In aircraft design and engineering, air velocity represents the speed or rate at which air is moving in a particular direction. Air velocity is an important parameter for various applications, including engine design, aerodynamics, and airflow analysis.
The formula for calculating air velocity can be defined as:
- Air Velocity is the speed of the air, typically measured in meters per second (m/s) or feet per minute (ft/min).
- Airflow Rate is the volume of air passing through a specific point or area, typically measured in cubic meters per second (m³/s) or cubic feet per minute (CFM).
- Cross-Sectional Area is the area through which the air is passing, typically measured in square meters (m²) or square feet (ft²).
