Difference between Anti-shock body and Flap (aeronautics)

Anti-shock body vs. Flap (aeronautics)

An anti-shock body (also known as Whitcomb body or Küchemann carrot) is a pod positioned on the leading edge or trailing edge of an aircraft's aerodynamic surfaces to reduce wave drag at transonic speeds (Mach 0.8–1.0). Flaps are a type of high-lift device used to increase the lift of an aircraft wing at a given airspeed.

Similarities between Anti-shock body and Flap (aeronautics)

Anti-shock body and Flap (aeronautics) have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Royal Aircraft Establishment, Transonic.

Royal Aircraft Establishment

The Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE) was a British research establishment, known by several different names during its history, that eventually came under the aegis of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD), before finally losing its identity in mergers with other institutions.
