An experimental investigation of airfoils with perforated Gurney-type flaps
The Gurney flap can provide an increase in lift with a small drag penalty up to a flap height of approximately 3% of the chord. For flap height larger than 3% chord (herein referred to as Gurney-type flap), there is a significant increase in drag, causing a deteriorating lift-to-drag ratio. In this...
