Extract

The result derived in a previous paper for the primary effect of the jet mixing on the thrust is confirmed, both by an investigation using momentum principles and by a quantitative examination of the sink effect. Boundary layer behaviour still cannot be predicted with accuracy, but it is suggested that, even under cruising conditions, a jet flapped aerofoil may exhibit unconventional properties.
