STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Vertical Tail Moment = -(Vertical Tail Moment Arm*Vertical Tail Side Force)
N_v = -(𝒍_v*Y_v)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Vertical Tail Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Vertical Tail Moment is the moment produced by the vertical tailplane of an aircraft due to the side force acting on it.
Vertical Tail Moment Arm - (Measured in Meter) - The Vertical Tail Moment Arm is the distance between the centroid of the vertical tail shape and the center of gravity of the aircraft.
Vertical Tail Side Force - (Measured in Newton) - Vertical Tail Side Force is the side force acting on the vertical tail of an aircraft.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Vertical Tail Moment Arm: 1.2 Meter --> 1.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Vertical Tail Side Force: -4.235 Newton --> -4.235 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

What causes Dutch roll in aircraft?

Dutch roll is a natural aerodynamic phenomenon in swept-wing aircraft. It is caused by design having slightly weaker directional stability than lateral stability.

How to Calculate Moment Produced by Vertical Tail for given Side Force?

Moment Produced by Vertical Tail for given Side Force calculator uses Vertical Tail Moment = -(Vertical Tail Moment Arm*Vertical Tail Side Force) to calculate the Vertical Tail Moment, Moment Produced by Vertical Tail for given Side Force is a measure of the rotating force that the vertical tail of an aircraft produces in response to a sideways force, calculated as the product of the vertical tail's moment arm and the side force, with the moment arm being the distance from the aircraft's axis of rotation to the vertical tail's centre of pressure, and the side force being the horizontal force acting on the vertical tail.
