Flügelhöhe

Flügelhöhe refers to the maximum vertical distance between the lowest point of a wing's trailing edge and the highest point of the wing's leading edge, or vice versa, when the wing is in its neutral or undeformed state. This measurement is particularly relevant in the context of aircraft design and performance, especially for wings with significant camber or twist. Understanding the Flügelhöhe is important for analyzing aerodynamic forces, predicting stall characteristics, and ensuring structural integrity under various flight conditions. In some designs, the Flügelhöhe can also be influenced by the wing's internal structure and the materials used in its construction. It is a parameter that contributes to the overall shape and efficiency of the wing.
