Requirements for a Valid Theory
1) A valid theory is a rational explanation of observed phenomenon
2) A valid theory can be used to predict future observations
3) A valid theory produces numerical results

For a lifting airfoil, the average pressure on the upper surface is lower than the average pressure on lower surface.
The difference in pressure produces the lift.
Generation of Lift
For a lifting airfoil, the surface static pressure varies from top to bottom and from front to back.
![Page 13: Linear Motion Lift Theories. Requirements for a Valid Theory 1)A valid theory is a rational explanation of observed phenomenon 2)A valid theory.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081516/551beaaf550346c3588b6298/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The ideal surface velocity varies from top to bottom and front to back. The surface of the foil is a streamline, so Bernoulli’s equation relates the surface velocity to surface pressure.
When we include viscosity, the surface velocity is zero, but the local velocity varies at the boundary layer edge.
Generation of Lift
Why does the surface static pressure vary top to bottom and front to back?
![Page 14: Linear Motion Lift Theories. Requirements for a Valid Theory 1)A valid theory is a rational explanation of observed phenomenon 2)A valid theory.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081516/551beaaf550346c3588b6298/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The flow must follow the surface contour (or the edge of the boundary layer). Flow can not pass through the airfoil.
What determines the values for the local surface velocity, and therefore the local surface pressure, and ultimately the amount of the lift?

What determines the values for the local surface velocity, and therefore the local surface pressure, and ultimately the amount of the lift?
Generation of Lift
The flow around the airfoil must satisfy the conservation laws:
Conservation of mass (continuity)Conservation of momentum (2 or 3 components) Conservation of energy
