Thrust Coefficient For a Turboprop Engine Calculator

The thrust coefficient for a turboprop engine is a dimensionless parameter that characterizes the efficiency of the engine in converting engine power into thrust. Turboprop engines are a type of aircraft propulsion system that combines elements of both a jet engine and a propeller.

The thrust coefficient is defined as the ratio of the thrust force produced by the propulsion system to the dynamic pressure of the incoming air. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

where,

where:

• C_T​ is the thrust coefficient,
• $T$ is the thrust force,
• $\rho$ is the air density,
• $V$ is the airspeed,
• $A$ is the reference area.
