Question:

The symmetrical diamond-shaped airfoil shown in Figure P8.8 is operating at a \(3^{\circ}\) angle of attack. The flight speed is \(M=1.8\), and the air pressure equals 8.5 psia.

(a) Compute the pressure on each surface.

(b) Calculate the lift and drag forces.

(c) Repeat the problem with a \(10^{\circ}\) angle of attack.
