Product Details
|
A reference for engineers and students, this volume devotes more than 300 pages to theoretical and experimental considerations. It progresses from elementary materials to methods used in the design of NACA low-drag airfoils, and it presents techniques for using wing-section data to predict wing characteristics. Requires differential and integral calculus and elementary mechanics. 1949 edition.

Great Supplement,

This review is from: Theory of Wing Sections: Including a Summary of Airfoil Data (Paperback)
I use this for my Aerodynamics courses (recomended by prof.). It is a great supplement to our book "Fundementals of Aerodynamics" by Anderson. Great buy for the price.

The classical approach and text to section design,
By Dr Drieux (Panorama City, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Theory of Wing Sections: Including a Summary of Airfoil Data (Paperback)
I have worn out two copies of this in my professional days, and I am doing so again with my 'hobby' copy. It is much handier that the on-line references for NACA data and for doing the 'quick flip through' when thinking about design. It is not, however, for either the mathematicall un-initiated, nor for the first-time designer. The book is both thorough and rigorous in its treatment of the topics it covers. All in all, along with the other standard texts, it supplies the needed data ad information when thinking 'I wonder if that will work...'

A must for Aerospace Students or Engineers.,

This review is from: Theory of Wing Sections: Including a Summary of Airfoil Data (Paperback)
Even if the book is old, it's the base of the airfoil understanding, because of the data included. Don't look for strange things here, just the classic stuff, but very complete.
