curprev 10:3510:35, 12 June 2024‎ Dolphin51 talk contribs‎ 102,834 bytes +306‎ →‎False explanation based on equal transit-time: It is widely recognised that it is incorrect to suggest equal transit time applies to a body generating lift. It is also incorrect to suggest equal transit time never exists in the flow around a body. If a body is generating no lift, equal transit time exists in the flow past that body. I have tried to remove the flaw of suggesting that equal transit time never exists. undo
