The tip flow of a part span slotted flap

Extract
The work to be described forms part of an experimental study into the overall influence that the end region of a flap has on the flow of a high lift wing system. Here, our attention will be restricted mainly, but not entirely, to the tip flow of the flap itself.
The study has been a collaborative venture over the past three years between British Aerospace-Civil Aircraft Division and the Aerospace Engineering Department of Bristol University, the latter funded by an SER.C research grant. BAe's major contribution was the undertaking of the main test programme, with University participation, using a large swept wing, high lift half model in the Filton low speed wind tunnel. The model was loaned by RAE for the study.
