I have not been able to come up with a single equation
that closes for this relationship, so I have fallen
back on a iterated soloution with the computer. I take
airflow thru the disc dia and change the velocity (and
as a result the wt flow) till it makes the desired HP
and then calculate the thrust using momentum. a fairly
simple BASIC program that runs a lot of loops. Vance

Can you plot a few more curves in this chart for me?
