Propeller Aircraft: Slow and Efficient (1x7)

Data di messa in onda: Mag 23, 2017

Apply concepts of lift and drag to propulsion, focusing on the internal combustion engine and propeller—still the most efficient power plant for aircraft flying at low speeds. Study the four-cycle engine and the design of propellers, which are rotating wings twisted to present an optimum angle of attack across their entire length.
