Lift Coefficient of Blade of Wind Rotor - Lift Coefficient of Blade of Wind Rotor is the ratio of the lift force on the blade to the force of the free stream wind.
Lift Force - (Measured in Newton) - The lift force, lifting force or simply lift is the sum of all the forces on a body that force it to move perpendicular to the direction of flow.
Density of air VC - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of air VC is air density at normal condition.
Rotor Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Rotor Radius is the radius of rotation of the rotor.
Free Stream Wind Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Free Stream Wind Speed is the velocity of the free stream which is the air far upstream of an aerodynamic body i.e. before the body has a chance to deflect, slow down or compress the air.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Lift Force: 1000 Newton --> 1000 Newton No Conversion Required
Density of air VC: 1.225 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1.225 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
