A discussion on wind energy systems involved with the DOE wind energy program is presented. Some of the problems associated with wind energy systems are discussed. The cost, efficiency, and structural design of wind energy systems are analyzed.
The analytical concept used in determining the characteristics of jet flap or related propulsive systems suitable for VTOL and STOL applications was examined. The configuration chosen was a two dimensional wing with a biplane flap, having a jet injected on the upper surface of the wing at the flap hinge axis and discharging into the channel between the two elements of the flap. The experimental work was conducted in a two dimensional test installation in a subsonic wind tunnel. The model description, the test conditions, and a summary of the experimental results are presented.
