How to Calculate Drag per Unit Span?
Drag per Unit Span calculator uses Drag Force = (0.86*Dynamic Pressure*Distance from Leading Edge)/sqrt(Reynolds Number) to calculate the Drag Force, The Drag per unit span formula is defined as the ratio of the product of dynamic pressure and distance from the leading edge to the square root of the critical Reynolds number. Drag Force is denoted by FD symbol.
How to calculate Drag per Unit Span using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Drag per Unit Span, enter Dynamic Pressure (q), Distance from Leading Edge (xL) & Reynolds Number (Re) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Drag per Unit Span calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.665383 = (0.86*10*15)/sqrt(6000).
