Wing Area Given Skin Friction Coefficient Calculator

Wing area refers to the total surface area of an aircraft’s wings, typically measured in square units such as square meters or square feet. It is a critical geometric parameter influencing aerodynamic performance. Wing area plays a key role in determining lift and drag forces, as well as aspects like maneuverability and fuel efficiency. Accurate calculation of wing area is essential in aircraft design and analysis, often being part of formulas for lift and drag coefficients. The formula to calculate Wing area as follows:

Where:

  • is the wing area in m2,
  • is a  reference area (flat plate area) in m2,
  • is a Foam factor drag
  • is a Skin friction Coefficient.
