Rate Of Climb Given By Power Calculator

The rate of climb in terms of excess power refers to the rate at which an aircraft can ascend vertically based on the excess power available after overcoming the forces acting against it, such as drag and gravity. The rate of climb in terms of power can be expressed by the following formula: 

Where:

• P_A​: Power Available in Watts
• P_R​: Power Required in Watts
• $W$: Weight in kg.
