About this Course
Content
1. Physics of the Atmosphere
- International Standard Atmosphere (ISA), application to aerodynamics.
2. Aerodynamics
- Airflow around a body;
- Boundary layer, laminar and turbulent flow, free stream flow, relativeairflow, upwash and downwash, vortices, stagnation;
- The terms: camber, chord, mean aerodynamic chord, profile (parasite) drag, induced drag, centre of pressure, angle of attack, wash in and washout, fineness ratio, wing shape and aspect ratio;
- Thrust, Weight, Aerodynamic Resultant;
- Generation of Lift and Drag: Angle of Attack, Lift coefficient, Dragcoefficient, polar curve, stall;
- Aerofoil contamination including ice, snow, frost.
3. Theory of Flight
- Relationship between lift, weight, thrust and drag;
- Glide ratio;
- Steady state flights, performance;
- Theory of the turn;
- Influence of load factor: stall, flight envelope and structural limitations;
- Lift augmentation.
4. Flight Stability and Dynamics
- Longitudinal, lateral and directional stability (active and passive).
