Description: Discusses the role of boundary-layer separation in producing longitudinal and lateral components of force on a moving body. Illustrates various conditions of separation and methods of separation control. Points out the distribution of pressure around typical body profiles and its relation to the resulting drag, to the variation of drag with body form, and to pertinent aspects of the flow pattern. Demonstrates structural failure of unstable sections. , Examines the role of boundary layer separation in producing longitudinal and lateral components of force on a moving body. Shows distribution of pressure around typical body profiles and its relation to resulting drag, the variation of drag with body form, pertinent aspects of the flow pattern. Demonstrates cross thrust on rotating bodies, forced vibration of cylindrical bodies, structural failure of unstable sections, the principles of lifting vanes and their characteristics in application.
