The NACA 64(l)–412 airfoil has a lift-to-drag ratio of 50 at 0° angle of attack. At what angle of attack does this ratio increase to 80?
Is there any conflict between the boundary condition respect to the airfoil surface and the induced velocity on the lifting line? Why?
Choose the most appropriate statement with respect to the pressure distribution of
an airfoil.
The flow velocities go to zero at the leading and trailing edge points.
Upper and lower surface pressures are lower than under free-stream conditions.
Upper and lower surface pressures are higher than under free-stream conditions.
O Lift is the difference between the lower and upper surface pressures.
