Question:
Explain how to find key airfoil aspects and related attributes of lift production for a Cessna 172
s a starting point and the minimum content to cover, a shortlist of considerations and discussion points are provided below and can be directly copied into your presentation.
A. Main airfoil for your selected aircraft
- Stall AOA and associated CLmax
- Zero-lift AOA
- Comparison of your main airfoil to a symmetric airfoil
B. Resultant attribute discussions for your selected aircraft
- Calculated stall speed
- How does lift change with airspeed if a constant AOA and altitude are held? (provide specific examples)
- How does lift change with altitude if a constant AOA and airspeed are held? (provide specific examples)
- How do the required CL and AOA for your specific aircraft (at a specific weight) change with changes in airspeed? (provide specific examples)
- What happens if the required CL is larger than CLmax of your airfoil, and what speed regime is usually associated with that condition?
