JoshTheEngineer | Explained: NACA 4-Digit GUI Part 2/10 [MATLAB] @JoshTheEngineer | Uploaded May 2015 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
This is the second video in my 10-video series on coding a program in MATLAB to compute, display, and save a NACA 4-digit airfoil.
IN THIS VIDEO:
We clean up the GUI layout after opening the .fig file in GUIDE. We make the widths of the components the same, as well as align boxes and buttons horizontally and vertically.

![Explained: Lift Curve [Airplanes]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tF_Z1lz7HKw/hqdefault.jpg "Explained: Lift Curve [Airplanes]
Lift curves are available for various airfoils and provide data relating the lift coefficient of the airfoil to the angle of attack. The lift curves described in this video are for 2D (infinite wing) airfoils. Actual 3D wing lift curves are complicated by 3D effects such as spanwise flow and tip vortices. See the links below for actual NACA data for both a symmetric and a cambered airfoil.
Angle of Attack:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm2Az-PgPUU
NACA 0012 (Symmetric):
- The lift curve to look at is the lower of the two sloped lines
- Notice that at zero AoA, the lift coefficient is zero
- The horizontal lines are moment coefficient plots, which you can ignore for now

NACA 2412 (Cambered):
- Lift curve is the left of the two plots
- Notice that the zero lift AoA is negative (approx. -2 degrees)

Rain gutters are little strips of material above doors that allow you to stay dry as you get on or off a plane. They also help keep the interior of the plane dry.

This is the first video in a series of videos about the supersonic flow over a cone at 0 degrees angle of attack. This is also known as Taylor-Maccoll conical flow, after the two guys that derived the equations and obtained solutions for this type of problem.
This video aims to introduce the general problem description and lay out the basic steps for the derivation/solution. More videos will follow as described in the video.")

Sometimes functions return too much information, or more than you need/want. To suppress some of the output and keep your code clean, you can use a tilde in the place of variables.")
