slot hardenberg The function of the slot between an extended slat and the leading edge of the wing is to cause a venturi effect which energizes the boundary which the aerofoil leading edge moves forward to form the slot, a “slat” in today's language The slat doubles the maximum lift coefficient Handley Page
