Abstract
Report presenting an investigation to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a spoiler-slot-deflector configuration in combination with a trailing-edge 29-percent-chord high-lift flap. The wing has a sweepback of 45 degrees at the quarter-chord line, an aspect ratio of 4, a taper ratio of 0.6, and an NACA 65A006 airfoil. Results are also presented regarding the effect of deflector projection on the aerodynamic characteristics of a spoiler-slot-deflector on the plain wing.
