The
drag polar of a typical passenger jet in take-off configuration can be expressed as:
CD=CD0+kCL2C_D = C_{D0} + k C_L^2CD=CD0+kCL2
where:
- CDC_DCD is the drag coefficient,
- CD0C_{D0}CD0 is the zero-lift drag coefficient (parasite drag),
- CLC_LCL is the lift coefficient,
- kkk is the induced drag factor.
Typical Values for a Passenger Jet in Take-Off Configuration:
- CD0C_{D0}CD0 (zero-lift drag coefficient): 0.02 - 0.04 (considering extended flaps and slats)
- kkk (induced drag factor): 0.04 - 0.08
- CLC_LCL range during take-off: 0.5 - 2.0
Now, I will plot the
drag polar curve for a typical take-off configuration.
Drag Polar of a Typical Passenger Jet in Take-Off Configuration
Here is the
drag polar for a typical passenger jet in
take-off configuration. It shows the relationship between the
lift coefficient (CLC_LCL) and the
drag coefficient (CDC_DCD), following the equation:
CD=CD0+kCL2C_D = C_{D0} + k C_L^2CD=CD0+kCL2
where:
- CD0C_{D0}CD0 = 0.03 (zero-lift drag coefficient),
- kkk = 0.06 (induced drag factor),
- CLC_LCL range = 0.5 to 2.0 (typical for take-off).
This curve illustrates how drag increases with lift, which is crucial for performance analysis during take-off and climb. Let me know if you need any modifications or further details!
