Aircraft
Acting as Pilot Flying I noticed that the flaps were not deploying when I was commanding flap settings during a visual approach backup by an ILS approach. I therefore executed a go-around and transferred controls once stabilized and level at 2;000 ft. I [advised ATC] and then completed the QRH Trailing Edge Flap Disagree and Non-Routine Landing Considerations checklists. Once configured flaps 15 per QRH we executed a visual approach backed up by an RNAV (GPS) approach. I then cleared the runway and made a PA to the passengers. I proceeded to the gate and we completed all checklists and AML (Aircraft Maintenance Log) entries. I called Dispatch to answer all questions that he had as well as talked with local Maintenance.
