where:
CP = Thrust Coefficient (Dimensionless)
T = Thrust produced by the propeller (N)
ρ = Density of fluid (kg/m³)
n = Rotational speed of propeller (rev/s)
D = Diameter of the propeller (m)
- The system is in steady state.
- Fluid is incompressible.
- The flow is at the propeller disk is uniform.
- The fluid behaves as an ideal gas.
- There are no propeller interaction effects.
