How Do You Design The Wing Of An Airplane When The Load Is Given?
To size the wing of an airplane, you determine the surface area required to fly at the coefficient of lift you want to fly at. CL=W/(qS) You’ll have to go through the process a few times since when you size the wing, the weight of the plane changes (and other portions of the plane can change that are designed based on the wing size). You then change your surface area for the new weight, adjust all your other values and repeat until your solution converges.
