Variable Pitch and fixed pitch Propeller; Wann ist die Efficiency gleich, wo nicht?
1. At the design point = Efficiency same 2. AT lower or higher air speed: Variable pitch propeller Efficiency is higher
advantage of fixed pitch propeller
Lower weight and less expensive
On which station teh propeller produce the lowest drag ?
feather position => 90 Grad
Why is the propeller blade twisted?
different relative wind directions requires twist to achieve the same AOA
4 propeller effects
1. Torque reaction
2. Corkscrew effect or slipstream effect
3. Gyroscopic abtion of the propeller
4. Asymmetric thrust of the propeller
1. Torque reaction of the propeller
4. Asymmetric thrust of the propeller => P-factor
Which aeroplanes have a large torque effect
light weight aeroplanes with high torque engines
How can we the slipstream effect compensated in cruise flight?
No compensation by pilot: aeroplane design is compensating
3. Gyroscopic abtion of the propeller => ywaing to teh left ==> ?

The angle of attack of a fixed pitch propeller blade increases when:
RPM increases and forward velocity decreases.
Asymmetric propeller blade effect is mainly induced by:
the inclination (Neigung) of the propeller axis to the relative airflow.
Force
Unit: N (F) force is an influence that causes a body to undergo a certain change in movement, direction or geometric properties
weight
the gravitational force onto a body => weight = mass x g
Mass
The resistance that a body exhibits in response to a force which accelerates or slows down the body.
Newton
m x a = F
Density
Masse per Volume
atmospheric pressure
weight of air column / area
statischer Druck
potential energy and acts in all directions
dynamischer Druck
acts only in the direction of the flow and expresses the kinetic energy P= air density v= m/s^2 statischer Druck in Pa
=>\(x = {1\over 2} * p * v^2 \)
Bernoulli says that an ideal and incompressible airflow is based on the assumption that
the total energy of a flow remains constant along a stream tube => v * A = constant !!!
hPa in Pa
700 hPa = 70'000 Pa
convergence
zusammenlaufen
low speed aerofoil => camber and wehere?
4% (4/100 of the chord length) and located 40% aft the leading edge
How might habe a negative camber?
the stabilizer might have a negative camber
Angle of Incident is a ....
Angle of Incident is a constant for a specific airplane ==> chosen that the airplane is horizontally aligned during cruise flight
Angle between the relative airflow and the horizon is the
climb angle
where occurs the min. static pressure on a aerofoil?
at the point where the streamlines are closest together
How generates the lift?
difference in static pressure between bottom and upper surfaces creates the aerodynamic forces.
The critical angle of attack at which a given aircraft stalls is dependent on the
design of the wing
In general terms lift is a result of
A reduction of pressure over the wing.
The lift force, acting on an aerofoil
is mainly caused by suction on the upperside of the aerofoil.
When an aeroplane is flying at an airspeed which is 1.3 times its basic stalling speed, the coefficient of lift as a percentage of the maximum lift coefficient (CLmax) would be
59%.
Dynamic pressure is
If density is kept constant, the dynamic pressure increases proportionally with
The square of the velocity.
