Determination of the air forces and moments produced by the ailerons of an airplane

As a rule, the actual lift distribution at the wing tips shows deviations from the theoretical distribution, so that an approximate evaluation of the distribution may be regarded as satisfactory. After a few brief remarks on the fundamentals of the exact computation, the method will be so presented that the lift distribution for deflected ailerons may be determined for other values of the parameter p from the results already obtained. Coefficients will then be given in the form of diagrams and numerical tables, from which the desired forces and moments can be easily obtained by substitution in the given equations.
