Anyone dealing with a foil shape traveling through a fluid can find plenty of useful information in this book, if they understand enough about wing sections.
Amazon Second Chance Pass it on, trade it in, give it a second life. In two parts, this book has a math beginning and abundant graphical summary of airfoil performance. Engineer recipient was lost to conversation after opening this gift. I learned aeronautics to the Univ.

Many times they seek the quick and simple, not simplistic, heads up approach while not flubbing on the math. Someone borrowed my first copy and never return, because this book is too good. Product Description Product Details “Most useful in working with wing sections and methods for using section data to predict wing characteristics.
I highly recommend this book to any Aero Engineer or Aero student. The best part of this book, however, is the extensive series of airfoil data tables in the back. Mathematics has been kept to a minimum, but it is assumed that the reader has a knowledge of differential and integral calculus, and elementary mechanics.
I keep this book on hand for it’s comprehensive listing of various airfoils used in the aerospace industry. More formulas per page of any book I’ve seen. Don’t have a Kindle? My library Help Advanced Book Search.

Many designers or engineers dig into the graphical data section to explore well tried airfoils as a prelude to computer firmware analysis which may not divulge the underlying methods a given design is based.

However, large size and high tip-speed ratio are inherently related to material strength problems and low frequency noise emissions to the environment.
These wing sections, or their derivatives, continue to be the ones most commonly used for airplanes designed for both subsonic and supersonic speeds, and for helicopter rotor blades, propeller blades, and high performance fans.
