Keywords: supersonic transport, high-lift device, vortical flow, aerodynamic performance

The objective of this study is to investigate effect of high-lift devices on aerodynamic performance of an SST configuration, and give insight into details of flow field at low speed and high angles of attack. Computation is conducted to solve the compressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with turbulence model.
