Elevator Deflection Angle given Gearing Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Elevator Deflection Angle = Gearing Ratio*Stick Length*Stick Deflection Angle
δ_e = 𝑮*𝒍_s*δ_s
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Elevator Deflection Angle - (Measured in Radian) - The Elevator Deflection Angle is the angle made by the elevator of an aircraft with the horizontal for an applied stick force.
Gearing Ratio - (Measured in 1 per Meter) - Gearing Ratio is a measure of the mechanical advantage provided by the control system of an aircraft.
Stick Length - (Measured in Meter) - Stick Length is the length of the control stick (to move the control surface) of an aircraft.
Stick Deflection Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Stick Deflection Angle is the angle made by the control stick (used to move control surface) of an aircraft with the vertical.

Flight Velocity given Elevator Hinge Moment Coefficient

LaTeX Go Flight Velocity = sqrt(Hinge Moment/(Hinge Moment Coefficient*0.5*Density*Elevator Area*Elevator Chord))

Elevator Area given Hinge Moment Coefficient

LaTeX Go Elevator Area = Hinge Moment/(Hinge Moment Coefficient*0.5*Density*Flight Velocity^2*Elevator Chord)

Elevator Hinge moment coefficient

LaTeX Go Hinge Moment Coefficient = Hinge Moment/(0.5*Density*Flight Velocity^2*Elevator Area*Elevator Chord)

Elevator Hinge Moment given Hinge Moment Coefficient

LaTeX Go Hinge Moment = Hinge Moment Coefficient*0.5*Density*Flight Velocity^2*Elevator Area*Elevator Chord

Elevator Deflection Angle given Gearing Ratio Formula

LaTeX Go

Elevator Deflection Angle = Gearing Ratio*Stick Length*Stick Deflection Angle
δ_e = 𝑮*𝒍_s*δ_s

What does hinge moment coefficient depend upon?

Hinge moment coefficient is a function of several factors such as tail angle of attack, tail setting angle, etc. Due to downwash, the angle of attack at the tail will be more.
