They show an almost linear increase in lift coefficient with increasing angle of attack with a gradient known as the lift slope. For a thin airfoil of any shape the lift slope is π 2 /90 ≃ 0.11 per degree. At higher angles a maximum point is reached, after which the lift coefficient reduces.

If an impeller has only a few blades (i.e a large pitch), it will result in less lift force and in a similar manner for more blades (i.e. very low pitch), there will be high drag force. Blade solidity should not be confused with rotor solidity , which is the ratio of the total area of the rotor blades to the swept area of the rotor.
Lift is proportional to the density of the air and approximately proportional to the square of the flow speed. Lift also depends on the size of the wing, being generally proportional to the wing's area projected in the lift direction. In calculations it is convenient to quantify lift in terms of a lift coefficient based on these factors.
Assuming 1.0 kN/m 2 is applied for oiled steel formwork; Suction force: S = A x 1.0 kN/m 2 = 18 x 1.0 = 18 kN; Applied loads at element lifting (sling angle and lateral tension) F = W x Ksl x Ks x 0.5 = 64.8 x 1.16 x 1.2 x 0.5 = 45.1 kN; Anchor capacity for initial lift F/n = 23 kN per anchor during initial lift (n = 2 lifting anchors)
A pinwheel calculator is a class of mechanical calculator described as early as 1685, and popular in the 19th and 20th century, calculating via wheels whose number of teeth were adjustable. These wheels, also called pinwheels, could be set by using a side lever which could expose anywhere from 0 to 9 teeth, and therefore when coupled to a ...
