F18 Fighter Jet LEX Aerodynamics Podcast #170
from Premier Aerodynamics Podcast · host Premier Aerodynamics
F 18 fighter jets have LEXs (leading edge extensions). What are their aerodynamics? How do they help the plane fly? How do they create vortices and what happens when you pitch and yaw the jet to these vortices? Find out in this podcast! CHECK OUT our new OpenFoam CFD course that covers everything from literally installing it to running your own DES simulations, and everything in between: https://premieraerodynamics.com/Courses/ CHECK OUT our new Intermediate CFD course that covers what you need to go into industry and do high quality simulations: https://premieraerodynamics.com/Courses/ Want an easy way to make your experiments 2-4% more accurate? Check out The Atmosphere Hawk to make your aerodynamic experiments better: https://premieraerodynamics.com/Atmosphere-hawk Paper: https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADA236534.pdf #Aerodynamics #Aero #f18 #Lex #Lexaerodynamics #F18Lex #LeadingEdgeExtensions #LeadingEdgeExtension #LERX #LeadingEdgeRootExtension
