Slotted Flaps Pitching Moment
Been researching this but can't find a direct answer:
Is the increase in nose down pitching moment from deployment of flaps
any more for a single slotted flap vs a plain flap, all other factors
being the same? If a design that used a plain flap was switched to
slotted while keeping the areas etc, the same, is more tail volume
required to compensate?
