I mean that would create disturbances of airflow only at the turbine inlet

2019-07-28 14:28:41 UTC  

But not at the wings

2019-07-28 14:29:15 UTC  

You've got to deal with the slow moving air over the wing and the fast moving air away from the wing, though

2019-07-28 14:29:51 UTC  

Too much stress on the turbine blades to be mixing those airflows

2019-07-28 14:30:08 UTC  

You'll end up with compressor stalls

2019-07-28 14:30:32 UTC  

And the turbo fan will backfire

2019-07-28 14:31:26 UTC  

Also requires maintenance more often than when the engines are just offset from the wing

2019-07-28 14:31:42 UTC  

I can't find it, but there was a proof of concpet that used "air flaps"

2019-07-28 14:32:08 UTC  

I.e. the bypass air from a turbine was exiting through the slots at the ends of the wings

2019-07-28 14:32:30 UTC  

And depending on how it was directed it acted as flaps

2019-07-28 14:33:02 UTC  

Basically entire read edge of a wing was acting as an exhaust

2019-07-28 14:33:10 UTC  

So thrust vectoring?

2019-07-28 14:33:18 UTC  

no

2019-07-28 14:33:26 UTC  

but also yes

2019-07-28 14:33:55 UTC  

A picture would certainly help

2019-07-28 14:34:00 UTC  

Thrust vectoring inside the wings, not at the end of a turbine

2019-07-28 14:34:20 UTC  

Okay, I think I have it

2019-07-28 14:34:31 UTC  

I am trying to find it, but it may be that some military got interested and it went underground

2019-07-28 14:34:48 UTC  

So if the engines were off, the control surfaces would still work

2019-07-28 14:35:27 UTC  

But while the engines were on, the airflow was directed somewhat by the surfaces?

2019-07-28 14:35:41 UTC  

found it

2019-07-28 14:36:20 UTC  

there were many more articles about this

2019-07-28 14:36:29 UTC  

I wonder where they all went

2019-07-28 14:37:23 UTC  

It is based on the fluidics field of science

2019-07-28 14:37:55 UTC  

An art of affecting a flow of liquid (or air) with a smaller amout of controlled injection

2019-07-28 14:38:12 UTC  

Very much the transistor principle

2019-07-28 14:38:17 UTC  

But with fluids

2019-07-28 14:38:46 UTC  

And yes you can make a fluidic claculator based on this principle

2019-07-28 14:39:29 UTC  

I wonder how this one behaves in flight

2019-07-28 14:41:20 UTC  

Like shit, I imagine

2019-07-28 14:45:15 UTC  
2019-07-28 14:46:42 UTC  

the nazi one doesnt exist...
