Difference between Coffin corner (aerodynamics) and Tailplane

Coffin corner (aerodynamics) vs. Tailplane

Coffin corner (also known as the aerodynamic ceiling or Q corner) is the region of flight where a fast fixed-wing aircraft's stall speed is near the critical Mach number, at a given gross weight and G-force loading. A tailplane, also known as a horizontal stabiliser, is a small lifting surface located on the tail (empennage) behind the main lifting surfaces of a fixed-wing aircraft as well as other non-fixed-wing aircraft such as helicopters and gyroplanes.

Similarities between Coffin corner (aerodynamics) and Tailplane

Coffin corner (aerodynamics) and Tailplane have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Angle of attack, Center of pressure (fluid mechanics), Critical Mach number, Fixed-wing aircraft, Helicopter, Lift (force), Mach tuck, Shock wave.

Angle of attack

In fluid dynamics, angle of attack (AOA, or \alpha (Greek letter alpha)) is the angle between a reference line on a body (often the chord line of an airfoil) and the vector representing the relative motion between the body and the fluid through which it is moving.

Center of pressure (fluid mechanics)

The center of pressure is the point where the total sum of a pressure field acts on a body, causing a force to act through that point.

Critical Mach number

In aerodynamics, the critical Mach number (Mcr or M*) of an aircraft is the lowest Mach number at which the airflow over some point of the aircraft reaches the speed of sound, but does not exceed it.

Fixed-wing aircraft

A fixed-wing aircraft is an aircraft, such as an airplane or aeroplane (note the two different spellings), which is capable of flight using wings that generate lift caused by the vehicle's forward airspeed and the shape of the wings.

Helicopter

A helicopter is a type of rotorcraft in which lift and thrust are supplied by rotors.

Lift (force)

A fluid flowing past the surface of a body exerts a force on it.

Mach tuck

Mach tuck is an aerodynamic effect whereby the nose of an aircraft tends to pitch downward as the airflow around the wing reaches supersonic speeds; the aircraft will first experience this effect at significantly below Mach 1.

Shock wave

In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance.
