NACA came up with a family of ducts, Katie, that are referred to as submerged ducts, meaning they are mounted below the surface. There is the parallel wall, the straight divergent, and the curved divergent, which is popularly known as a "NACA duct". The straight divergent looks like the curved divergent except that its sidewalls are straight rather than curved, looking like a triangle.
The parallel wall would actually be a better choice in a lot of cases where you want a high flow volume, plus it is much easier to make and connect-to with an output duct. If you're going along at 200 mph and you have a parallel wall duct with a 1"W by 1"H by 8"L inlet, and the duct is flowing at 0.5 freestream velocity, you will get 61 CFM flow.
The usual NACA duct you see is not made correctly. It should not have a sharp edge outer lip at the inlet; it is supposed to be shaped like an inverted leading edge of an airfoil, and to keep from having separated flow, its downward ramp should be at no more than a 7 degree downward slope, so it should be at least 8.1 times as long as its opening is high. Too often also, the duct is placed on the fuselage right above the wing's leading edge where the pressure is low and sometimes, instead of air going in, it goes out! When this happens, you can make the air flow in by putting two VGs just at the start of the ramp with their leading edges pointed toward each other. The vortices shed by them will cause air to flow into the duct.
