Cm=0.01 Graphs Of Cl/ Graph of Cl/Cd V/s Empennage Aerofoil selection Horizontal Tail Area Area(HTA) = 0.2 * 0.56 = 0.11m 2
Mean Aerodynamic Chords = 0.3153
Aspect Ratio = AR = 2.33
Length: b(hta) AR *S = b 2 2.33 * 0.11 = b 2 b = 0.505m
Area Of Elevator: Se = 0.3 (HTA) = 0.3(0.11) Se = 0.033m 2
Elevator : Le = b(HTA)/2 = 0.505/2 Le = 0.2525m
Taper ratio = = 0.6 Cr = 2(0.11)/0.505(1+0.6) Cr = 0.272 Ct=0.16 Aileron : Length = 0.3462m Width = 0.056m Area = L * W = 0.3462*0.561 = 0.19m 2
Flaps: Width = 20% of C = 0.20 * 0.28 Width = 0.056m
Length = 60% of 0.935 = 0.561m Vertical Tail Area Vertical Tail Area = 0.40 * HTA =0.40 * 0.11 VTA = 0.044m Area Of Rudder: Area Of Rudder = SR =0.25 * 0.044 SR = 0.25 * 0.044 SR = 0.011m Fin Dimensions Aspect ratio = AR = 1.8 For length of fin: b v = VTA * AR = 0.044 * 1.8 b v = 0.281m Taper ratio = = 0.6 Cr = 2(0.11)/0.505(1+0.6) Cr = 0.272 Ct=0.16
Height of Rudder H r = 0.75 *0.281 H r = 0.21m
