Spoilers deployed to slow down for descent on a Qantas Boeing 7. In aeronautics, a spoiler sometimes called a lift spoiler or lift dumper is a device intended to intentionally reduce the lift component of an airfoil in a controlled way. Most often, spoilers are plates on the top surface of a wing that can be extended upward into the airflow to spoil it. By so doing, the spoiler creates a controlled stall over the portion of the wing behind it, greatly reducing the lift of that wing section. Spoilers differ from airbrakes in that airbrakes are designed to increase drag without affecting lift, while spoilers reduce lift as well as increasing drag. Spoilers fall into two categories those that are deployed at controlled angles during flight to increase descent rate or control roll, and those that are fully deployed immediately on landing to greatly reduce lift lift dumpers and increase drag. In modern fly by wire aircraft, the same set of control surfaces serve both functions. Spoilers are used by nearly every glider sailplane to control their rate of descent and thus achieve a controlled landing. An increased rate of descent can also be achieved by lowering the nose of an aircraft, but this would result in increased speed. Spoilers enable the approach to be made at a safe speed for landing. Airliners are almost always fitted with spoilers. Spoilers are used to increase descent rate without increasing speed. Their use is often limited, however, as the turbulent airflow that develops behind them causes noise and vibration, which may cause discomfort to passengers. Spoilers may also be differentially operated for roll control instead of ailerons Martin Aircraft was the first company to develop such spoilers in 1. On landing, however, the spoilers are nearly always fully deployed to help slow the aircraft. The increase in form drag created by the spoilers directly assists the braking effect. However, the real gain comes as the spoilers cause a dramatic loss of lift and hence the weight of the aircraft is transferred from the wings to the undercarriage, allowing the wheels to be mechanically braked with less tendency to skid. In air cooled piston engine aircraft, spoilers may be needed to avoid shock cooling the engines. In a descent without spoilers, air speed is increased and the engine will be at low power, producing less heat than normal. The engine may cool too rapidly, resulting in stuck valves, cracked cylinders or other problems. Spoilers alleviate the situation by allowing the aircraft to descend at a desired rate while letting the engine run at a power setting that keeps it from cooling too quickly especially true for turbocharged piston engines, which generate higher temperatures than normally aspirated engines. Spoiler controlseditSpoiler controls can be used for roll control outboard or mid span spoilers or descent control inboard spoilers. Proshow Producer Stylepack Volume 5. Some aircraft use spoilers in combination with or in lieu of ailerons for roll control, primarily to reduce adverse yaw when rudder input is limited by higher speeds. For such spoilers the term spoileron has been coined. In the case of a spoileron, in order for it to be used as a control surface, it is raised on one wing only, thus decreasing lift and increasing drag, causing roll and yaw. Spoilerons also avoid the problem of control reversal that affects ailerons. Almost all modern jet airliners are fitted with inboard lift spoilers which are used together during descent to increase the rate of descent and control speed. Some aircraft use lift spoilers on landing approach to control descent without changing the aircrafts attitude. One jet airliner not fitted with lift spoilers was the Douglas DC 8 which used reverse thrust in flight on the two inboard engines to control descent speed however the aircraft was fitted with lift dumpers. The Lockheed Tristar was fitted with a system called Direct Lift Control using the spoilers on landing approach to control descent. Airbus aircraft with fly by wire control utilise wide span spoilers for descent control, spoilerons, gust alleviation, and lift dumpers. Especially on landing approach, the full width of spoilers can be seen controlling the aircrafts descent rate and bank. Rubber Powered. Modern Rubber. Souper 30, CAM 402. Contest winning P30 design.

Airfoil-5.0.1.jpg' alt='Airfoil Cracked' title='Airfoil Cracked' />Lift dumperseditLift dumpers are a special type of spoiler extending along much of the wings length and designed to dump as much lift as possible on landing. Lift dumpers have only two positions, deployed and retracted. Lift dumpers have three main functions putting most of the weight of the aircraft on the wheels for maximum braking effect, increasing form drag, and preventing aircraft bounce on landing. Lift dumpers are almost always deployed automatically on touch down. The flight deck control has three positions off, automatic armed, and manual rarely used. On landing approach automatic is selected and, at the moment of touchdown, lift dumpers are deployed in a fraction of a second, with flight control spoilers also being raised automatically as additional lift dumpers. Virtually all modern jet aircraft are fitted with lift dumpers. The British Aerospace 1. A number of accidents have been caused either by inadvertently deploying lift dumpers on landing approach, or forgetting to set them to automatic. Incidents and accidentseditAir Canada Flight 6.

July 2. 00. 7 under one theory of the cause, they used an old procedure, which reduced the required runway length for landing but was superseded because it invited pilot error, which required them to leave the engine in idle rather than reverse thrust, and mistakenly left the engine at full power. The planes spoilers may have been their only method of braking at speed. The plane slid off the runway, over a major highway, and ploughed into a warehouse, killing all 1.
