Is airfoil shape similar to blades of the propeller?(a) True(b) FalseI had been asked this question during an interview.This is a very interesting question from Airfoil Characteristics topic in chapter Incompressible Flow over Airfoils of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Correct CHOICE is (a) True

For explanation I would say: An AIRFOIL is the shape of a wing, blade of a propeller, rotor, and blades of a turbine. A propeller is a TYPE of fan that transmit power by converting ROTATIONAL motion in its thrust.Apressure DIFFERENCE is produced between the forward and rear surface of the airfoil-shape and fluid is accelerated behind the blade.
