Abstract:
A drag reduction system for an aircraft may include an air ejector having an ejection port located between an aft portion of an airfoil main element and a forward portion of a trailing edge device. The air ejector may be configured to discharge an air jet from the ejection port in such a manner that the air jet passes over the upper surface of the trailing edge device.
