Mean Aerodynamic Chord For Tapered Wing Calculator

The Mean Aerodynamic Chord (MAC) for a tapered wing is the average chord length of the wing, calculated from the root chord to the tip chord. It provides a single representative chord length for aerodynamic analysis and design considerations. The MAC accounts for the tapering shape of the wing, aiding in stability and performance evaluations of aircraft configurations.

Where:

  • Cr is the Root chord in m
  • λ is the taper ratio.
