zero angle of attack
1Angle of attack — In this diagram, the black lines represent the flow of a fluid around a two dimensional airfoil shape. The angle α is the angle of attack. Angle of attack (AOA, α, Greek letter alpha) is a term used in fluid dynamics to describe the angle between …

3absolute angle of attack — The acute angle between the chord of an airfoil at any instant in flight and the chord of that airfoil at zero lift …
4Zero lift axis — When symmetric aerofoils are moving parallel to the chord line of the aerofoil, zero lift is generated. However, when cambered aerofoils are moving parallel to the chord line, lift is generated. (See diagram at right.)A cambered aerofoil… …

7zero-lift angle — The angle of attack at which an airfoil does not produce any lift. Its value is generally less than zero unless the airfoil is symmetrical. Pressure distribution on an airfoil at the angle for zero lift (–3°) …
8zero-lift chord — A chord taken through the trailing edge of an airfoil in the direction of the relative wind when the airfoil is at a zero lift angle of attack. See zero lift angle …
