Have you ever wondered what the protruding parts beneath airplane wings do? We will explore them in detail in this video. The details of flap activating mechanism is explained in this animated video.

Nice and lucid explanation. But the linkages should be designed to withstand the enormous wind force on the flaps while generating lift

Thanks for a great video, just out of curiosity: what kind of machine they have to move that green little thing? Just a normal electric motor? And does it require lots of power to move that? And lastly, would the flaps be deployed if that thing broke? (Due air flow to the pocket that moving the flaps makes?) Thank you in advance! :)

LE, you should do a video on Vortex Generators and leading edge technology such as slats and slots and how they contribute to lift. I thought most flaps are fowler flaps and operate via jack-screw.

@jamesfenton7338 6 жыл бұрын

I believe these are "Fowler Flaps" they extend and rotate downwards when actuated. Flaps don't have to extend, but it gives more wing area and more lift, and are more effective than a simple flap that just rotates into position.

I have 40 plus years of working on Jet Airliners.Started working life on B707, then B727, B737, B747, B757, B777, A310, A320, A330, A340, DC 8, DC 10. Have worked on D checks, C checks, Line Checks. Specialized in Airframes and Engines, with working knowledge of almost all the other systems on the planes In D Checks, aka Depot checks, we remove the engines, flaps, flap fairings, body fairings, slats, landing gears, cabin and cockpit seats, galleys, toilets, floor panels, ceiling panels, ....you get the picture; by the time we were ready to carry out inspections, she looked real naked! However, I have Never seen any Jet Airliner with flaps that work as shown here. The Closest I can think of is the DC 10, in the sense that it did not use motors and torque tubes. Even then what is shown here is totally alien to me. I have seen a couple of other videos about aircraft on this channel, and I get the impression they did not even consult any technical manuals and just dreamed it all up.

You failed to mention an important feature, as well as providing an aerodynamic fairing for the flap tracks, they are also used as Anti-shock bodies or Whitcomb bodies and reduce wave drag at transonic speeds between Mach 0.8-1.0 using the Whitcomb area rule

How about do away with this protruding thing at all by adopting somewhat old technology - double deck wing. I mean two wings or four major wings on commercial airplanes which would consume less fuel. Double stacked wings can generate breaking more with additional flaps between, upon landing, and simple control mechanisms can take those functions, which means airplane has to fly at slower but at efficient speed. Or they don't have to be stacked on one another but upper wing could be positioned a bit forward and at less aggressive angle just to give the bottom wing higher air pressure.

thanks for video, but it is not so obvious, that light green part moves faster then dark blue part

@arjunbatra2072 7 жыл бұрын

For me it was easy, though i dont know if the idea i have applied is correct. But i will try to give explanation: if we consider example of a hinged door regarding torque concept then perpendicular force applied on a hinged door is less and its speed of moving the door is high , when the contact point on the door is far away from the hinge but the more closer you get towards the hinge side of the door, then the force has to be increased still the speed gets slow and the door will move(rotate) slowly but with more force. Same is the condition here, the point moving at high speed is away from the joint(hinges in a door) so less force but high speed and vice-versa for another point.
