Induced Angle of Attack given Circulation at Origin Formula Elements

Variables
Induced Angle of Attack
The Induced Angle of Attack is the angle between the local relative wind and the direction of freestream velocity.
Symbol: αi
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Circulation at Origin
Circulation at Origin is the circulation when the origin is taken at the center of the bound vortex.
Symbol: Γo
Measurement: Momentum DiffusivityUnit: m²/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Wingspan
The Wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip.
Symbol: b
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Freestream Velocity
The Freestream Velocity is the velocity of air far upstream of an aerodynamic body, that is before the body has a chance to deflect, slow down or compress the air.
Symbol: V
Measurement: SpeedUnit: m/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
