Zero-lift axis
text:
A cambered aerofoil generates no lift when it is moving parallel to an axis called the zero-lift axis When the angle of attack on an aerofoil is measured relative to the zero-lift axis it is true to say the lift coefficient is zero when the angle of attack is zero. For this reason, on a cambered aerofoil the zero-lift line is better than the chord line when describing the angle of attack. When symmetric aerofoils are moving parallel to the chord line of the aerofoil, zero lift is generated. Howe
