How to Evaluate Yawing moment coefficient?

Yawing moment coefficient evaluator uses Yawing Moment Coefficient = Yawing Moment/(Dynamic Pressure*Reference Area*Characteristic Length) to evaluate the Yawing Moment Coefficient, Yawing Moment Coefficient is a measure of the rotation of an aircraft or missile around its vertical axis, influenced by the interaction between the rotating body and the surrounding air or fluid, which affects its stability and control during flight. Yawing Moment Coefficient is denoted by C_n symbol.

How to evaluate Yawing moment coefficient using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Yawing moment coefficient, enter Yawing Moment (𝑵), Dynamic Pressure (q), Reference Area (S) & Characteristic Length (𝓁) and hit the calculate button.
