Model configuration
Deflected trailing-edge flap at fixed angles of attack.Â
Experiment description
A planar flat plate with a cantilevered compliant panel fixed to the trailing edge. The compliant panel deflection angle is adjusted in discrete steps with respect to the planar plate, and lift, drag and pitching moment forces are measured using a remote load-cell.
SBLI?
Yes
