Aspect Ratio of Wing Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane = Lateral Plane Span^2/Aircraft Wetted Area
AR_w = b_W^2/S_wet
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane - Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane is the ratio of the span to the chord of an airplane wing.
Lateral Plane Span - (Measured in Meter) - Lateral Plane Span is set of all linear combinations of 2 non-parallel vectors u and v is called the span of u and v.
Aircraft Wetted Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Aircraft Wetted Area is the surface area that interacts with the working fluid or gas.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Lateral Plane Span: 15.3 Meter --> 15.3 Meter No Conversion Required
Aircraft Wetted Area: 10.16 Square Meter --> 10.16 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

AR_w = b_W^2/S_wet --> 15.3^2/10.16

Evaluating ... ...

AR_w = 23.0403543307087

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

23.0403543307087 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

23.0403543307087 ≈ 23.04035 <-- Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane

What is aspect ratio?

aspect ratio, in aviation, the ratio of the span to the chord of an airplane wing, the latter being the length of the straight line drawn from the leading to the trailing edge, at right angles to the length of the wing.

How to Calculate Aspect Ratio of Wing?

Aspect Ratio of Wing calculator uses Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane = Lateral Plane Span^2/Aircraft Wetted Area to calculate the Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane, Aspect Ratio of Wing is defined as the ratio of wingspan to mean chord length or the ratio of the lateral plane span to the aircraft wetted area. It provides a measure of how "spread out" the aircraft is relative to its total surface area. Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane is denoted by AR_w symbol.

How to calculate Aspect Ratio of Wing using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Aspect Ratio of Wing, enter Lateral Plane Span (b_W) & Aircraft Wetted Area (S_wet) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Aspect Ratio of Wing calculation can be explained with given input values -> 23.04035 = 15.3^2/10.16.

FAQ

What is Aspect Ratio of Wing?

Aspect Ratio of Wing is defined as the ratio of wingspan to mean chord length or the ratio of the lateral plane span to the aircraft wetted area. It provides a measure of how "spread out" the aircraft is relative to its total surface area and is represented as AR_w = b_W^2/S_wet or Aspect Ratio in Lateral Plane = Lateral Plane Span^2/Aircraft Wetted Area. Lateral Plane Span is set of all linear combinations of 2 non-parallel vectors u and v is called the span of u and v & The Aircraft Wetted Area is the surface area that interacts with the working fluid or gas.
