An Aerodynamicist`s View of Lift, Bernoulli, and Newton
An Aerodynamicist`s View of Lift, Bernoulli, and Newton

... Most single-engine Cessna aircraft have used this airfoil since the 1940s, which almost certainly makes it the most widely used airfoil in the world. The equaltime-of-passage picture of lift-producing flow patterns leads to the seemingly logical yet incorrect conclusion that this airfoil could not p ...

... that flow velocity in the channel is sufficiently small. This is a brave conclusion in spite of the cautious qualification. It is quite possible he was influenced by the model of a rolling ball (see Box 1 in Part 1) which may roll without slipping at low velocities but may slip at higher velocities. ...

... Measure the masses in kilograms of a wide range of solid objects. Then measure their voumes. Use a micrometer or vernier callipers to measure their dimensions if they are regular, or use the method of displacement of a volume of water by a solid with irregular shape. The density can be calculated by ...

... This principle states that a body wholly or partially immersed in fluid is buoyed up with a force which is equal to the weight of the volume of fluid the body displaces and which acts vertically upwards through the centre of gravity of the immersed part of the body. The buoyancy force need not act t ...

... is due, in part, to the function of a heavy vehicle, which is designed to carry as much cargo as possible. Thus, the shape of the cargo-carrying portion of the heavy vehicle is boxy in nature with many sharp edges. While this shape allows for a large cargo volume and easy access into the cargo bay, ...

Drag (physics)



In fluid dynamics, drag (sometimes called air resistance, a type of friction, or fluid resistance, another type of friction or fluid friction) refers to forces acting opposite to the relative motion of any object moving with respect to a surrounding fluid. This can exist between two fluid layers (or surfaces) or a fluid and a solid surface. Unlike other resistive forces, such as dry friction, which are nearly independent of velocity, drag forces depend on velocity.Drag force is proportional to the velocity for a laminar flow and the squared velocity for a turbulent flow. Even though the ultimate cause of a drag is viscous friction, the turbulent drag is independent of viscosity.Drag forces always decrease fluid velocity relative to the solid object in the fluid's path.
