Lift-Enhancing Tabs on Swept, Three-Dimensional High-Lift Systems

Lift-Enhancing Tabs on Swept, Three-Dimensional High-Lift Systems

The lift-enhancing tab is one way to achieve greater lift from multielement airfoil sections. A small mechanical tab placed at or near the trailing edge of an airfoil element, the lift-enhancing tab is similar to a Gurney flap.
