Lift per unit span for wedge Calculator

The “lift per unit span for a wedge,” denoted as L’, refers to the aerodynamic force generated per unit length of the wedge-shaped object in a fluid flow. This force is exerted perpendicular to the direction of the fluid flow and is a key component of the aerodynamic forces that affect the object’s behavior. 

  • Force per unit span acting on the bottom surface of the wedge (F3′) in N/m
  • Angle of F3′ perpendicular to the freestream (𝜃) in rad
  • Force per unit span acting on the top surface of the wedge (F2′) in N/m
  • Angle of F2′ perpendicular to the freestream (𝜃) in rad
  • Lift per unit span (L’) in N/m
