06.02.2023Damn. I knew I would have rocked it at MIT. Why did I end up being an artist instead 😛

06.02.2023Her theory about how a wing produces lift is wrong! It’s caused by the faster moving air going over the wing. At least that’s my take on it especially after reading NASA saying that

06.02.2023i love how in 8-minutes i learned that something i learned in high school circa 1999 is wrong.

06.02.2023I've been totally confused by this explanation. At 6:19, equal transit is said to be wrong; that there is not acceleration to bring the split airstreams back together at the trailing edge, Then, at 12:34, we have accelerated airflow without a means of increasing velocity bringing Bernoulli's principle which requires that the fluid be "pinched" or constricted to increase the velocity and decrease the pressure. This contradictory since there is not a barrier above the airfoil to contain the airstreams.
Doug McLean | Common Misconceptions in Aerodynamics, in https://youtu.be/QKCK4lJLQHU explains why Bernolli's principle does not create low pressure on top of the wing, rather that the bending of the airstream in each layer causes an increaing pressure gradient across each airstream layer above the airfoil and even extending above and in front of the leading edge.
Also, Krzysztof Fidkowski | How Planes Fly https://youtu.be/aa2kBZAoXg0 goes into easy-to-grasp concepts that brings you to the ,"Wow, now I get it" moment.

05.02.2023Lift….that elusive phenomenon cause of which mankind has yet to discover.
No it's not bernoulli, it's not equal-time, it's something yet unknown.
Remember always ! …. it's the airfoil that moves in static air, still air has ZERO momentum. Nothing flows, streamlines and flows exist only in windtunnels. In real world air is still….calm. Now apply principles of Bernoulli or fluid dynamics to this situation.
Then comes buoyancy…. as perplexing as simple lift.
I have a challenge who can completely, satisfactorily, describe lift and buoyancy.

1909, from French fuselage, from fuselé "spindle-shaped," from Old French *fus "a spindle," from Latin fusus "a spindle" (see fuse (n.)). So called from its shape.

05.02.2023I have a doubt.
Why is there no boundary layer separation from the top portion of the wing. How are you sure that the low pressure air flows down along the trailing edge.
I always thought that the boundary layer separation and the turbulent air which comes after it created the low pressure. So the difference in pressure tried to push the plane span wise(trying to curl in from the tips. As you can see the vortex at tips of the wings, which curls anticlockwise due to the pressure difference) and chord wise upwards.

04.02.2023I got my Ph.D. in fluid mechanics and am happy to see someone finally correctly explain how airplanes fly. As she explained, the correct reason is not complicated at all, as anyone who has ever held their arm and hand out of a car window knows.

04.02.2023Push down – yep right (sic). Make experiment with hair dryer and toilet paper. No down wash is required to generate lift. Another trash on YouTube and brainwash for students.

Steven Nagley
04.02.2023Equal transit theory may not work on typical airfoil profiles… however if the profile or airfoil is fully symmetrical and if the camber is 0 then the molecules would meet at the same time, think of the vertical stabilizer… or horizontal stab. At 0 degree AOA

03.02.2023Appreciate the beautiful English she speaks. But since when has good English been a plus but not a minimum qualification for anyone who teaches at a university?

penguin pepper
02.02.2023when it talks about the spoilers on a racecar. Think of it like the car is generating lift and that reduces traction and also can make the car lighter by trying to lift it up. The spoiler prevents the lift and keeps the car weighed down to increase traction

02.02.2023Seriously? MIT? This is mediocre. I found this a comedy lecture. Thank god for the level of education in Indian Engineering colleges is way higher. Very ordinary school-level lecture. Why she needs the help of so many slides? Why need to read from sheets? So haphazardly arranged. It lacks 3 things 1) the level of knowledge and 2) the delivery of the content. 3) the order of points to be taught, so many goof-ups.
