How to Calculate Rudder Control Effectiveness?
Rudder Control Effectiveness calculator uses Yawing Moment Coefficient = Yawing Moment with Rudder Deflection Angle*Rudder Deflection Angle to calculate the Yawing Moment Coefficient, Rudder Control Effectiveness is a measure of an aircraft's ability to respond to rudder input, which affects its directional control during flight, particularly during takeoff, landing, and low-speed flight regimes. Yawing Moment Coefficient is denoted by Cn symbol.
How to calculate Rudder Control Effectiveness using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Rudder Control Effectiveness, enter Yawing Moment with Rudder Deflection Angle (Cnδr) & Rudder Deflection Angle (δr) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Rudder Control Effectiveness calculation can be explained with given input values -> 52.5 = 0.96*7.5.
