505 0 How and why does a wing generate lift? -- The bound vortex
-- Frictionless air cannot provide lift: a paradox -- Drag,
a nightmare or a challenge, depending on your point of
view -- Pressure: The Bernoulli principle and flow energy
conservation -- Pressure, pressure, it's all about
pressure! -- Putting it all together in the real world --
The jet: fluid in motion -- Propulsion for flight: power
or thrust? -- The compressor: engine keystone -- Bypass --
Other components of the jet engine -- More components:
inlets, mixers, and nozzles
506 Open access
520 This open access book is an introduction for the lay
reader to understand the basics of flight. The exposure is
to the mysteries of lift generation by wings and the basic
function of the jet propulsion engine. The text relies on
simple descriptions of the physics of air flow without
unduly involving mathematics. The text is richly
illustrated with sketches and photographs to enrich verbal
descriptions. The book takes the viewpoint that a reader
does not have a background in the engineering of airplane
components but is interested in the subject. The
description is in terms of easy-to-understand terminology,
occasional use of humor, references to everyday
experiences, and occasionally to an algebraic relationship
when that is unavoidable. This book would serve a student
aspiring to be an engineer to begin grappling with the
phenomena involved and the techniques used to analyze
these phenomena. The practitioner, as well as the beginner,
in the art of flying an airplane is well served with the
knowledge exposed here. The text makes no apology for
technical complexity. Its introduction is rigorous and
provides a sound footing for further study
