Understanding the Design of Airfoils and Wing Dihedral
The design of airfoils and wings involves key terminologies like mean chamber line, leading edge, trailing edge, chord line, and camber. Dihedral is an important aspect of wing design that affects stability and control. Aerodynamic forces on a wing, like lift and drag, are crucial for flight perform
