    The Cross-Sectional Area of the wing is a major factor in the production of lift.

    For STOL
    applications there is always a requirement of high C l values to reduce the distances.

    Although a wing with high span provides more lift during take-off and landing phases but there
    will be maneuvers and structural problems.
    Wings with short span are quite efficient at Cruise but it fails to deliver the performance
    required during take-off and Landing application.
    To overcome such problems, we can use high lift devices or make modifications in airfoil to
    achieve STOL.

    WHAT IS CFJ TECHNIQUE?


    The Co-Flow Jet Technique or CFJ airfoil has an injection slot and suction slots near the leading edge and
    trailing edge respectively of the airfoil suction surface. A high-energy flow jet is injected near the leading
    edge and some Mass flow is sucked near the trailing edge.

    It’s a Zero-Net mass Flux (ZNMF) flow Control technique i.e. The mass flow which is sucked into the
    suction slot is equal to mass flow rate which is pressurized and pumped-out through the injection flow.

    Typical CFJ airfoil

    3-D VIEW
    S.No. Title Author Remark
    1.  The author has Chosen a Baseline
    airfoil of NACA 0018 w.r.t it has
    designed a CFJ airfoil using CATIA-
    V5 for the CFD analysis in Ansys
    fluen using the Splarat-Allmaras
    Turbulence Model.
     Firstly, the baseline airfoil is
    simulated & the Aerodynamic
    Coefficients (C l & C d) vs α of the
    baseline airfoil were plotted for
    four different meshing.
     Similarly, Aerodynamic
    Coefficients for CFJ airfoil was
    AERODYNAMIC PERFOMANCE CM plotted and it was observed that
    ANALYSIS OF CO-FLOW JET Vigneswara there was a slight increase in C l
    AIRFOIL [1] n and decrease in C d.
    Vishnu  Furthermore, the paper also
    Kumar G C Investigates the aerodynamic
    performance of the CFJ airfoil for
    different injection & Suction slot
    location & it was concluded that
    C lwas increasing by varying the
    injection slot location away from
    leading edge keeping the suction
    slot fixed.
     On varying the injection slot
    location from 6% to 13 % at fixed
    82% suction slot the % increase in
    lift was observed 3.6 % to 31.9 %.
    The same with suction slot fixed at
    85% the % increase in lift was 2.58
    to 29.32%.
     The Paper Investigates the use of a
    Simple high lift device in addition
    to the CFJ airfoil with a Baseline
    airfoil of NACA- 6415.
     The leading edge and trailing edge
    of the CFJ airfoil has been
    converted into flaps i.e as a high
    lift device to enhance the L/D ratio
    and Increase L.
     C l and stall margins are not
    sensitive to Suction slot location.
    Haolin ZHI, So, it’s wise to choose a location
    AERODYNAMIC PERFOMANCE Zhenhao to minimize the work of the pump.
    2. ENHANCEMENT OF CO-FLOW JET ZHU, Yujin  Although the aerodynamic
    AIRFOIL WITH SIMPLE HIGH LIFT LU, parameters were enhanced using
    DEVICE [2] Shuanghou additional LE and TE flaps, the stall
    DENG, margin decreased due to the long
    Tianhang camber of the airfoil.
    XIAO  The location of the Suction Slot
    should be in TE flap rather than in
    the main airfoil, as at High α
    there will be massive flow
    separation.
     Thus, High lift device with CFJ
    airfoil is beneficial for STOL
    applications at Low α .

    .  The paper investigates the


    Performance of a Modified Co-
    Flow jet Aerofoil where the author
    has used a C-D nozzle at the
    leading edge to reduce the load on
    K. Balaji, the pump and increase the overall
    EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS Saranya, effectiveness and not just the
    3. ON THE PERFORMANCE OF A Gaikwad aerodynamic parameters.
    MODIFIED CO-FLOW JET Pranoti  The use of NACA 6415 baseline
    AIROFOIL [3] Vijaykumar, airfoil was used in addition to that
    Patil Ankita both Experimental & simulation
    Ravindra tasks were carried out for analysis
    of the performance.
     It was thus seen that the C l was
    higher by 43% at high α compared
    to baseline airfoil. It was also seen
    that at low α the drag was 60%
    higher and at highα the drag was
    15% higher than the Baseline
    airfoil.
     The drag polar of the experiment
    was quite in favor of the MCFJ
    airfoil.
