Aeronautic terminology in dribs and drabs... <b>P as "Prandtl's Vortical Theory"<b>
Rome, Italy - The aerodynamic behaviour's study of the real world wings interested several fluid mechanics scientists, among which Lanchester, Kutta, Joukowsky and Prandtl
Following earlier leads by Frederick Lanchester, Prandtl worked with Albert Betz and Max Munk on the problem of a useful mathematical tool for examining lift from real world wings. The results are known as the Lanchester-Prandtl wing theory or lifting-line theory. The Prandtl vortex, that in the centre-line of the wing takes the maximum intensity (coincident with Kutta-Joukowsky), has a decrescent...
