The coefficient of skin-friction drag coefficient Cf, as conventionally defined, when used gives half the value of total drag.(a) True(b) FalseI have been asked this question by my college professor while I was bunking the class.My enquiry is from Laminar Flow in chapter Incompressible Flow over Airfoils of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Right choice is (a) True

The EXPLANATION is: The skin- FRICTION coefficient CF, has been defined for the skin-friction drag over one SURFACE only. So in order to calculate total drag, we need to multiply the result by 2.
