The Sail Area-Displacement ratio (SA/D) is a calculation used to express how much sail a boat carries relative to its weight. In the first equation, the denominator in pounds is divided by 64 to convert it to cubic feet (because 1 cubic foot of salt water weights 64 pounds). The denominator is taken to the 2/3 power to make the entire metric unit-less (without this, the denominator is in cubic feet, and the numerator is in square feet). It is an indicator of the performance of a boat. The higher the SA/D, the more lively the boat's sailing performance: SA/D, however, doesn't provide information about a boat behavior in a storm or upwind. A polar diagram from a velocity prediction program gives a more precise view. (Wikipedia).
In this video the flaps have 90 degrees rotation freedom and an airfoil shape. These allows flaps act like car spoilers which gives extra push to sail toward the wind which increases the efficiency of the turbine. Notice that even with one sail it moves toward the ventilator which acts as
