  • Aerodynamics is a complicated topic and will take a few videos to cover.
    Here we look at the very basic elements of aerodynamics:
    - the effects of pressure
    - air flow
    - balance of forces
    - how to manipulate air

    I have a degree in aerospace engineering so there's nothing here that I don't already know, but these videos are still an absolute delight to watch. On top of that, the way you visualized the air molecules separating from each other underneath the wing is genius, and I've never seen it like that before. Bravo!

    First of all, I'm excited for this aerodynamic series because F1's aerodynamic is one of the main thing that got me into watching F1. Second of all, I haven't finished watching this video yet, because you just explain the word "aerodynamic" as "aero" and "dynamic" it's a whole new word to me now.

      Aerodynamics + Hydrodynamics = Fluid dynamics
      ∴ Aerodynamics + Hydrodynamics - dynamics = Fluid
      (Aero + Hydro - 1)dynamics = Fluid
      Dynamics = Fluid/(Aero + Hydro - 1)
      Since: Aero = Air = Fluid
      Since: Hydro = Water = Fluid
      ⤷ Fluid/(Aero + Hydro - 1) = Fluid/(Fluid + Fluid - 1)
      ∴ Dynamics = Fluid/(2Fluid - 1)
      Since: Dynamics = Movement
      ⤷ Movement = Fluid/(2Fluid - 1)
      ∴ Comment = Pointless waste of time

      @skepticmoderate5790 Před 6 lety

      ThefatGerbil "∴ Comment = Pointless waste of time" Yup, you were doing some funky shit with algebra near the end there. Early you implied that Aero + Hydro = Fluid, but then later you said Aero = Fluid and Hydro = Fluid, which would imply that Fluid ^ 2 = Fluid, which is nonsense.

    As someone finishing up a semester studying aerodynamics, this is a really solid explanation of how airfoils function (as downforce is just upside-down lift)! It's always impressive when something complicated can be simplified down to a few minutes without resorting to partially true explanations.
