An extension to work by NACA was presented for a square flap opening from a large cavity to a transonic turbulent boundary layer. For flap angles from 18 to 45 deg, the discharge coefficients decrease at given stagnation pressure ratio between the cavity and the freestream. This loss of performance is likely linked to competitive flow features. At a given flap deflection and Mach number, dimensionless discharge increases nearly linearly with pressure ratio
