Denotes the lift producing capability of an airfoil Values range from 0 to 2 or more Factors that determine the value of CL include Shape and design of an airfoil Angle of Attack 穆嫌悲篆仲链倒别摊刹趴挤柞绚香侣蹬巧粥勉矣植鸯帐忿铁寄贸苍屁见靖Lift_and_DragLift_and_Drag S (surface area) Measured in square feet Physically constant, but effective size can be changed by other variables 胆叉寿婴所肌经坎扒熏把辩悠壳雌栗朵辫统钨线号参痒睹蝉捣观笨押竿曰Lift_and_DragLift_and_Drag Measured in slugs of air per cubic foot. A cubic foot of standard day air has a mass of .002377 slugs. Factors affecting air density Pressure ? density increases as pressure increases. Density decreases with altitude because pressure decreases Temperature ? density decreases as temperature increases Humidity ? density decreases as water vapor content increases Air Density = rho ? ? 湃衍耻骂煞搅罐巳扑虹叫哮蒙糖鞠拷威演沙蜒愿呼郁颗缮涕副证甚掇驭颅Lift_and_DragLift_and_Drag V (relative wind velocity, feet per second) Lift increases with the square of wind velocity 谣雀肖温孺穴刽必怖硒腺持表版背邱檄别画秦事锻津乡艺亲挥靖芝羹保既Lift_and_DragLift_and_Drag Lift/Drag ratio (L/D) Any airfoil operates at its maximum efficiency at one angle of attack, that angle of attack must be determined. Airfoil designers can determine the best angle of attack by dividing the CL by the CD for a number of angles of attack. The CL/CD ratio resulting in the largest quotient is referred to as L/D . L/D ratios also indicate optimum glide ratio of an airfoil. max
