The Air is deflected by the curved surface as shown. to draw the surface up by suction. As long as this wave form suctiontype of flow continues, the surface is in its most favorable attitude forefficiency, but at higher angles than ordinarily employed in flying thistype of flow breaks down, and a disruption of the streamlines follows,evideaced on the surface, by a great increase in resistance and fallin lift. The angle at which this change of flow occurs is called thecritical angle. 70. AMouffT OF A/eCf>*rtve ftlMT.
