Summary edit

Description
English: Plots of Coefficients of Lift (CL) and Drag (CD): Notional representations of data provided by Gustave Eiffel from wind tunnel studies that he performed on cambered plates. The results shown shown are for plates of the same camber, but different aspect ratios, as shown. The locations of the variables at angles of attack for 15° and 30° are shown.
Français : Tracés des coefficients de portance (CL, Lift) et de traînée (CD, Drag) : Représentations générales des données fournies par Gustave Eiffel à partir d'études en soufflerie qu'il a réalisées sur des plaques arquées. Les résultats indiqués concernent des plaques ayant la même cambrure, mais des ratios d'aspect différents, comme illustré. Les emplacements des variables aux angles d'attaque de 15° et 30° sont illustrées.
