heal.abstract	The purpose of this work is to show, through analytical-numerical calculations, how the airfoil characteristics (pressure distribution, lift, drag) change, with respect to the standard characteristics for translational motion, when a rotational motion is involved. All the existing experimental results concerning the aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils (airfoil section data) are produced for airfoils in translational motion. As far as the authors know there are no experiments showing how these characteristics are influenced by the existence of flow curvature effects. Many numerical models use airfoil section data as input in order to calculate particular airfoil motions for special applications (i. e. wind turbines). The negligence, though, of the flow curvature effects could lead to erroneous results. 2 Refs.	en
