Pugilistic Animus
I'm not entirely sure what you mean here; ... picture shooting a water hose at the wing head on - a good portion of the wing will have a steady stream flowing over it and however the back section of the wing may only catch droplets of water due to dispersion as you angle the wing up then more of the wing will catch the droplets...not entirely correct as an aerodynamic analogy though...
I understand what you're trying to say.
All Designs teams have designed planes w/o a full theoretical/computational analysis...there's always a difference between computed and actual flight characteristics...the base equations are themselves inexact...
Yes, but there are theoretical rules of thumb to take into account scaling differences right?
Yes,...
...more turbulence =more math chaos
Okay
low Rn numbers generally mean poor lift and drag characteristics... due to the laminar transition to turbulent against an adverse pressure ratio...
What's an adverse pressure ratio?
flow separation may be delayed in at low Rn but the shear-effect drag is more pronounced.
And what's shear drag?
