Should have mentioned
groups had a full 50 minute class period to work on it....another to
discuss it

Hi Robert
Here is an exercise from an aerodynamics course.......check the result
summary......great way to present students answers that fosters great
student discussions
In short, to solve this problem fully, students had to:
- determine the velocity field around the wing (this required quite
involved numerical analysis in the topic of potential flow)
- identify a region in the flow field with flow speed and direction that
met requirements stated or implied in the problem
- use the potential flow results to compute the drag force on the pitot
tube to ensure stiffness and strength were sufficient
- ensure the pitot tube was sufficiently far away from the boundary
layer (viscous flow effect region) on the wing
This exercise tied together the three major course elements to that
point (potential flow, boundary layers, and force coefficients) and
introduced them to the next major element (airfoils).
I also have attached a lesson learned document from a mechanical design
course from last year
Jim

Hi
Would it be possible to get a copy of your pitot tube exercise and the
result chart??
I would love to use it as an example......in my next TBL workshop.
Thanks
Jim
