A slight vacuum “pulls” the wing in the general direction of the curved side, while the impacting air on the flat side forces the wing away from the flat side. A sheet of plywood can be a wing if its AOA is carefully controlled. This leaves me thinking the greatest “force” is the one acting on the flat side of the wing. The question still remains: how can a conventional airfoil “fly” while upside down? Because this is KZbin, I will automatically disagree with whatever responses I receive. Thanks.

Trying to explain the lift, people tell that pressure difference above and under a wing causes it, or a wing just adds a downward momentum to an air. It's hillarious these two groups disagree with each other and both provide correct explanations at the same time. Commentary: the first explanation is based on analysis of applied forces and the second utilizes momentum concervation law shortcut

LOLOLOLOLOLOL........Well duh, it does travel faster going over the wing, that's how it generates lift. It's called the Bernoulli principle. As velocity increases pressure decreases.
@christopheryellman53314 күн бұрын
The equal transit times debunked, yes. However, the statement "it's the curvature that creates lift" is still misleading, it seems to me. Take a flat board and move it through the air and it will generate lift if it has a positive angle of attack. It is the pressure differences that directly generate the lift. The curvature of the wing facilitates smooth air flow, which increases the efficiency of the airfoil.

Roofs are lifted in storms due to suction.. low pressure by the wind speed over the top. Not an extra force applied underneath .. a differential. Yes there is pressure from the wind on the underside of the wing, but you can see a vortex effect on the top as the wing gets thinner (sucky, suck, suck). The tilt on take off and lnding .. ground effect (rolling ball of air) .. fast flight- the underside is nearly flat. School 1sf physics: get a sheet of paper, hold front two corners, blow across the top = lift.
@mkk3a15 күн бұрын
Sooo... the air moving over the top surface is faster, so the pressure is lower, and the lift force is greater. So despite the small error in the common explanation, the overall concept is still true. Faster air movement → lower pressure → pressure difference → lift force Or am I still misunderstanding?
@blusheep215 күн бұрын
That is how I took it. The end result of the experiment is that on the most crucial part of the upper surface of the wing, the flow of air appears to be almost twice as fast.

Lift is the air being accelerated downward; which accelerates the plane upwards. Simple newtonian physics.

Agreed MPC. All this talk about wing shape is secondary. A well shaped airfoil smooths the flow, making the wing more efficient but not changing the root cause.

Speeding up means lower pressure. Also the air hitting the bottom surface creates a reaction. So two ways the wing is lifted. It isnt complicated.

I dont know where people get the idea that the air meets up at the end, its silly. I also know that this isnt the only effect that allows planes to fly, its also the angle of the wing, the wind "strikes" and.pushes the bottom of the wing on an upward angle, forgot what the effect is called but its something you can mimick outside a window

well I dont think its silly. I understood it to be this way - if they dont meet up, then there would be a vacuum which is not possible. But in fact (according to my understanding now) there is turbulent flow at the end. - not silly - just misunderstood..

Im sorry, that wasnt a very nice answer. Pause at 0:57. Look at the lines. The upper stream is vertical and the bottom is diagonal. If the upper stream had any speed change it would be diagonal aswell. An airspeed speed-up at the top would mean the sand lines would rotate counter clockwise (or paralell to the bottom line), but they dont.

So does this mean that the moving air is pushing the wing up afterall?
@domonkosludvig331419 күн бұрын
Only if the wing is at an angle like here... Otherwise lift on a wing shape is generated by the absence of pressure at the top, while pressure at the bottom stays relatively the same. So if the wing is not at an angle lift is because of the vacuum pulling from above, not the air pushing from below. Do note zhat when i say not at an angle, i say that the bottom side of the wing is paralell to the airstream, and the top is not. That angle on the top makes the vacuum and the lift. Sorry for the essay. Have fun imagining it! :)

@@domonkosludvig3314 Do not apologise my friend, thank you very much for the explanation. I'm a bit dumb and am trying to get my head around it! 😂 So I'm guessing this method is much more efficient than air pushing the wing up from below? Also, can a stall occur when the lift is changing from pushing the wing up from below to vacuuming the wing up from above?
@domonkosludvig331418 күн бұрын
Yes! Efficiency is what makes this shape powerful, you got it! Do you mean when the plane stops lifting its nose up? I would say it does not stall. I think when the angle of a wing changes, the flow of air stays the same above the wing, it does not stick to the surface, so if the wings are returned to a paralel state they do not experience a sudden and brief pressure from above, if thats what you were thinking, if not, please elaborate.

The end of the upper surface of the wing , or the end of the effective area , as seen by the flow separation ,,, ?
I had a question, why does it matter if the molecules reach the end of the airfoil at the same time, if the molecules at the top surface reach earlier, it would mean that they are faster and there by the lift force would be generated via bernoulli's principle.
@franksizzllemann56282 ай бұрын
Look how the smoke lines are compressed together underneath 0:55 , the wing is riding on the compressed air underneath, not simply being sucked upward by low pressure. The top surface is what allows control. When the airflow over the top becomes disrupted by AOA for example the wing stalls, it loses control. The upper surface may provide a little "lift" but the lower surface provides "heft," so to speak.

0:42 I don't see that it "speeds up as it approaches the airfoil". If anything, it appears to lag behind the smoke in the undisturbed airflow at the top of the screen. If the air doesn't accelerate over the top of the wing, how can it generate the well established low pressure which generates the lift from the top surface?

This comment is making me angry. You are throwing away a logical idea, because it sounds wrong. The upper surface does create thrust, its just expereinced as less drag. Think about it, if the wing is not moving, the upper surface is not gerenrating thrust, so no rules of the universe are broken. This is what makes a shape more aerodynamic. That thrust is real. Man i really need to publish a paper on aerodynamics, humans (except for me for some reason) are garbage at aerodynamics.
