STOL Tactical Aircraft Investigation. Volume IV. Analysis of Wind Tunnel Data: Vectored Thrust/Mechanical Flaps and Internally Blown Jet Flaps

Abstract

The report presents the analysis of 728 hours of testing, conducted in the Boeing V/STOL 20 x 20 ft. Wind Tunnel, on a model of a medium STOL transport with vectored thrust and jet flap powered-lift systems. The interactions between the two powered lift systems and the basic airplane aerodynamics are presented for a systematic series of configuration changes which include sweep and nacelle location.
