Abstract

To achieve short-take-off-and-landing (STOL) performance, numerous airframe/propulsion integration (API) technologies have been developed for military and commercial transports. Powered lift technology refers to a concept of utilizing the propulsion exhaust flows to increase lift through an increase in wing circulation []. Over the past seventy years, various concepts have been explored to accomplish this goal. From the point of view of technical characteristics, powered lift concepts can be sorted into three groups: a circulation control wing, blown flaps, and jet wing. Most of other concepts are slight deviations of these three.
