sweepback, the behaviour of high lift devices and the techniques and methods evolved for wind tunnel research. Flight development experience on recent combat and transport aircraft was described, and some papers concerned post-stall behaviour and the important problem of high speed buffet in relation to the maneuvering of combat aircraft.
