Do turbofan nacelles generate lift?
Most jet nacelles contribute little or no lift, but there is at least one highly notable exception.
The airflow inside the nacelle is dominated by the engine and any chance to create differential pressure between upper and lower leading sections is kept negligible in order not to disrupt the intake flow.
The outside is more of a stubby fuselage than an annular wing and low drag dominates the design. The avoidance of interference with the leading edge of the wing, part way along and just above, is also a major consideration for the upper profile. Lift is not really considered, and is not present to any significant extent.
Having said that, for a large high-bypass turbofan, when placed well forward the lifting area can become significant at high angles of attack (whether positive or negative). It can be powerful enough to move the centre of lift forwards, reducing pitch stability and at steep angles leading to a tendency for the angle to diverge further. When Boeing were developing the Max variant of the 737, its new engines suffered just this problem on takeoff and landing. Boeing's solution was to introduce a Manoeuvring Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS) which automatically operated the elevator to reduce the angle sharply if it got too steep. Tragically, in their hurry they botched the job, two commercial flights crashed fatally and the 737 Max has been grounded indefinitely until they can get a fix certified.
