Basic Flight Aerodynamics ( PART -10 )

Few Important Definition On Aerodynamics : 

    Angle Of Attack  with relative airflow
  • Angle Of Attack (AOA) : Generally , AOA is the angle between airfoil chord line (line of a body) & relative airflow which acts oppositely. The AOA is so important in fluid dynamics, becuse Aircraft take off, land & gain altitude always depends on that angle.
  • Angle Of Incidence (AOI) : Longitudinal axis is making angle with aircraft (airfoil) wing is called Angle Of Incidence (AOI). It is also known as Manufacture angle.
  • Laminar Airflow : In which the streamlines are smooth & fluid elements move regularly along a streamline. 
  • Turbulent Airflow : In which the streamlines are break up & fluid elements move in a random & irregularly.   
  • Shock Stall : Shock stall is the separation of boundary layer & making disturbance. It is occurred, when the airflow is near by critical mach number (0.8-0.9).
  • Sonic Bang : When the aircraft (airfoil) move fast & faster at subsonic range, then toward to the sonic & supersonic range. when the airflow is passed sonic range or sonic range area is called sonic Bang.
