Vertical Tail Lift Curve Slope for given Vertical Tail Efficiency Formula Elements

Variables
Vertical Tail Lift Curve Slope
The Vertical Tail Lift Curve Slope is the slope associated with the lift curve of a vertical tailplane of an aircraft.
Symbol: Cv
Measurement: Reciprocal AngleUnit: rad⁻¹
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Yawing Moment Coefficient
Yawing Moment Coefficient is the coefficient associated with the moment that tends to rotate an airplane about its vertical (or yaw) axis.
Symbol: Cn
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Vertical Tail Volume Ratio
Vertical Tail Volume Ratio relates to the area of the vertical tail, the distance between the centroid of vertical tail area and aircraft's e.g., the wing area, and the wingspan.
Symbol: Vv
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Vertical Tail Efficiency
Vertical Tail Efficiency is the tail efficiency associated with the vertical tail of an aircraft.
Symbol: ηv
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Sideslip Angle
The Sideslip Angle, also called the angle of sideslip, is a term used in fluid dynamics and aerodynamics, and aviation which relates to the rotation of the aircraft centerline from the relative wind.
Symbol: β
