Читать книгу Flight Theory and Aerodynamics - Joseph R. Badick - Страница 45

After completing this chapter, you should be able to:

 Identify the important properties of the atmosphere that influence the aerodynamics of flight.

 Define standard pressure and temperature, and calculate pressure and temperature ratios when a standard atmosphere is not encountered.

 Summarize the relationship between pressure altitude and density altitude.

 Analyze the standard atmosphere table and recognize the change in atmospheric properties with a change in altitude.

 Define and compare the definitions for various types of altitude used in aerodynamics and illustrate why each type is important.

 Explain the relationship between the continuity equation and Bernoulli’s equation, and show how they apply to an aircraft in flight.

 Define and compare the definitions for various types of airspeed used in aerodynamics and illustrate why each type is important.

 Determine the true airspeed of an aircraft in flight.
