A plane or arched surface for sustaining bodies by its movement through the air; a spread wing, as of a bird.
Any solid body shaped such that as air or hot gas passes over it, it produces a useful force perpendicuar to the direction of relative motion; ie, wing or turbine blade
An Upside-down wing which helps to keep the car firmly on the track at high speed.
a device that provides reactive force when in motion relative to the surrounding air; can lift or control a plane in flight
a surface that adds lift when air moves over it
a wing shaped like the left diagram
a wing so shaped that (at subsonic speeds) air is accelerated over its rounded leading edge and curved upper surface, causing a reduced pressure above it
A device, much like an airplane wing, that creates lift and minimizes drag. The blades have an aerofoil shape, which creates lift when moving air passes over the surface.
The cross-section shape of a wing taken at right angles to the wing span. Also known as the wing section or rib section.
Type of upside-down wing used to keep the car firmly on the track at high speed. Ground-effects design shapes the body to provide downforce as well.
See hi-res picture The cross-sectional shape of a wing. It primarily determines the amount of lift and drag a boomerang generates.
A solid body such as a wing, rotor or propeller, designed to move through air and produce lift or thrust
