The lift coefficient C L is defined by [2] [3] = =, where is the lift force, is the relevant surface area and is the fluid dynamic pressure, in turn linked to the fluid density, and to the flow speed.
A roll of aluminium foil. Aluminium foil (or aluminum foil in American English; occasionally called tin foil) is aluminium prepared in thin metal leaves.The foil is pliable and can be readily bent or wrapped around objects.
A foil is a solid object with a shape such that when placed in a moving fluid at a suitable angle of attack the lift (force generated perpendicular to the fluid flow) is substantially larger than the drag (force generated parallel to the fluid flow).
The NACA four-digit wing sections define the profile by: [2] First digit describing maximum camber as percentage of the chord.; Second digit describing the distance of maximum camber from the airfoil leading edge in tenths of the chord.
Hydrofoiling wingsail catamaran 17. A sailing hydrofoil, hydrofoil sailboat, or hydrosail is a sailboat with wing-like foils mounted under the hull.As the craft increases its speed the hydrofoils lift the hull up and out of the water, greatly reducing wetted area, resulting in decreased drag and increased speed.
A man wearing a tin foil hat. A tin foil hat is a hat made from one or more sheets of tin foil or aluminium foil, or a piece of conventional headgear lined with foil, often worn in the belief or hope that it shields the brain from threats such as electromagnetic fields, mind control, and mind reading.
