Evaluation of Thing's method for the calculation of the lift discription on a wing in propulsive jets

The calculation method presented by Ting, Liu and Kleinstein in reference 3 has been subjected to an evaluation study, principally on the basis of experimental data obtained from special experiments on a half wing immersed in two jets. Very satisfactory results were found for the unflapped wing lying centrally within the jets. Both flap...

Evaluation of Levinsky's method for the calculation of the lift distribution on a wing in propulsive jets

Based on comparison with results from special experiments, an evaluation has been performed of the method of Levinsky, Thommen, Yager and Holland, which is intended to calcxilate the spanwise lift distribution on wings immersed in propulsive jets. Various modifications of the original method have been investigated. It was found that the method,...
