Dynamic pressure calculator

Dynamic pressure (often denoted as ) is a fundamental concept used to describe the kinetic energy per unit volume of a moving fluid, such as air in the case of aircraft in flight. It plays a crucial role in understanding and analyzing the aerodynamic forces acting on an aircraft.

Dynamic pressure is defined as:

Where:

  • is the dynamic pressure.
  • is the air density.
  • is the velocity of the fluid (in this case, the velocity of the air relative to the aircraft).
