Load Factor given Turn Rate Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Load Factor = sqrt((Flight Velocity*Turn Rate/[g])^2+1)
n = sqrt((V*ω/[g])^2+1)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Constants Used

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

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Load Factor - Load Factor is the ratio of the aerodynamic force on the aircraft to the gross weight of the aircraft.
Flight Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flight Velocity refers to the speed at which an aircraft moves through the air.
Turn Rate - (Measured in Radian per Second) - Turn Rate is the rate at which an aircraft executes a turn expressed in degrees per second.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flight Velocity: 200 Meter per Second --> 200 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Turn Rate: 1.36 Degree per Second --> 0.0237364778271184 Radian per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

n = sqrt((V*ω/[g])^2+1) --> sqrt((200*0.0237364778271184/[g])^2+1)

Evaluating ... ...

n = 1.11100970831233

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.11100970831233 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.11100970831233 ≈ 1.11101 <-- Load Factor

What is sustained turn rate?

A sustained turn rate is the turn rate that can be sustained as long as you want because you can build up enough speed to make a similar turn as soon as the last one finishes.

How to Calculate Load Factor given Turn Rate?

Load Factor given Turn Rate calculator uses Load Factor = sqrt((Flight Velocity*Turn Rate/[g])^2+1) to calculate the Load Factor, Load Factor given Turn Rate is a measure of the increase in an aircraft's weight due to centrifugal force during a turn, calculated by considering the velocity and turn rate of the aircraft, and the acceleration due to gravity. Load Factor is denoted by n symbol.
