- 2. Types of Wings& Configurations Pros & Cons Parts of Wings High lift devices Airfoil & its types Dimensioning of Wing parameters Aerodynamics of Wing Content
- 3. Wing Types Easy toconstruct Less cost to construct Greater Aileron control Better stall characteristics Aerodynamical inefficiency is quite less. Rectangular Wing
- 4. Lower induced drag,more lift Better efficiency Thicker at the root where the bending moment is greatest, allowing the wing spar to be lighter. Moderately Tapered Wing Difficult to construct Comprise between efficiency & manufacurabilty Highly Tapered Wing
- 5. Swept Back Reduced dragat transonic speed High speed commercial aircrafts More lateral stability Less turbulence
- 6. Elliptical Wing Delta/PointedWing Most efficient Minimum drag Poor manufacurability
- 7. WING CONFIGURATIONS Mid Wing HighWing Low Wing Stable Less maneuverable Well balanced & large control surface area Highly Maneuverable Comparitively stable Maneuverable
- 8. PARTS OF WINGS RIBS Theribs give the wing its cambered shape and transmit the load from the skin and stringers to the spars. S P A R S The spars are the principle structural members of a wing. They support all distributed loads, as well as concentrated weights such as the fuselage, landing gear, and engines.

- 11. 1.Ailerons Ailerons are flightcontrol that roll the airplane along longitudinal axis. Airplane movement - Roll Axes of rotation - Longitudinal Type of stabilty - Lateral

- 13. 2. Flaps Mounted ontrailing edge of the wing. Used to reduce takeoff and landing distance. Flaps extend, lift and drag distribution rises.

- 15. 3. Flaperons Combines thefunction of ailerons and flaps. Flaps are used to create lift or drag depending on their use, while ailerons keep the plane from rolling over. Flaperons reduce weight.

- 17. AIRFOIL The cross-sectional shapeof the wing is called an airfoil. The airplane generates lift using its wings.
- 18. Airfoil terminology Chord: Extendsfrom leading edge to trailing edge of the wing Camber line: Points halfway between chord and upper wing surface

- 23. Wing span The distancefrom the tip of one wing to the tip of the other. Wing Area The projected area of the planform and is bounded by the leading and trailing edges. Root Chord A distance between leading and trailing edge at the begining of the wing. Tip Chord A distance between leading & trailing edge at the end of the wing. 1 2 3 4
- 24. Aspect Ratio Ratio ofwingspan to its mean chord i.e ratio of square of wing span to wing area. Taper Ratio Ratio of tip chord and root chord of wing lengths. Mean Aerodynamic Chord A chord where total/max lift generally acts. Aerodynamic Centre A point where pitching moment doesn't vary with lift coefficient i.e resultant moment with respect to angle of attack is zero. 5 6 7 8
- 25. Aerodynamics Aerodynamics is thestudy of forces and the resulting motion of objects through the air. Studying the motion of air around an object allows us to measure the forces of lift, which allows an aircraft to overcome gravity, and drag, which is the resistance an aircraft “feels” as it moves through the air. Bernoulli's Principle on Aircraft An increase in velocity leads to an decrease in pressure. High Pressure Low Pressure Low Velocity High Velocity
