Why does a reflexed trailing edge improve aerofoil stability?

[danny2010]

What is the advantage of having reflexed trailing edge. How does it improve the stability of the aerofoil. Reflexed wing are generally used in tailess planes. Can anyone explain to me...with proper pressure distribution details.

What i know about it is... Reflexed trailing edge and convexed lower surface are the two modifications on an aerofoil to restrict the movement of Center of pressure with AOA, and increase the stability

Sounds like a homework question.

Have you tried Google to discover their uses and get the details?

I found some rather interesting articles on the subject.

Hi james,
This is not my home work question. I am an aeronautical engineering, i am appearing for my exams for FTE( Flight Test Engineer) this feb. I just wanted my basics to be strong.

If possible.. help me in explaining how reflexed and convexed lower surface restrict the movement of Center of pressure with angle of attack, there by increase stability.

It is still schoolwork, so it qualifies for the Homework Help forums. Please post your schoolwork questions here, in the HH forums.
