Help Newtonian mechanics and Bernoulli/Venturi effect in generating lift

AI Thread Summary
Lift in fixed wing flight can be analyzed through both Newton's laws and the Bernoulli effect. Newton's model suggests using wing area and air pressure to calculate lift, while the Bernoulli effect involves pressure differences created by wing shape. Calculating lift from these principles separately is complex, with Newton's approach being more straightforward than Bernoulli's. Both methods present significant challenges when attempting to derive lift from first principles. Understanding these concepts is crucial for grasping the mechanics of flight.

Hello, this question is about lift in fixed wing flight (airplanes).

Is it possible to calculate separately the lift generated by:
- Newton's laws (wings deflecting air particles)
- Bernoulli effect (difference in air pressure above and below the wings caused by the shape of the wings(?))

Any suggestions on how to do this?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
this is just a suggestion

in Newton's model use the wing area A and the air pressure P=1/3 \rho v2 to calculate lifting force f=PA

for Bernoulli it's more complicated.
 
If you mean calculate from scratch, both are extremely difficult.

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'
We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
