| Description | The aerodynamics of a rectangular wing with a jet exhausting in the spanwise direction from the tips has been explored experimentally. By effectively changing the span of the wing as well as outwardly displacing the tip vortices, such jets can induce aerodynamic forces that could be used for roll and lateral control of aircraft. The concept has been investigated for a variety of jet intensities, angles of attack, and aspect ratios. The results appear to confirm theoretically predicted scaling laws for lift gain and moment generation due to blowing. |
