Chapter 7. Expect the Test for F12 to be more in-depth in those sections
from the book.
EMEC 368 Introduction To Aerospace
Final Test, Closed Notes, 15 min max.
(20 pts total)
Name____________________________
1. (3 pts) For any given shape, coefficients of lift, drag, and moment are a
function of what three parameters? Angle of attack, Mach number, Re
2. (1 pt) Write down the range of maximum coefficient of lift cL for typical
airfoils. 1.5-4
3. (2 pts) What is the physical meaning of Pressure Coefficient
Ratio of difference between pressure and static pressure to dynamic
pressure
4. (3 pts) Write down the three sources of drag for airfoil
Friction, pressure, wave
5. (1 pt) T / F Maximum range and endurance is achieved at sea level for
propeller driven aircraft.
6. (2 pt) Write down the range of typical L/D ratios for aircraft.
8-21
7. (2 pts) Write down the Thrust required for level flight.
TR = W/(L/D)
8. (2 pts) Write down the equation for excess power in aircraft.
Ps = (T-D)V/W
9. (2 pts) What is the purpose of the V-n diagram?
Load and speed envelope
10. (2 pts) Write down the criteria for static longitudinal stability of an
aerodynamic system.
CM,0 must be Positive
CM,cg/a must be Negative
14. (3 pts) Write down the three sources of drag for airfoil.
15. (1 pt) T / F Maximum range and endurance is achieved at sea level for
propeller driven aircraft.
16. (2 pts) Write down the Thrust required for level flight.
17. (2 pts) Write down the equation for excess power in aircraft.
19. (2 pts) For an aircraft at flying at a thrust angle T in steady flight, write down
the equation of equilibrium in the horizontal direction in terms of lift, drag, and
thrust.
20. (2 pts) Write down the criteria for static longitudinal stability of an
aerodynamic system.
The thrust-specific fuel consumption is 1.0 N of fuel per Newton of thrust per hour, the
fuel capacity is 1900 gal, and the maximum gross weight is 136,960 N. (Assume that the
fuel weighs 6.67 lb/gal.)
At a standard altitude of 8 km, calculate:
a) (15 pts) The range.
b) (15 pts) The endurance.
