Lifting Surfaces<br />
Planform Shapes<br />
Planform Shape: The planform shape <strong>of</strong> the wing will<br />
affect<br />
• Lift<br />
• Drag<br />
• Moment<br />
Surface Area: As mentioned earlier, forces and<br />
moments are proportional to.<br />
F ∼ = C L QS<br />
and<br />
M ∼ = C M QSl<br />
Thus<br />
• Larger wings produce more lift and drag<br />
• Larger wings produce more Moment<br />
• More on chord length, l, shortly<br />
