Data reduction
In this experiment, the lift
force, L on the Airfoil will
be determined by
integration of the
measured pressure
distribution over the
Airfoils surface. The
figure shows a typical
pressure distribution on
an Airfoil and its
projection .

Data reduction
The drag force, D on the
Airfoil will be determined
by integration of the
momentum loss found by
measuring the axial
velocity profile in the
wake of the Airfoil. The
figure shows how the wake
of the airfoil affects the
velocity profile.
