Force per unit span on the top surface of the wedge with respect to pressure Calculator

The “force per unit span acting on the top of the wedge,” denoted as F2′, refers to the aerodynamic force exerted on a unit length of the top surface of a wedge-shaped object that is exposed to a fluid flow. This force is generated due to the interaction between the fluid and the surface of the wedge, resulting in pressure and shear forces. 

  • Ratio of total pressure at bottom surface of wedge to the static pressure at bottom surface of wedge (p01/p1)
  • Ratio of total pressure at top surface of wedge to the static pressure at top surface of wedge (p02/p2)
  • Static pressure at bottom surface of wedge (p1) in N/m^2 
  • Length of the face of the wedge (l) in m
