What is a wake in fluid dynamics?
a wake ( in fluid dynamics) is the area of turbulence formed at the rear end of a moving object in fluid ( say, air or water) a wake ( in fluid dynamics) is the area of turbulence formed at the rear end of a moving object in fluid ( say, air or water)
Does the wing tip vortex on a plane cause turbulence?
Yes. This is part of what is called wake turbulence.
Why do airplanes wait after another plane has taken-off?
They wait to allow the wake turbulence from the first aircraft to dissipate. Wake turbulence from heavy jets and those with unique wing designs (such as the B-757) can be extreme and cause other aircraft to lose control. Larger aircraft that might not be affected by the preceding aircraft's wake turbulence can waive or reduce the time required before taking off.
Which weight class below produces the most powerful wake turbulence?
I thịnk ít the Airbus a380
What is wake turbulence?
"Wake turbulence is turbulence that forms behind an aircraft as it passes through the air. This turbulence includes various components, the most important of which are wingtip vortices and jetwash. Jetwash refers simply to the rapidly moving gasses expelled from a jet engine; it is extremely turbulent, but of short duration. Wingtip vortices, on the other hand, are much more stable and can remain in the air for up to three minutes after the passage of an aircraft. Wingtip vortices make up the primary and most dangerous component of wake turbulence. Wake turbulence is especially hazardous during the landing and take off phases of flight, for three reasons. The first is that during take-off and landing, aircraft operate at low speeds and high angle of attack. This flight attitude maximizes the formation of dangerous wingtip vortices. Secondly, takeoff and landing are the times when a plane is operating closest to its stall speed and to the ground - meaning there is little margin for recovery in the event of encountering another aircraft's wake turbulence. Thirdly, these phases of flight put aircraft closest together and along the same flightpath, maximizing the chance of encountering the phenomenon." -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake_turbulence
When departing behind a heavy aircraft the pilot should avoid wake turbulence by maneuvering the aircraft?
above and upwind from the heavy aircraft.
What has the author Mervyn Darryl Palmer written?
Mervyn Darryl Palmer has written: 'Asymmetric wake characteristics' -- subject(s): Wakes (Fluid dynamics), Turbulence
What are the causes of environmental turbulence?
Environmental turbulence can be caused by factors such as climate change, natural disasters like hurricanes or earthquakes, human activities like deforestation and pollution, and changes in global economic and geopolitical conditions. These factors can disrupt ecosystems, weather patterns, and natural resource availability, leading to increased uncertainty and instability in the environment.
How do you put turbulence in a sentence?
Planes are built to resist turbulence.
When was Turbulence Records created?
Turbulence Records was created in 2005.
When was Turbulence released?
Turbulence was released on 01/10/1997.
What was the Production Budget for Turbulence?
The Production Budget for Turbulence was $55,000,000.
