RadiusOfTurn(AirSpeed, double)

Calculation for the Radius Of Turn

Declaration

public static LinearDistance RadiusOfTurn(AirSpeed airspeed, double rateOfTurn)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
AirSpeed	airspeed	Air speed value used in calculation
double	rateOfTurn	Rate of turn

Returns

Type	Description
LinearDistance	Radius of Turn in either KM or NM

Remarks

Static member

Exceptions

Type	Condition

RadiusOfTurn(double)

Calculation for the Radius Of Turn

Declaration

public LinearDistance RadiusOfTurn(double rateOfTurn)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
double	rateOfTurn	Rate of turn

Returns

Type	Description
LinearDistance	Radius of Turn in either KM or NM

RateOfTurn(Angle, bool)

Calculation for the Rate Of Turn

Declaration

public double RateOfTurn(Angle angleOfBank, bool override3DegreesLimit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Angle	angleOfBank	Value of the angle of bank (α)
bool	override3DegreesLimit	Override to calculate an R value greater than 3 degrees/second

Returns

Type	Description
double	Rate of turn (R) in degrees/second

Remarks

This is calculated as follows:
R = (6 355 tan α)/π V, where V is the TAS in km/h; and
2) R = (3 431 tan α)/πV, where V is the TAS in kt
up to a maximum value of 3 degrees/second unless the overide is set

RateOfTurn(AirSpeed, Angle, bool)

Calculation for the Rate Of Turn using a static member where speed in passed as a variable

Declaration

public static double RateOfTurn(AirSpeed speed, Angle angleOfBank, bool override3DegreesLimit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
AirSpeed	speed	Air speed value used in the calculation
Angle	angleOfBank	Value of the angle of bank (α)
bool	override3DegreesLimit	Override to calculate an R value greater than 3 degrees/second

Returns

Type	Description
double	Rate of turn (R) in degrees/second

Remarks

This is calculated as follows:
R = (6 355 tan α)/π V, where V is the TAS in km/h; and
2) R = (3 431 tan α)/πV, where V is the TAS in kt
up to a maximum value of 3 degrees/second unless the overide is set
