Lift coefficient

Input(s)

ρ\rho: Density (kg/m3)\left(\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\right)

v: True Air Speed (m/s)(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}).

L: Lift Force (Newton)

S: Planform Area (m2)\left(\mathrm{m}^{2}\right)

Output(s)

CLC_{L}: Lift Coefficient (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

CL=2Lρv2 S\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{L}}=2 * \frac{\mathrm{L}}{\rho * \mathrm{v}^{2} * \mathrm{~S}}
