FIFI'H EDITION L E. LoH oughton PW Carpenter Aerodynamics for Engineering Students Frontispiece (see overleaf) Aircraft wake (photo courtesy of Cessna Aircraft Company). This photograph first appeared in the Gallery of Fluid Motion, Physics of Fluids (published by the American Institute of Physics), Vol. 5, No. 9, Sept. 1993, p. S5, and was submitted by Professor Hiroshi Higuchi (Syracuse University). It shows the wake created by a Cessna Citation VI flown immediately above the fog bank over Lake Tahoe at approximately 313 km/h. Aircraft altitude was about 122 m above the lake, and its mass was approximately 8400 kg. The downwash caused the trailing vortices to descend over the fog layer and disturb it to make the flow field in the wake visible. The photograph was taken by P. Bowen for the Cessna Aircraft Company from the tail gunner’s position in a B-25 flying slightly above and ahead of the Cessna. Aerodynamics for Engineering Students Fifth Edition E.L.
