Variables Used
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.
Lift Coefficient - The Lift Coefficient is a dimensionless coefficient that relates the lift generated by a lifting body to the fluid density around the body, the fluid velocity and an associated reference area.
Dynamic Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Dynamic Pressure is simply a convenient name for the quantity which represents the decrease in the pressure due to the velocity of the fluid.
Area for Flow - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area for flow decreases velocity increases and vice versa. For subsonic flows, M < 1, the behavior resembles that for incompressible flows.

Calculating the lift force acting on the body

A fluid flowing around the surface of an object exerts a force on it. Lift is the component of this force that is perpendicular to the oncoming flow direction. It contrasts with the drag force, which is the component of the force parallel to the flow direction.

How to Calculate Lift Force?

Lift Force calculator uses Lift Force = Lift Coefficient*Dynamic Pressure*Area for Flow to calculate the Lift Force, The Lift Force formula is defined as the product of lift coefficient, dynamic pressure and area. Lift conventionally acts in an upward direction in order to counter the force of gravity, but it can act in any direction at right angles to the flow. Lift Force is denoted by FL symbol.

How to calculate Lift Force using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Lift Force, enter Lift Coefficient (CL), Dynamic Pressure (q) & Area for Flow (A) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Lift Force calculation can be explained with given input values -> 550 = 1.1*10*50.
