Design integration and noise studies for jet STOL aircraft. Task 7A: Augmentor wing cruise blowing valveless system. Volume 1: System design and test integration

Abstract

Exploratory design studies conducted to establish the configuration of an augmentor wing vruise blowing (valveless) system in a 150-passenger STOL airplane were reported in NASA CR-114570. Those studies have been updated to incorporate the results of static rig, flow duct, and wind tunnel tests. Minor adjustments in duct flow velocity, flap length, and blowing nozzle geometry were incorporated to provide airplane characteristics that minimize takeoff gross weight and achieve sideline noise objectives for an advanced commercial STOL airplane
