Wing area

Aerodynamics is the process by which the airfoil is moved from one side to the other side of the wing, and the other side is moved from the other side of the wing to the other side of the wing.
[Names of each plane part]
The length of a wing's planform from side to side is called the wing span, the length from front to back is called the chord length, and the area of ​​the planform is called the wing area (Figure 8). The chord length changes along the wing span except for rectangular wings, and the ratio (chord length at the wing tip)/(chord length at the wing root) is called the taper ratio.

*Some of the terminology that refers to "wing area" is listed below.

…翼を空力的に調べる場合，翼型だけを二次元翼，翼型と平面形の組合せを三次元翼としている。
［平面形各部の名称］
　翼の平面形において左右の長さを翼幅wing span，前後方向の長さを翼弦長chord length，平面形の面積を翼面積wing areaという(図8)。翼弦長は矩形翼(長方形の翼)以外では翼幅に沿って変化し，(翼端翼弦長)/(付け根翼弦長)をテーパー比taper ratioという。…
