An airfoil is subjected to the flow with temperature of 288.16K and flow is ideal. The velocity at the leading edge is ____(a) 0m/s(b) 250m/s(c) 288.16m/s(d) 16.882m/sThe question was asked by my college professor while I was bunking the class.This intriguing question comes from Airfoil Selection-1 topic in division Airfoil and Geometry Selection of Aircraft Design

Answer»

The correct option is (a) 0m/s

Best explanation: GIVEN, TEMPERATURE T=288.16K

For IDLE flow, at leading EDGE flow is brought to rest isentropically.

Hence, velocity at leading edge = velocity of flow at the impact to leading edge = 0m/s.
