Across
- 4. any structure designed to produce an aerodynamic force by interacting with the flow of air around it
- 5. Direction of airflow relative to the wing when the wing is moving through the air
- 9. last place air makes contact with the airfoil
- 11. curve of the wing
- 14. upper and lower surfaces of the airfoil are identical
- 15. Imaginary straight line connecting the leading and trailing edges of an airfoil
- 16. First place air makes contact with the airfoil
Down
- 1. Linedrawn between the leading edge and trailing edge so that the distances between the upper and lower lower surfaces of the airfoil is equal
- 2. Point where the airfoil has the greatest height from top to bottom
- 3. Point on the airfoil with the greatest distance between the mean camber line and the chord line
- 6. angle between the chord line and direction of the relative wind
- 7. Upper surface of the airfoil has greater curvature than the lower surface
- 8. states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction
- 10. Study of the motion of air and the forces acting on bodies in motion relative to air
- 12. Principle that states that an increase in speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure
- 13. force that acts perpendicular to the relative wind of the line of flight
