Difference between Lift-to-drag ratio and Range (aeronautics)

Lift-to-drag ratio vs. Range (aeronautics)

In aerodynamics, the lift-to-drag ratio, or L/D ratio, is the amount of lift generated by a wing or vehicle, divided by the aerodynamic drag it creates by moving through the air. The maximal total range is the maximum distance an aircraft can fly between takeoff and landing, as limited by fuel capacity in powered aircraft, or cross-country speed and environmental conditions in unpowered aircraft.

Similarities between Lift-to-drag ratio and Range (aeronautics)

Lift-to-drag ratio and Range (aeronautics) have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Angle of attack, Lift (force), Thrust specific fuel consumption.

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.

Lift (force)

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