There is an interesting article in Flying magazine by Peter Garrison that talks about lift theory. [...] Oh yeah, the article also pretty much discounts Bernoulli as having anything to do with why a wing produces lift. The Bernoulli equations aren't wrong. It is a simply a case that they apply ONLY to a set of streamlines. Once the streamlines are determined, the Bernoulli equation should be able to tell you the lift of an airfoil. Explanations that point to Bernoulli and then fail to discuss how and whence the streamlines are determined for a problem are bound to lead to confusion and misunderstanding. |
