Hello,
I'm working on some new software to simulate aircraft - light C172 types.
I've found this website that describes the lift equation:
Modern Lift Equation
I'm wondering about simulating stall though. This is when the air separates along the wing. How does this work? I'm presuming as the angle of attack starts to get to steep we modulate lift.
Anybody got any equations to share?
Also how does the nose drop work? A low air speed, means lift of wings is reduced which leads to nose drop. I am presuming that the COM is behind the wings so that when the lift is removed the rotation brings the nose down? Or am I way off here?
