- Definição1
- The point, usually on the chord line, through which the total reaction (sum total of all aerodynamics forces) may be considered to act. The center of pressure is not a fixed point but moves with changes to the angle of attack.

- Definição2
- The imaginary point where the resultant of all aerodynamic forces of an airfoil is concentrated.

- Definição3
- The point where the resultant of all the aerodynamic forces acting on an airfoil intersects the chord.

- Definição4
- The point along the chord line of an airfoil through which all aerodynamic forces are considered to act. Since pressures vary on the surface of an airfoil, an average location of pressure variation is needed. As the AOA (angle of attack) changes, these pressures change and center of pressure moves along the chord line.
