Concluding Remarks• <strong>Static</strong> extended trailing edge (SETE) attached to aNACA0012 airfoil model is able to enhance the liftwhile the zero-lift drag is not significantly increased.• Camber effect caused by the SETE on the main airfoil.• Compared with Gurney and conventional flaps, SETEgenerates larger lift with smaller drag penalty- ideal <strong>for</strong>cruise flights.• SETE is mechanically simple to implement to existingplat<strong>for</strong>ms.
