About This Product
Placing a model in the flume flow and reading the load cell lets students measure the lift or drag force on it directly. Because the parallelogram rejects bending moments, the reading reflects only the force on the model, which keeps comparisons between shapes simple. Schools, colleges and institutes in Japan, Somalia, Belarus, Guinea-Bissau and Mauritius can order the Lift and Drag Module from Educational Instrument.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Lift and Drag Module use a parallelogram?
The articulated parallelogram resists bending moments, so only the force on the model, not the moment, is passed to the load cell.
