Abstract
In recent years there has been considerable interest in the possibility of providing high speed aircraft with the capability of vertical or short take-off and landing (V/STOL). One method for achieving V/STOL is to use lifting engines or fans, the aerodynamic interference effects of which are not yet fully understood. Experimental work on this problem has been done by Jordinson, Otis, Vogler and research workers at the British Aircraft Cor-poration, but no satisfactory theoretical analysis is known. The object of this paper is to put forward a semi-empirical method for predicting the aerodynamic interference of an exhausting jet on a uniform mainstream flow past a wing.
