Aerodynamics

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of the principles and applications of aerodynamics within the context of aviation for single and multiengine airplanes. Students will delve into the fundamental concepts governing the behavior of aircraft in flight, including lift, drag, thrust, and weight. Through theoretical study, practical demonstrations, and hands-on exercises, participants will explore topics such as airflow patterns over airfoils, wing design, stability and control, as well as the effects of various factors such as altitude, speed, and angle of attack on aircraft performance. Additionally, the course will cover the latest advancements in aerodynamic technologies and their impact on modern aviation. Prerequisite: PH201
