STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Centrifugal Force = Lift Force+Thrust*sin(Thrust Angle)-Mass of Aircraft*[g]*cos(Flight Path Angle)
F_c = F_L+T*sin(σ_T)-m*[g]*cos(γ)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 2 Functions, 6 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)
cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)

Variables Used

Centrifugal Force - (Measured in Newton) - Centrifugal Force is the apparent outward force on a mass when it is rotated.
Lift Force - (Measured in Newton) - The Lift Force, lifting force or simply lift is the sum of all the forces on a body that force it to move perpendicular to the direction of flow.
Thrust - (Measured in Newton) - Thrust denotes the force exerted by the engine to propel an aircraft forward.
Thrust Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Thrust angle is defined as the angle between thrust vector and flight path (or flight velocity) direction.
Mass of Aircraft - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Aircraft is the total mass of the plane at any phase of its mission.
Flight Path Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Flight Path Angle is defined as the angle between horizontal and the flight velocity vector, which describes whether the aircraft is climbing or descending.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Lift Force: 200 Newton --> 200 Newton No Conversion Required

What is Centrifugal force?

Centrifugal force is the “equal and opposite reaction” of the aircraft to the change in direction and acts equal and opposite to the horizontal component of lift.

How to Calculate Centrifugal Force in Accelerated Flight?

Centrifugal Force in Accelerated Flight calculator uses Centrifugal Force = Lift Force+Thrust*sin(Thrust Angle)-Mass of Aircraft*[g]*cos(Flight Path Angle) to calculate the Centrifugal Force, The Centrifugal Force in Accelerated Flight is a fictitious force that appears to act on objects moving in a circular path. It arises due to inertia and is perceived by an observer in the rotating frame of reference, this force acts perpendicular to the direction of the velocity vector. Centrifugal Force is denoted by F_c symbol.
