Zero-lift drag coefficient
In aerodynamics, the zero-lift drag coefficient C_ is a dimensionless parameter which relates an aircraft's zero-lift drag force to its size, speed, and flying altitude.
Mathematically, zero-lift drag coefficient is defined as C_ = C_D - C_, where C_D is the total drag coefficient for a given power, speed, and altitude, and C_ is the lift-induced drag coefficient at the same conditions. Thus, zero-lift drag coefficient is reflective of parasitic drag which makes it very useful in understanding how "clean" or streamlined an aircraft's aerodynamics are. For example, a Sopwith Camel biplane of World War I which had many wires and bracing struts as well as fixed landing gear, had a zero-lift drag coefficient of approximately 0.0378. Compare a C_ value of 0.0161 for the streamlined P-51 Mustang of World War II〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Quest for performance: The evolution of modern aircraft. NASA SP-468 )〕 which compares very favorably even with the best modern aircraft.
The drag at zero-lift can be more easily conceptualized as the drag area (f) which is simply the product of zero-lift drag coefficient and aircraft's wing area (C_ \times S where S is the wing area). Parasitic drag experienced by an aircraft with a given drag area is approximately equal to the drag of a flat square disk with the same area which is held perpendicular to the direction of flight. The Sopwith Camel has a drag area of , compared to for the P-51. Both aircraft have a similar wing area, again reflecting the Mustang's superior aerodynamics in spite of much larger size.〔 In another comparison with the Camel, a very large but streamlined aircraft such as the Lockheed Constellation has a considerably smaller zero-lift drag coefficient (0.0211 vs. 0.0378) in spite of having a much larger drag area (34.82 ft² vs. 8.73 ft²).
Furthermore, an aircraft's maximum speed is proportional to the cube root of the ratio of power to drag area, that is:
:V_\ \propto\ \sqrt().〔
==Estimating zero-lift drag〔==
As noted earlier, C_ = C_D - C_.
The total drag coefficient can be estimated as:
:C_D = \frac \rho_0 (S (1.47V)^3 )},
where \eta is the propulsive efficiency, P is engine power in horsepower, \rho_0 sea-level air density in slugs/cubic foot, \sigma is the atmospheric density ratio for an altitude other than sea level, S is the aircraft's wing area in square feet, and V is the aircraft's speed in miles per hour. Substituting 0.002378 for \rho_0, the equation is simplified to:
:C_D = 1.456 \times 10^5 (\frac).
The induced drag coefficient can be estimated as:
:C_ = \frac,
where C_L is the lift coefficient, ''A'' is the aspect ratio, and \epsilon is the aircraft's efficiency factor.
Substituting for C_L gives:
:C_=\frac (W/S)^2,
where W/S is the wing loading in lb/ft².
