Feature
When the leading edge slat is released without slits, it is on
Wing lift
The effect is similar to that of leading edge flaps, that is, the lift is increased by increasing the wing area and the curvature of the airfoil. When the front edge slat is in the fully released state, its effect on lift is different from that of the leading edge flap. The gap between the leading edge slat and the leading edge of the wing has two effects on the lift coefficient of the wing. On the one hand, the air on the lower surface of the wing with greater pressure flows to the upper surface through the gap, which reduces the air pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces and plays a role in reducing the lift coefficient. On the other hand, the air on the lower surface of the leading edge slat wing flows close to the upper surface of the wing after passing through the gap, increasing the air kinetic energy of the upper surface boundary layer, delaying the occurrence of air separation, increasing the range of available Angle of attack, and increasing the lift coefficient. Whether the slotting of the leading edge slits increases the lift coefficient or decreases the lift coefficient is related to the Angle of attack. When the wing Angle of attack approaches or exceeds the critical Angle of attack, the air flow on the upper surface of the wing is seriously separated, resulting in a decrease in lift coefficient. In this case, the slit of the leading edge slits can delay the air flow separation and increase the lift coefficient by increasing the critical Angle of attack. When the Angle of attack is much less than the critical Angle of attack, the air flow separation on the upper surface of the wing is weak, and the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the wing will be reduced due to the opening of the leading edge slits, resulting in the reduction of the lift coefficient.
[13]
Lifting device
There are two leading edge flaps and four leading edge slats on the left and right wings of Boeing 737-800 aircraft. The leading edge flaps are located on the leading edge of the wing inside the engine, and the leading edge slats are located on the leading edge of the wing outside the engine. The left and right wings have two sets of receding double-slotted trailing edge flaps on the inside and outside of the engine. The trailing edge flaps are emitted 1, 5, 10, 15, 25, 30 and 40 units, of which 1 to 15 units of flaps are emitted to increase lift, and 15 to 40 units of flaps are emitted to increase both lift and drag. When taking off, the lift should be increased and the resistance should be avoided. Both lift and drag need to be increased before landing and grounding. When the 737-800 aircraft performance manual analyzed the relationship between the maximum take-off weight limited by the length of the site and the flap discharge, it found that an abnormal situation occurred when the flap discharge increased from 5 to 10. The maximum take-off weight for the field length limit corresponding to the flap release 10 is less than the maximum take-off weight for the field length limit corresponding to the flap release 5. In the process of increasing the flap discharge from 5 to 10 on the trailing edge of Boeing 737-800 aircraft, the leading edge slat has a significant change in the airfoil profile, and the leading edge slat has changed from unslits to fully slits. Therefore, the abnormal variation of the maximum take-off weight limited by the length of the field is caused by the change of the state of the leading edge slats. Other aircraft with leading edge slats, such as the Boeing 757, Boeing 767, Boeing 777, A320, etc., do not use the leading edge slats during takeoff, so the landing flap release is significantly greater than the take-off flap release. There are 1, 5, 10, 15, and 25 liftoff flaps, with 5 being the most commonly used liftoff flap discharge. Landing flaps are 40, 30, and 15 (not including 25), where 40 and 30 are normal landing flaps, and landing flaps 15 are only used at airports with high climb gradients for approach flights. The leading edge flaps and leading edge slats of a Boeing 737-800 aircraft move behind the edge flaps. The leading edge flaps have only two states: retracted and released. There are three states of the leading slat: retraction, release (no slat) and full release (slit). When the trailing edge flap release amount is 1, the leading edge flap is released, and the leading edge slat is also released (no slat). With the increase of the trailing edge flap release, the leading edge flap remains in the same release state. The leading edge slat is different from the leading edge flap. When the trailing edge flap discharge quantity increases from 5 to 10, the leading edge slat changes from unslat state to completely slat state. During the process of increasing the trailing edge flap discharge from 10 to 40, the leading edge slats remain fully discharged. At flap discharge of 1 and 5, if the aircraft is near a stall, the leading edge slats automatically change to a fully slapped state.
[13]
The effect of leading edge slits on the maximum take-off weight limited by the length of the field
Under standard atmospheric conditions, the standard field length required for the maximum take-off weight of a Boeing 737-800 aircraft is 2400m. The actual take-off weight is lower than the maximum take-off weight, and the field length of most airports is greater than the field length required for the Boeing 737-800 to take off, so the take-off flap release amount is usually selected 5, at which time the leading edge slats are released without opening. For airports with relatively short field lengths, flap release 15 or 25 May be used where the leading edge slats are fully released and the maximum take-off weight limited by the field lengths of flap release 15 and 25 is greater than the corresponding flap release 5. However, the length of the site is very short, and the maximum take-off weight limited by the length of the site may not meet the requirements by using a larger flap release. In this case, it is meaningful to make the leading edge slat wing not open during take-off. The field length of Santos - Dumont Airport in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is only 1465m, in order to make Boeing 737-800 aircraft can be used in the airport, Boeing Company changed the relationship between the leading edge slats and flap discharge amount for the Boeing 737-800 aircraft of Brazil Gol Airlines from 2005 to 2006. The leading edge slat is only opened when the flap discharge exceeds 25; In the case of flap discharge of 1 to 25, the leading edge slat can automatically change to the slat state when the aircraft approaches the stall. The maximum take-off weight limited by the length of the site increased by 1700kg when the leading edge slat was not opened during takeoff. The opening of the leading edge slat will reduce the lift force, resulting in a higher lift-drag ratio of the unslotted leading edge slat than that of the open leading edge slat, so the non-opening leading edge slat increases the maximum take-off weight.
Leading edge slat position
(1) The slit of the leading edge slat reduces the maximum take-off weight limited by the length of the field, the maximum take-off weight limited by the climb gradient, the maximum take-off weight limited by the obstacle, and the take-off decision speed increased.
(2) The opening of the leading edge slits during the take-off of Boeing 737 aircraft can prevent the aircraft from stalling, but it reduces the take-off performance.
