FLOW BODY, HIGH-LIFT FLAP OR MAIN WING OR FIN OF AN AIRCRAFT, AS WELL AS A STRUCTURE COMPONENT HAVING SUCH A FLOW BODY

摘要

An aerodynamic body with an aerodynamic body surface that creates a contoured surface for a fluid to stream around, with a device to influence the flow of the fluid streaming around the aerodynamic surface. The flow-influencing device includes a passage to link the fluid streaming around the aerodynamic surface with an actuator space of an aspirating and purging device situated in the aerodynamic body, and an indentation that is situated next to the passage, which is formed by a recessed section of the aerodynamic surface on a flow-influencing region within the contoured surface of the aerodynamic surface, so that a boundary wall is configured as part of the recessed surface lying opposite the indentation. The aspirating and purging device can generate a swirl in the flow of the fluid streaming around the aerodynamic surface, the rotational axis of which is directed along the assumed aerodynamic body chord direction.
