Abstract: A leading-edge high-lift device according to an embodiment of the present invention is a leading-edge high-lift device that is deployable and retractable from/into a fixed leading edge of a main wing of an aircraft and includes a slat main body and a buffering portion. The slat main body includes a leading edge portion, a trailing edge portion that forms a gap between a trailing edge portion and the main wing during deployment, a cusp portion formed at a lower edge of the leading edge portion, a cove portion formed between the cusp portion and the trailing edge portion, and an inboard end surface that is formed between the leading edge portion and the cove portion and is positioned on a fuselage side of the aircraft. The buffering portion is provided at an inboard end portion of the slat main body including the inboard end surface and an inboard-side surface of the cove portion and reduces pressure fluctuations in airflow on the inboard end surface or the inboard-side surface of the cove portion.

Abstract: A leading-edge high-lift device according to an embodiment of the present invention is a leading-edge high-lift device that is deployable and retractable from/into a fixed leading edge of a main wing of an aircraft and includes: a leading edge portion; a trailing edge portion that forms a gap between a trailing edge portion and the main wing during deployment; a cusp portion formed at a lower edge of the leading edge portion; a lower surface portion formed between the cusp portion and the trailing edge portion; and a curved hump portion that is locally provided on a surface of the lower surface portion and protrudes toward the main wing in a cross-sectional shape perpendicular to a wing span direction of the main wing.

Abstract: A noise reduction apparatus, an aircraft, and a noise reduction method capable of increasing the amount of noise reduction are provided. The noise reduction apparatus 1 includes a porous plate 2 disposed to face a fluid flow, the porous plate 2 including a bend region 5 bent toward an upstream side of the fluid flow. The bend region 5 is provided at the end portion 6 of the porous plate 2, and has a concave R-shape on an upstream side of the fluid flow.

Abstract: [Object] To provide a noise reduction apparatus, an aircraft, and a noise reduction method capable of increasing the amount of noise reduction. [Solving Means] The noise reduction apparatus 1 includes a porous plate 2 disposed to face a fluid flow, the porous plate 2 including a bend region 5 bent toward an upstream side of the fluid flow. The bend region 5 is provided at the end portion 6 of the porous plate 2, and has a concave R-shape on an upstream side of the fluid flow. Although the direction of the fluid flow is typically deflected toward the outside from the center of the porous plate 2 due to the porous plate 2, the deflected fluid easily passes through the porous plate 2 since the porous plate has the bend region 5. Thus, the shear layer of the fluid flow is weakened, the noise induced by the vortex is reduced, and it is possible to increase the reduction amount of noise.

Abstract: A pressure measure sheet having a sheet shape and having a pressure measure surface, the pressure measure sheet being adapted to be arranged on a surface of a measured object, includes: a plurality of pressure measure ports provided through the pressure measure surface; at least one connection port adapted to be connected to a side of a pressure measure device; and a coupler part including a plurality of through-tubes penetrating the plurality of pressure measure ports and the at least one connection port, in which the pressure measure sheet includes a region in which the plurality of through-tubes are arrayed in nonparallel.

Abstract: A flap of an aircraft includes a flap body that is provided deployably with respect to a main wing, an inclined portion that protrudes from an upper surface of a tip part on at least an outboard side in a span direction of the flap body and is inclined with respect to an aircraft axis direction, and a protruding portion that smoothly protrudes from a lower surface of the tip part on at least the outboard side. A rear end of the inclined portion is located closer to a side end edge of the tip part in the span direction of the flap body than a virtual line that passes through a front end of the inclined portion and is parallel to the aircraft axis direction.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to reducing noise resulting from a wing tip vortex of a wing such as a flap. A flap of an aircraft includes a flap main body provided to a parent wing in a deployable manner, and a vortex generation portion including a protruding member, the protruding member being provided to protrude from an upper surface at least at an end of the flap main body on an outboard side in a span direction and forming a predetermined angle to an axial direction of the aircraft. A rear end of the protruding member is located on the side adjacent to a side-end edge at the end of the flap main body in the span direction relative to a virtual line passing through a front end of the protruding member and being parallel to the axial direction.
