External Aerodynamics

External Aerodynamics is a branch of aerodynamics that studies the flow of air around solid objects in motion, specifically focusing on the forces and moments generated by the interaction between the external airflow and the surface of bodies such as aircraft, missiles, and automobiles, as opposed to internal flow systems.
