or CL
Cm = dCm/d = (dCm/dCL) (dCL/d) Since (dCL/d) >0 (recall CL curve till stall) hence to have Cm < 0 we must have (dCm/dCL) < 0 or CmCL < 0 Both with dCm/d < 0 Physical Limitation: We can only trim an aircraft at a positive This is met only if we have (y-intercept) Cm0 > 0
xcg = distance from wing LE to cg zcg = vertical displacement of cg iw = wing installation angle (angle of incidence)
We assume that: angle of attack is small (<150), CL>>CD and zcg 0 then
Cmcgw = Cmacw + CLw[xcg-xac]/c
