Vertical perturbation velocity is the vertical component of velocity at a particular point in a fluid flow that deviates from the freestream velocity. It quantifies how much the vertical velocity differs from the velocity of the fluid in the surrounding undisturbed flow. v^ represents the vertical perturbation velocity at a specific point (in meters per […]

The Cp​ with perturbations is an extension of the standard Cp​ that includes the effects of perturbations or disturbances in the flow. It is calculated similarly to the standard Cp​ but considers variations in pressure due to these perturbations. Horizontal perturbation velocity (û) in m/s Freestream velocity (V∞) in m/s Pressure coefficient (Cp)

The ratio of static pressure (p) to freestream pressure (p∞​) with perturbations, often denoted as p/p∞​, is a dimensionless parameter used in fluid dynamics and aerodynamics to describe the pressure variation at a specific point in a fluid flow that includes perturbations or disturbances. Static pressure represents the pressure at a specific point in a
