Total skin-friction drag on a plate refers to the cumulative aerodynamic drag force that arises due to the frictional resistance between the fluid flow and the surface of the plate. This drag force results from the shear stresses between the moving fluid layers and the plate’s surface and contributes to the overall resistance encountered by […]

Laminar skin friction drag just in region one, denoted as (Df,1)laminar, refers to the aerodynamic drag caused by friction between a laminar flow and the surface of a specific region 1 on an object, such as an airfoil or wing. This drag arises due to the shear stress between the relatively smooth and ordered layers

Turbulent drag just on region 2, denoted as (Df,2)turbulent, refers to the aerodynamic drag caused by friction between a turbulent flow and the surface of a specific region 2 on an object, such as an airfoil or wing. This drag arises due to the chaotic and irregular motion of the fluid particles in the turbulent
