Question: wing span b = 22 m wing area S = 50 m Oswald efficiency factor e = 0.8 maximum lift coefficient CLmax maximum load

wing span b = 22 m wing area S = 50 m

wing span b = 22 m wing area S = 50 m Oswald efficiency factor e = 0.8 maximum lift coefficient CLmax maximum load factor thrust specific fuel consumption TSFC = 1.4 nmax = 3 = 0.6 kN (kN h) maximum fuel mass mmf = maximum payload mass mmp = 5,100 kg 1,250 kg Zero Lift drag coefficient = 0.017 Empty aeroplane mass = 8600 Total max take-off weight = 14300 Assume that the fuel tank is half full, the aeroplane carries a payload of 500 kg and flies at 5,000 m altitude. Calculate the minimum radius of a level turn. Also calculate the associated flight velocity, bank angle and thrust required. Finally, calculate the thrust required for straight level and unaccelerated flight at the same speed and alti- tude and compare it to the thrust required for the level turn.
