  1. How does speed affect lift? - Aviation Stack Exchange

    Sep 3, 2019 · The lift equation is idealized. The coefficient of lift versus angle of attack curve changes as speed and/or wing chord change. This is why air foil calculators like XFOIL also …

  2. When calculating the lift coefficient, what area is used?

    3 Reference area for the aerodynamic coefficients (lift, drag, moment) is the planform area. Your picture shows only one wing, while the reference area S would also take into account the …

  3. Ground effect and Lift coefficient - Aviation Stack Exchange

    Jul 17, 2021 · Is there a correlation between the lift coefficient and the proximity between the wing and the ground? I know that the lift coefficient is dependent on angle of attack; However, …

  4. aerodynamics - Where can I find data tables for lift and drag ...

    I'm teaching an introductory course in fluid dynamics and I'd like to show some "real" data regarding drag and lift forces on an airfoil. It is easy to find data on the geometry of typical …

  5. How to calculate the Lift Coefficient for the A320?

    May 4, 2015 · Note that this lift coefficient is for the total aircraft. It includes the lift of the wing, the fuselage lift and also the negative lift of the vertical stabilizer. There is also a small vertical …

  6. What is the relationship between the design lift coefficient and the ...

    May 18, 2021 · And the section lift coefficient of an airfoil. I was doing a CFD project and was planning to compute the section lift coefficient of different airfoils, and comparing them to the L …

  7. Is there a simple relationship between angle of attack and lift ...

    Is there an equation relating AoA to lift coefficient? I have been searching for a while: there are plenty of discussions about the relation between AoA and Lift, but f ew of them give an …

  8. aerodynamics - why lift coefficient decreases at supersonic flow ...

    Oct 7, 2023 · In Anderson's performance book, he wrote that the higher the speed, the greater the pressure difference between two points, and as a result, the lift coefficient is greater. But when …

  9. airfoil - How could I find 𝐶𝐿𝛼 lift coefficient slope? - Aviation Stack ...

    May 26, 2019 · The lift coefficient slope is the ratio of a small increment of CL to the corresponding small increment of AOA. Since your curve is reduced to a straight line the result …

  10. How can I estimate the coefficient of lift for take off?

    Mar 24, 2022 · For many airplanes the lift-off lift coefficient is determined by the maximum pitch angle before a tail strike occurs (minus some safety margin, of course). Before take-off, the …
