The essential assumption of airfoil being a flat plate with a zero angle of attack gives accurate results always.(a) False(b) TrueI had been asked this question in final exam.The above asked question is from Laminar Flow topic in division Incompressible Flow over Airfoils of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Right option is (a) False

The BEST I can explain: This assumption is a first order approximation and the results become more accurate as the AIRFOIL gets thinner and angle of attack approaches zero. It gives good results but the LEVEL of ACCURACY varies.
