Back to: "I"induced drag
- Definição1
- That part of total drag caused by the same aerodynamic factors that produce lift. Total drag is the sum of the parasite drag and the induced drag. Induced drag is dependent on the airfoil shape, its lift coefficient, velocity, weight, and aspect ratio. For a given airfoil, induced drag is directly dependent on the angle of attack. The greater the angle of attack up to the critical angle, the greater the induced drag.

- Definição2
- That part of the total drag that is created by the production of lift.
