    why is the airflow above of the wing faster than the airflow below the wing?

    • @JxJAVIATION
      @JxJAVIATION  Год назад +1

      The shape of the airfoil causes the air flow to accelerate.

    • @johnnoonan5802
      @johnnoonan5802 7 месяцев назад +1

      Its on account of the curve on the upper surfce,,, as the air stream is passing over the curved surface faster than the lower surface of the wing ,, you have pressure differentilal also which gives the wing lift to take the craft off the ground and fly high in the sky , please ask the questions dont be shy to ask ,, its easy now with computer aided stuff like Utube ,, it was more difficult 40 years ago trying to grasp this stuff ,, now its way easier

    • @karhukivi

      Because the upper surface is curved upwards and the air has a longer path to travel, especially if the wing is pitched up.

      The pressure over the top and bottom surface will be equal so no lift is created.

    Is a 'positive camber'when the camber line is above the chord line. And 'Negative camber' when the camber line is below the chord line?

    If an increase in angle of attack increases lift, isn’t lift because of angle of attack?

    • @them0leisback
      @them0leisback 8 месяцев назад +1

      No, there is also lift happening at 0 degrees angle of attack.
      If you choose a higher AOA, you are of course increasing lift, but at the same time drag is also increasing. So there's an optimal point where lift/drag ratio is best, usually lower than 5 degrees AOA

    The authors have two wrong scientific approaches: researching the creation of Lift force and Low pressure at upper side of the wing, relative to the ground surface and Earth. I explain the aerodynamic cavitation and existence of Lee side aerocavern, and creation of Aerodynamic force.

      @@JxJAVIATION When a solid body in fluid is displaced, in its previous place in a moment, in a small time lag that cannot be measured, there is/was a "cavern in the fluid".
      The body moving through the atmosphere pushes and swept out the air along the way and creates an aerocaverne - a zone with subatmospheric pressure on it backside.

    • @vlatkopopovski2685
      @vlatkopopovski2685 2 года назад

      Lift is not upforce! In the dictionary, Lift means pick up and move to a different position. In aerodynamics, Lifting is a lateral moving, Lift is component of the aerodynamic force that "displaces" an object from the line of air flow.

  • @awaisiqbal9783
    @awaisiqbal9783 Год назад

    the lift force is actually due to Newton 3rd law and not because of Bernoulli's theorem..
