Operating empty weight Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Operating Empty Weight = Gross Weight-Useful Weight
WE = WG-WU
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Operating Empty Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Operating empty weight is the sum of the empty weight and the crew plus their baggage.
Gross Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Gross Weight of Aircraft refers to the total weight of an aircraft, including its structure, payload (such as passengers, cargo, and fuel), and any additional equipment or provisions.
Useful Weight - (Measured in Kilogram) - Useful Weight refers to the portion of the aircraft's total weight that is available for carrying payload, passengers, and cargo, excluding the weight of the structure and essential equipment.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Gross Weight: 16755 Kilogram --> 16755 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Useful Weight: 7865 Kilogram --> 7865 Kilogram No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
WE = WG-WU --> 16755-7865
Evaluating ... ...
WE = 8890
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
8890 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
8890 Kilogram <-- Operating Empty Weight
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Maximum take off weight
Go Maximum Take Off Weight = Payload/(1-((Operating Empty Weight/Takeoff Weight)+(Fuel Load/Takeoff Weight)))
Operating empty weight from unity equation
Go Operating Empty Weight = Takeoff Weight-(Payload+Fuel Load)
Fuel load from unity equation
Go Fuel Load = Takeoff Weight-(Operating Empty Weight+Payload)
Take off weight from Unity equation
Go Takeoff Weight = Operating Empty Weight+Payload+Fuel Load
Payload weight from Unity equation
Go Payload = Takeoff Weight-Operating Empty Weight-Fuel Load
Zero fuel weight given mission fuel, reserve and take off weight
Go Zero Fuel Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load-Reserve Fuel
Take off weight given reserve, mission and zero fuel weight
Go Takeoff Weight = Zero Fuel Weight+Reserve Fuel+Fuel Load
Mission fuel given take off, reserve and zero fuel weight
Go Fuel Load = Takeoff Weight-Zero Fuel Weight-Reserve Fuel
Operating empty weight
Go Operating Empty Weight = Gross Weight-Useful Weight
Gross weight
Go Gross Weight = Operating Empty Weight+Useful Weight
Useful load
Go Useful Weight = Gross Weight-Operating Empty Weight
Operating empty weight considering zero fuel weight
Go Operating Empty Weight = Zero Fuel Weight-Payload
Payload of aircraft
Go Payload = Zero Fuel Weight-Operating Empty Weight
Zero fuel weight
Go Zero Fuel Weight = Operating Empty Weight+Payload
Landing weight given zero fuel weight and reserve fuel weight
Go Landing Weight = Zero Fuel Weight+Reserve Fuel
Zero fuel weight given reserve and landing weight
Go Zero Fuel Weight = Landing Weight-Reserve Fuel
Landing weight given take off weight and mission fuel weight
Go Landing Weight = Takeoff Weight-Fuel Load

Operating empty weight Formula

Operating Empty Weight = Gross Weight-Useful Weight
