Name Remarks Include Path Unreal Specifiers

float CalcAngleOfAttackDegrees ( const FVector& UpAxis,
const FVector& InAirflowVector
)

 Angle of attack is the angle between the aerofoil and the airflow vector SimModule/AerofoilModule.h  

float CalcCentreOfLift()

 Center of lift moves fore/aft based on current AngleOfAttack SimModule/AerofoilModule.h  

float CalcDragCoefficient ( float InAngleOfAttack,
float InControlSurfaceAngle
)

 Returns drag coefficient for the current angle of attack of the aerofoil surface SimModule/AerofoilModule.h  

float CalcDynamicPressure ( float VelocitySqr,
float InAltitude
)

 Dynamic air pressure = 0.5 * AirDensity * Vsqr SimModule/AerofoilModule.h  

float CalcLiftCoefficient ( float InAngleOfAttack,
float InControlSurfaceAngle
)

 Returns lift coefficient for the current angle of attack of the aerofoil surface Cheating by making control surface part of entire aerofoil movement SimModule/AerofoilModule.h  

FVector GetCenterOfLiftOffset()

   SimModule/AerofoilModule.h  

FVector GetForce ( const FVector& v,
float Altitude,
