Power Requirement for Flying Bike


 

The major work on this paper is to find out the required power needed to let the bike fly in air in order to overcome the drag. Since drag is mandatory for any object moving with high velocity against air due to its friction at different altitudes for different pressure. And to overcome such air friction the body is streamlined to get the maximum attainable speed. The streamline body in this case is the Airfoil for which the calculations is made taking angle of contact at 0 and at 10 maximum because beyond 10 the coefficient of lift decreases rather increasing the coefficient of drag. And the drag part is the always surface area during consideration of any body.

Abstract


The major work on this paper is to find out the required power needed to let the bike fly in air in order to overcome the drag. Since drag is mandatory for any object moving with high velocity against air due to its friction at different altitudes for different pressure. And to overcome such air friction the body is streamlined to get the maximum attainable speed. The streamline body in this case is the Airfoil for which the calculations is made taking angle of contact at 0 and at 10 maximum because beyond 10 the coefficient of lift decreases rather increasing the coefficient of drag. And the drag part is the always surface area during consideration of any body.
