Description

Report discusses the results of force testing of the aerodynamic characteristics of an NACA 0009 airfoil with a double plain flap; it consisted of a plain forward flap with a chord 20 percent of the airfoil chord and a plan rearward flap with a chord 15 percent of the airfoil chord. Comparisons were made to the characteristics of a 0.50c single plain flap. The lift, hinge moments, drag, and pitching moments are described.
