Re: AoA keep it going!

I've seen an airfoil/windtunnel online simulation somewhere
on the NASA site, but can't find the link right now.
A similar, even better online simulation called JavaFoil
can be found on Martin Hepperles site www.mh-aerotools.de.
Hepperles site is good reading anyway, lots of interesting
aero stuff, resource to dig in. However, I don't think any software can be close as
convincing as an even crude homemade education windtunnel.

FoilSim. Very easy to use. You can increase the angle of attack and
watch the airflow separation plus lots more:

what a pity these guys at the NASA don't even know that the AOA at stall is not
10° but 18° ;-)
