Pull-up maneuver radius Formula Elements

Variables
Constants
Turn Radius
Turn Radius is the radius of the flight path causing the airplane to turn in a circular path.
Symbol: R
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity
Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity refers to the velocity of an aircraft during a sharp pitch-up maneuver, often resulting in a rapid ascent.
Symbol: Vpull-up
Measurement: SpeedUnit: m/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Load Factor
Load Factor is the ratio of the aerodynamic force on the aircraft to the gross weight of the aircraft.
Symbol: n
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Gravitational acceleration on Earth
Gravitational acceleration on Earth means that the velocity of an object in free fall will increase by 9.8 m/s2 every second.
Symbol: [g]
Value: 9.80665 m/s²

How to Evaluate Pull-up maneuver radius?

Pull-up maneuver radius evaluator uses Turn Radius = (Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity^2)/([g]*(Load Factor-1)) to evaluate the Turn Radius, The Pull-up maneuver radius refers to the radius of the circle that an aircraft can describe when executing a pull-up maneuver, in aviation, a pull-up maneuver involves the aircraft transitioning from level flight or descent to a climb, typically at a steep angle, the radius of the pull-up maneuver indicates the size of the circle that the aircraft describes during this maneuver. Turn Radius is denoted by R symbol.

How to evaluate Pull-up maneuver radius using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Pull-up maneuver radius, enter Pull-Up Maneuver Velocity (Vpull-up) & Load Factor (n) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Pull-up maneuver radius
