Question 1
Applying the continuity equation to incompressible, subsonic flow through a streamtube, what happens to the flow velocity as the cross-sectional area of the tube decreases?
Correct Answer:
The velocity increases
Question 2
According to Bernoulli's theorem for incompressible flow, if the static pressure in a streamtube decreases, what must happen to the dynamic pressure, assuming total pressure remains constant?
Correct Answer:
Dynamic pressure increases
Question 3
Dynamic pressure (q) is calculated using which expression, where rho is air density and V is true airspeed?
Correct Answer:
1/2 x rho x V^2
Question 4
On a conventional cambered aerofoil at a small positive angle of attack, the chordwise point of lowest static pressure (suction peak) is normally located:
Correct Answer:
Near the leading edge on the upper surface
Question 5
What is the definition of the chord line of an aerofoil section?
Correct Answer:
The straight line joining the leading edge to the trailing edge
