- Zero Lift Anglesearch for term
-
Non-symmetrical airfoils still generate lift even if their angle of attack to the airflow is zero. The negative angle at which they generate no lift is called the zero lift angle. For most airfoils this is about -3 degrees, but it is very dependent on the Reynolds number and the exact shape of the airfoil.
