Experiments In Aerodynamics is a book written by Samuel Pierpont Langley and originally published in 1891. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles of aerodynamics and the results of experiments conducted by Langley in the late 19th century. It covers topics such as air resistance, lift, drag, and the behavior of airfoils, as well as the design and construction of early flying machines. The book includes detailed diagrams, photographs, and descriptions of Langley's experiments, which were conducted using wind tunnels and other equipment he designed himself. The experiments described in the book were groundbreaking for their time and helped pave the way for the development of modern aviation. Experiments In Aerodynamics is a fascinating historical document and an important resource for anyone interested in the history of flight and the science of aerodynamics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
