What Does TE Stand For?
TE stands for Trailing Edge
Trailing Edge (TE) refers to the rear boundary of an airfoil, wing, or similar aerodynamic surface, where airflow separates from the surface. It is a critical area for controlling aerodynamic performance, influencing lift, drag, and overall stability during flight. Understanding the characteristics of the trailing edge is essential in fields such as aerodynamics, aerospace engineering, and related disciplines to optimize the design and functionality of air vehicles.
