  2. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

    In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack exceeds its critical value. [1] The critical angle of attack is typically about 15°, but it may vary significantly depending on the fluid , foil – including its shape, size, and finish – and Reynolds number .

  3. Dynamic stall on helicopter rotors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_stall_on...

    There are mainly two types of mathematical models to predict the dynamic stall behaviour: semi-empirical models and computational fluid dynamics method. With regard to the latter method, because of the sophisticated flow field during the process of the dynamic stall, the full Navier-Stokes equations and proper models are adopted, and some ...

  4. Lift coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_coefficient

    In fluid dynamics, the lift coefficient (C L) is a dimensionless quantity that relates the lift generated by a lifting body to the fluid density around the body, the fluid velocity and an associated reference area. A lifting body is a foil or a complete foil-bearing body such as a fixed-wing aircraft.

    Eddy (fluid dynamics) – Swirling of a fluid and the reverse current created when the fluid is in a turbulent flow regime; Non ideal compressible fluid dynamics; Plume (fluid dynamics) – Column of one fluid moving through another; Stall (fluid dynamics) – Abrupt reduction in lift due to flow separation

    For a further the explanation of stall and rotating stall, refer to compressor surge. The stall zone for the single axial fan and axial fans operated in parallel are shown in the figure. [4] The Figure shows the Stall Prone Areas differently for One fan and Two fans in parallel. [4] The following can be inferred from the graph :

  8. Forces on sails - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forces_on_sails

    Modern analysis employs fluid mechanics and aerodynamics airflow calculations for sail design and manufacture, using aeroelasticity models, which combine computational fluid dynamics and structural analysis. [8] Secondary effects pertaining to turbulence and separation of the boundary layer are secondary factors. [47] Computational limitations ...

  9. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    In fluid dynamics, dynamic pressure (denoted by q or Q and sometimes called velocity pressure) is the quantity defined by: [1] = where (in SI units): q is the dynamic pressure in pascals (i.e., N/m 2, ρ (Greek letter rho) is the fluid mass density (e.g. in kg/m 3), and; u is the flow speed in m/s.
