Wing High-Lift System With Spoiler Droop

Take-off and landing regimes are becoming increasingly difficult due to the increased aircraft mass and speed and the toughening of air safety demands. The capabilities of conventional single-slotted or multi-slotted flaps are limited. This problem can be resolved by the deflection or bending of the tail section, which forms a potential flow that results in an increase in the lift component at high angles of attack. Different versions of the flap on a two-part high-lift device with a spoiler are examined. Calculations show that the application of an adaptive high-lift system with spoiler droop to an aircraft increases the lift coefficient by as much as 15%. Aircraft model experiments indicated that a delta(s) = 5 degrees deflection of the trailing edge increases the lift coefficient by 11% - 13%. Setting the propeller load coefficient to B = 1 (thrust/velocity factor propeller area) under take-off delta(f) = 20 degrees and landing delta(f) = 35 degrees configurations increases the efficiency of a lift coefficient by 25% and 36%, respectively. The application of spoiler droop and leading edge modifications of the wing expands the operational range of angles of attack and increases the lift coefficient by 10% at a small intensity (B = 0.5). It is concluded that the application of spoiler droop to high-lift system allows improvement of the wing properties under take-off and landing regimes of various types.
