Load Factor given Pull-Down Maneuver Radius Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Load Factor = ((Pull-Down Maneuver Velocity^2)/(Turn Radius*[g]))-1
n = ((V_pull-down^2)/(R*[g]))-1
This formula uses 1 Constants, 3 Variables

Constants Used

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

Variables Used

Load Factor - Load Factor is the ratio of the aerodynamic force on the aircraft to the gross weight of the aircraft.
Pull-Down Maneuver Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Pull-Down Maneuver Velocity refers to the velocity of an aircraft during a sharp pitch-down maneuver, often resulting in a rapid descent.
Turn Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Turn Radius is the radius of the flight path causing the airplane to turn in a circular path.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pull-Down Maneuver Velocity: 797.71 Meter per Second --> 797.71 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Turn Radius: 29495.25 Meter --> 29495.25 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

n = ((V_pull-down^2)/(R*[g]))-1 --> ((797.71^2)/(29495.25*[g]))-1

Evaluating ... ...

n = 1.19997282137061

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.19997282137061 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.19997282137061 ≈ 1.199973 <-- Load Factor

Velocity for given Pull-Up Maneuver Radius

Go Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity = sqrt(Turn Radius*[g]*(Load Factor-1))

Load Factor given Pull-UP Maneuver Radius

Go Load Factor = 1+((Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity^2)/(Turn Radius*[g]))

Pull-up maneuver radius

Go Turn Radius = (Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity^2)/([g]*(Load Factor-1))

Pull-Up Maneuver Rate

Go Turn Rate = [g]*(Pull-Up Load Factor-1)/Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity

Load Factor given Pull-Down Maneuver Radius Formula

Load Factor = ((Pull-Down Maneuver Velocity^2)/(Turn Radius*[g]))-1
n = ((V_pull-down^2)/(R*[g]))-1

What is lag roll?

A lag displacement roll called a "lag roll" is a maneuver used to reduce the tail angle by bringing the attacker from lead pursuit to pure or even lag pursuit.
