Impacts of external airfoil flaps on the S809 airfoil. [PDF]
The trailing edge flap is an effective airfoil flow control technique having many forms, including the external airfoil flap (EAF) which lacks deep studies. In this paper, the calculated results of computational fluid dynamics are first verified through experiments, and the impact of the EAF parameters on the aerodynamic performance of the S809 airfoil

Gust–Airfoil Coupling with a Loaded Airfoil
The unsteady load response of an airfoil encountering a gust is often modeled using analytical transfer functions, which assume idealized behavior of both the flow and the airfoil.
