stem of equations, then, with an. indefinite number of equations for an infinite number of unknowns, the solution of which in this form is not yet possible. The aspect ratio of the wing appears in these equations as a parameter, and it is clear that the solution for a small aspect ratio, i. e., \… … aspect ratios and for greater ratios Fig. 50.—Change in distribution of lift, as a funcllon of L, the parameter of Betz. becomes more and more uniform; for very elongated wings it approaches gradually a rectangular distribution. Figure 50 shows this change in the distribution depending upon L. The…
