edge of stall

  • 1Stall (flight) — For other uses, see stall. In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack increases. This occurs when the critical angle of attack of the foil is exceeded. The critical angle of attack is… …

  • 3stall strip — A small triangular spoiler attached to the inboard leading edge of some wings to cause the inboard section of the wing to stall before the tips. This ensures lateral control of the wing throughout the stall. A stall strip is parallel to the… …

  • 8Dynamic stall — is a non linear unsteady aerodynamic effect that occurs when aerofoils rapidly change the angle of attack. The rapid change can cause a strong vortex to be shed from the leading edge of the aerofoil, and travel backwards above the wing. The… …
