What is the reference area for the Galileo Probe entry vehic

What is the reference area for the Galileo Probe (entry vehicle)?

What are the Coefficients of Drag and Lift (C_D and C_L) and Lift and Drag?

What is the density scale height for Saturn?

Solution

The drag coefficient is a number use to model all of the dependencies of shape, inclination,and flow conditions on aircraft drag. This equation is a rearrangement of the drag equation . The drag coefficient Cd is equal to the drag D divided by density p times half the velocity V squared times the reference area A.

Cd = D / (A. p .V^2)

The lift coefficient is a number use to model all of the dependencies of shape, inclination,and flow conditions on aircraft drag. This equation is a rearrangement of the drag equation . The drag coefficient Cl is equal to the lift F divided by density p times half the velocity V squared times the reference area A.

Cl= L / (A . p. V^2)

drag force is a force which provides a opp force to any plane and lift force is force which provide upward lit to plane.

Density scale height for Saturn is 59.5 KILOMETER
