Default Re: Static and dynamic pressure.

When you have low dynamic pressure you will have higher static pressure. Then when you hvae high dynamic pressure you have lower static pressure. The forward and aft stagnation points on the wing has low dynamic pressure and high static pressure... the opposite is true for the divergent flow of air (high dynamic, low static).
