To provide methods and apparatus that reduce geometry variations associated with spoilers as a result of different loading and structural conditions during flight.SOLUTION: Described herein is a method for designing aerodynamic systems including spoilers or droop panels. The spoilers and the droop panels can be deployed on a wing with a flap system which provides a trailing edge variable camber (TEVC) system. During flight, the fixed portions of the wing, the flaps, the spoilers and the droop panels can all deform. The spoilers or the droop panels can each be pre-deformed into a first shape on the ground such that in flight the spoilers or the droop panels may deform into a second shape under aerodynamic loads. In the second shape, the spoilers or the droop panels are configured to adhere better to the flaps. The spoilers or the droop panels can be configured to adhere to the flaps in all of positions the flaps take as part of the TEVC system.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5A

    【課題】飛行中の異なる負荷及び構造条件の結果であるスポイラーに関連する形状寸法の変化を低減させる方法及び装置を提供する。【解決手段】スポイラー又は垂下パネルを含む空力システムとを設計する方法が記載されている。後縁可変キャンバ(TEVC)システムを提供するフラップシステムを用いて翼上にスポイラー及び垂下パネルを展開させることができる。飛行中に、翼の固定部分、フラップ、スポイラー及び垂下パネルが全て変形しうる。スポイラー又は垂下パネルの各々は、飛行中に空力負荷下で第2の形状に変形しうるように、地上において第1の形状に予め変形させておくことができる。スポイラー又は垂下パネルは、第2の形状において、フラップに対してより良く密着するように構成される。スポイラー又は垂下パネルは、TEVCシステムの一部としてフラップが占める全ての位置においてフラップに密着するように構成されうる。【選択図】図5A
